Repossession

Depending on which state you are in only a licensed repossesor can go and physically take possesion of the vehicle. You will more than likely have to take the buyer to court and once judgment has been made in your favor a baliff of the court can take the vehicle and turn it over to you.

No. Buyers remorse does not apply to automobiles.

If your car isn't paid off at the time you wish to sell it, things are a little more complex. You need to close the loan with your lender by paying off the balance with the proceeds of the sale so that you can present a clear title to the buyer. If however, you have to sell the car for less than you owe on it, you will need to pay the balance of the loan out of your own pocket to the lender.

It depends on how many square people or animals there are.

It doesn't just go away. From your question I assume you live in another state. Some states are better than others at sharing driver records. You might find sometime in the future your local DMV will require a clearance letter from CA before renewing your license.

Sorry..you put "private dealer". Is he a dealer or a Private Party? For the future it would help to know what state you are in. Not all states offer temp tags. The dealer made a sale. Ask him to drive it home for you with his dealer plates on. Better yet, you should insure and register it.

If your reference to 3.1 is the engine displacement, it sounds like it might be a Grand Am or some other Ponticac/GM car. We'll give it a shot though. If it's a fuel injection engine, I'd pull the cover off the assembly that the throttle cable goes to. In my '96 Sunfire, there is a rotating "wheel" which is what feeds fuel to the injector system. It's operated by the cable. That wheel, or whatever it moves, might be sticking due to age, wear or dirt. It's shoot it real well with good old WD-40 and try it again. Check the gas pedal and associated linkage too. It sure sounds like something is sticking or binding and you'll have to determine where. (If, indeed, this is the case) If that doesn't work, let us know and well try go give you some other bogus advice! ;) FriPilot

if the vehicle had a stereo system in it when u bought it, u have lost the system that was in it when reposessed most state laws say that if an item is "wired","taped"or otherwise "fashioned" to the vehicle it is considered a part of the vehicle and not personal property. so in other words if you wired in a stereo then no you cant get it back. if you have loose items in the vehicle i.e. cloths,papers,trash you can get that back in a certain time frame

• Cars repossessed laws in Canada a vary by provine.Whether your car will be repossessed depends on such factors as the province you live in and how for behind you are with your payments.Vehicle repossessed is negative impact on your credit rating.

If it's electric you have to "pop" it from the middle, NOT from where the key lock is.

CAUTION....CAUTIONOne needs to be VERY Careful about USING A slim Jim on some of the Later model cars (not sure if Buick falls in this category) which have air bags in the door panels. I'm told by the local police department that they will no longer do this to unlock a car. Another police department had a policeman killed when he inserted a slim Jim into a car door and hit the air bag mechanisim. The air bag exploded forcing the slim Jim upward through the neck and lower throat of the police officer....KILLING HIM.

Yes it can be dangerous work. Every so often you can have a call where there is some guy that isn't quite willing to give up his vehicle that easily. It also depends on the area of the city you are going into (every city has a "danger zone") in their midst. Marcy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Been doing it for years and have never fallen into a situation that was life or well being threatening. It comes down to one thing. Not where you are but how you present yourself. Play the Cowboy and get shot or play the nice guy and have people hand you their cars. Y-THINK-Y

They are still going to make you pay the fine.

Indictment is a little different from being arrested "on the spot". A Grand Jury usually will hand down an indictment, where you will later have to appear for formal booking at the police station, unless they come and arrest you. In either case, you would then appear before a Judge for a preliminary hearing, where you could plead guilty, if you wish, but the proceedings generally go through the evidence they have against a person being chaged in the indictment, or at least enough evidence to convince the presiding judge to bind the case over for trial. Also, bail should be set where it is allowable.

From what I've read (I have the same situation) if there is an "AND/OR" on the title, only one needs to sign. If there is no "and/or" both need to sign.

Commonly found in account agreements at banks and credit unions, cross collateralization refers to money that is owed to the creditor being "backed" by all or specific other accounts the debtor may hold. An example of this would be a car loan with a bank where the debtor's savings and checking account are used as cross collateral for the car loan. If the debtor fails to pay the car loan, the bank may take funds from the debtor's checking and/or savings account to cover the payment or the loss in addition to any recovery allowed from action against the vehicle itself (such as repossession.

I just went through the same situation and here in Ohio no they can not. It is breaking the Truth in Lending Act. My husband and I hired a lawyer (pro-bono) and now are in the midst of a huge class action lawsuit against ford.

A title transfer can be done in less than an hour if you are OUTSIDE of Cook County. Sorry...

Be Nice About This. Try To Reach Him Or His Family Or Friends. After All It Is His Car. Do Your Absolute Best To Locate The Buyer. You can See Your County Attorney For The Legal Ramifications Of This

I CALLED LO JACK AND THEY SAID NO. ONLY THE REGISTERED OWNER MAY ACTIVATE LO JACK AFTER CALLING THE POLICE AND MAKING A REPORT.

They cannot keep the car you were attempting to trade.

They can and will take back the car that they were trying to get you financed on.

They would be in possesion of a contract for the sale of a vehicle for a certain amount. If that amount cannot be collected from you in cash or a bank in the form of a loan, then you are in default of payment.

Hourly or commission. You can work in this field for 15+ years and make the same as a guy that just started. Not a recommended "career". Unless you are a "pro" which is difficult status to attain. Can be fun sometimes but for me mostly dealing with automotive engineers that don't want you to put aftermarket product in cars was not a good time...

P.S. Honda and Toyota blow everything away (imo)

Yes sell whatever you can because the bank will auction your car at below the market after they repo it(sometimes way below market)and you get to pay the difference between your TOTAL LOAN AMOUNT including the interest and what they get at auction.

If you sell it for enough money to pay it off and pay it off with that money, you probably can. However if you don't pay it off the lender probably still has the right to repossess it and void the sale, because it did not have a "clear title" when you sold it and the buyer should have known that by reading the title.

I for one would never buy a used car from a private seller that did not have a "clear title" showing that he indeed owned the car without outstanding loan debt on it.

Another option would be to sell it to a car dealer. They will find out from your lender what you owe, reduce the amount they offer you by that amount (if this makes the offer negative they will not buy the car), and then pay off the loan to clear the title so that they can sell it. You are very unlikely to get much this way and they are likely to refuse to buy your car if they find it won't be profitable for them.

Yes, because writing on someone's car that you don't even know who it belongs to is what the government calls "vandalism", or the destruction or alteration of one's property without consent.

Usually through a bank or finance company check with your bank they can probably tell you who to contact also check the yellow pages for vehicle recovery companies
