FAQ
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.
In Maryland, a car lender has the right to take your car without first having to sue you in court as long as the person repossessing the car does not breach the peace. Other lenders may sue you in court for a replevin action, which is an action to take back the item(s) securing their liens.
A repossession affidavit is a legal statement filed with the Department of Motor Vehicles when you repossess a car from a customer. This document provides details about the repossession such as why and how the vehicle was repossessed. It also informs government authorities that the vehicle has been repossessed.
Generally, your car can be repossessed after 90 days of no payments, but the exact timeline is up to the lender and local law. In some states, your car could get repossessed just for not having the right car insurance!
Repo agents use personal details, social media, and tools like GPS trackers and license plate scanners to find vehicles. They can legally repossess cars from public spaces but cannot enter locked or gated private property.
Once the lender has repossessed the car, a sale of the car may be scheduled. Maryland law requires lenders to provide the debtor with a notice of sale at least 10 days prior to the sale of the car. This notice must provide the debtor with information in writing of the date, time and location of the scheduled sale.
There is no legal restriction on the time when a car can be repossessed. The repo agent will do this when they have the opportunity to do so, which can be any time of the day or night.
Can a repo man move another car to get yours? No, a repossession agent may not do that. But, if the repossession company can't access your car because it is hidden, blocked, or locked up, your lender goes to court to get a replevin. Replevin is a court order compelling the collection of the vehicle.
