Yes/No, because if it is parked in reverse, the back wheels would be dragging, and soon shift gears (If repossessed by a chain truck), but if it is a flatbed tow truck, then yes, it can be repossessed, because the back wheels would not be dragging, therefor the wheels would not shift gears and ruin the vehicle, or reverse of of the truck!

After your vehicle has been repossessed, the repossessing company must contact you (often via the creditor) to notify you where your personal property can be recovered. Repossession agents are required to keep the property for thirty days to allow you to recover it, but they will charge you a storage fee, and pretty much every one will require that fee be paid before they surrender your personal property.

Regarding an agent of yours being permitted to recover your personal property, it is possible, but may be difficult.

No once it's repo'd you either have to work it out with whoever financed the vehicle to get it back or your at a total loss.

When you're buying a car and your credit it bad does the car dealer have to pay the bank a fee to buy your loan?

Yes, In some cases. If you are only capable of being financed by a sub-prime

or secondary lender, there is a fee or comparatively a closing cost to secure the

funds necessary to finance that loan. Unfortunately you may have not to many

options as far as the vehicle on the lot you get to take home. The vehicle will have to be able to absorb the cost to finance as well as fall in the criteria, age, mileage and price in which the lender will be willing to finance. this is not an easy feat and can be discouraging. The dealer will not tell you there is a cost associated with this purchase because of the truth in lending laws. Good luck
