FAQ
Yes it can, a vehicle can be repossessed anywhere it is in plain sight.
A repo agent may come onto your private property, including your driveway, yard, or unlocked garage. But they can't breach the peace. Breaching the peace includes using force, such as cutting a lock or forcibly entering a locked garage, gate, or enclosed area.
A repossession licensee or its agent does not have the authority to enter a private building or a secured area without the consent of the property owner or the person in lawful control of the private property to repossess a vehicle. A secured area means any place that is fenced and locked.
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 California, a consumer's vehicle can be taken from them if they miss payments on their loan or if they violate any terms of their agreement. This process is known as repossession and the creditor has the right to repossess the consumer's vehicle if it holds a valid security interest in it.
A repo agent can't move another car to get your vehicle without permission. If another vehicle is blocking your vehicle, they will need permission from the owner to move it. Repossession agents can't threaten you, use physical force, or harm you in any way. This is a breach of the peace and is not allowed.
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.
Contact Your Lender: Reach out to your lender or financing company directly. They can provide information about your account status, including any late fees, and whether they have initiated repossession proceedings. Review Communication: Check any recent correspondence from your lender.
(Cal. Com. Code § 9609 (2024).) In most cases, once the car is repossessed, the lender will sell it either at auction or through a private sale, often to a used car dealer.
