FAQ
In Maryland, in the event of a default by buyer, the seller (or assignee) may repossess the collateral. In the Maryland, no prior notice to the debtor is required before repossession of the car takes place, however, if no Notice of Intent to Repossess was sent, deficiency restrictions may apply.
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.
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.
Under the state of Maryland's car repossession, a creditor can repossess a vehicle when the borrower defaults on the loan. A default can result from one or more missed payments, or it can result from violating other terms of the loan agreement. An example would be failing to properly insure the vehicle.
In Maryland, a repossessed vehicle may be redeemed within fifteen days (for delinquent amount) after repossession. However, if repossession has happened twice in an eighteen month period, the creditor can require the borrower repay the full amount of the entire loan in order to redeem the vehicle.
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.
(a) (1) A credit grantor may repossess tangible personal property securing a loan under an agreement, note, or other evidence of the loan if the consumer borrower is in default. (ii) Self-help, without use of force. (b) Nothing in this section authorizes a violation of criminal law.
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.
