In Michigan, a creditor can conduct a repossession without sending the consumer a notice beforehand. However, a creditor has to hold a valid lien on the vehicle that they are attempting to repossess and the consumer has to be in default in order for the repossession to be lawful.
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.
Once the car has been repossessed, the lender has to abide by a 15 day redemption period. This allows you 15-day to redeem the vehicle before the lender can attempt to sell the car at auction.
While the repossession company may trespass your property to retrieve the vehicle, they cannot legally “break and enter” a closed structure. For example, if they see the car in a closed garage through a window, they cannot legally lift the garage door to repossess the vehicle.
Michigan repossession law allows a creditor to repossess your car at any time after you default on your car loan or lease. The most common reason for default is not making your car payments. You can also default if you don't follow the terms of the lease like keeping the proper insurance coverage.
