Can a bank report a repossession on a credit report when the local dealer co-signer was the one that repossessed the vehicle and paid the bank in full?

lets get the FACTS straight. Heres what I'm seeing. A(person) buys car from (dealer) D.D "co-signs" the loan. A defaults on loan and D repos the car. B(bank)reports repo on A CR. Simple. A had loan in default, got repoed. Repo goes on CR because it happened. WHO did the repo is immaterial. Repo doesnt go on D because D "PIF".

Is it legal for the lender to sell your 5-year past due loan to a collection agency and then the agency repossess your car in Texas?

YES, your loan was in default. NOW. the lender will likely get a judgment against you if the car doesnt sell for enough to pay the balance on the loan. Dont forget the interest for the last 5 yrs.

Hey, you did good. A free ride for five years before you got caught! Say a grand for those last three payments, about $450 for 5 years interest, a couple hundred for repo costs, and three late charges (don't let them charge a late fee for every month you were late - they can only charge one for each payment missed). So you rode for less than $35 a month.

Are you likely to have to pay the balance if the finance company cannot get full amount for the repossessed car and how much does it hurt your credit?

The lilelihood is very good, almost certain, you will have a balance due after the sale. The only way they could get the full amount due is IF you had made a HUGE downpayment. You will have a repo and a judgment on your CR IF you don't pay any deficiency balance.
