credit laws apply to all states, they can legally reposses when you become 1 day late on a payment. Most finance companies will not reposses until at least 90 days past due with no contact from you. Check your loan papers on late payments. Finance companies don't want the car back they lose money and it's costly to repo a car. READ the contract. You can be repoed when you are in DEFAULT of the contract.

You can surrender the vehicle in a Chapter 7, where the creditor has no choice.
