Texas repo laws are fairly simple. A creditor can file a lawsuit seeking an order to begin the car repossession process. However, automobile repossession laws in Texas allow creditors with valid liens on vehicles to use “self-help” methods when a borrower is behind on loan payments.
Creditors do not need to seek court approval to repossess your vehicle. A repossession agent may take possession of your car so long as they can avoid a "breach of the peace." This usually means that they can repossess your car without a court proceeding in a public area.
