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.
So how long will a repo man look for a car? The answer is simple — until they find it. Therefore, rather than hiding your car, it's probably a better idea to look for different solutions to stopping repossession. If you want to keep your car and are in financial trouble, talk to a bankruptcy attorney.
You can also use websites like Carfax, Auto Trader, Buy It Now, eBay and CarsDirect. All these websites provide information about repossessed cars.
Repossession doesn't require a claim to your insurance company because it is a financial issue rather than a liability issue. Generally, this shouldn't increase your auto insurance rates.
Direct Dispute with the Lienholder: Even though the lienholder has refused to remove the repossession, consider sending them a formal dispute letter. In the letter, outline the timeline of events, provide evidence of the insurance payout, and explain why the repossession should not be considered a default on your part.
Identify yourself and your vehicle. Be sure to include an account number so that your lender can match your letter to your records. Explain that you're unable to make payments and intend to surrender the car. Provide contact information so that your lender can reach you.
Evidence Can Prove a Wrongful Repossession Case From detailed written statements to visual documentation of property damage, illegal access, and proof of timely payments, the types of evidence required may vary depending on the circumstances.
If the towing company damaged your vehicle, then they would be responsible for paying for the damage. Because your bank is being difficult, I recommend contacting your insurance provider. They might have resources to track down the towing company to get the necessary information.
