FAQ
It Hurts Your Credit It is reflected in your credit report for up to seven years, making it harder to get approval for new credit during this period. Additionally, if you missed car payments in the time leading up to the voluntary repossession, this will negatively impact your score and credit history.
Falling behind on car payments affects your credit, and this can make it harder or more expensive to get loans in the future. A repossession could also stay on your credit reports for up to seven years. Repossession can also mean paying higher insurance rates.
In the credit world, a repo is considered a derogatory mark. Since credit scores comprise numerous factors, it may be hard to predict exactly how much a repo may affect your credit. In some cases, the effect could be big enough to drop you from excellent or very good credit to good or fair.

What Happens If the Repo Agent Doesn't Find Your Car? But if you make it hard for the repo agent to get it, then the creditor may use another method to get the car back, called "replevin." Replevin can be just as costly as a repossession, if not more so.
Trying to reinstate or redeem your auto loan typically has to happen within a short time period, such as about two weeks, so you could have your car back soon after it's repossessed. You may have to wait longer, perhaps several months, if the car is sold at auction due to the time of the auction process.
