If your car is repossessed are you really not allowed to get your belongings out of the car?
27th January 2011
I watch some of those repo shows on television like All Worked Up and Operation Repo. I have seen where the repo company doesn’t allow the owner of the vehicle to get their belongings out of the car when they come back to the company after the car was repossessed until the repo paper work has been fully processed, than they can get their stuff or something like that. I know Tru TV is just for pure entertainment purposes only, but they are based on real repos, just dramatized for television. Just wondering if it was true in real life that you can’t get your belongings out if you go back to the company after the car is repossessed? I just think it is ridiculous because, yes, you didn’t pay the finance company, and the car got repoed, but the repo company people should get the people’s belongings out for them and why do they not let them get their stuff out if it’s true?
Car Repossession *LONG*?
29th October 2010
I bought a car from a private dealer (he has a dealer’s license but just buys cars from auctions, fixes them up and sells them.) So the total price of a car is ,000 and I’m making payments of 0 every two weeks. I put 0 down on the car on October 9, 2010 and I was set to make a payment on October 16, 2010. I was sick so I didn’t go to work that Friday or Monday so they mailed my paycheck. I informed the guy of this and he said okay. So the mailman runs on Tuesday, and of course the check comes.So I go to the bank and cash the check and get a money order. My mom drops me off at the orthodontist (I’m 17 by the way) and proceeds to contact him to find out his address and when she can drop off the payment. My dentist appointment was at 4:15 and he said he had to leave at 4:30 so my mother tells him that she wouldn’t make it to where he lives in just 15 minutes so let us know when he gets done doing whatever it is he was busy doing. Then he gets upset saying he needs it now and so on. Then he tells her he isn’t accepting anything from her because he has no business with her. So we go down to his house and I try to give him the money order and he says he’s not taking it because I breached the contract. The next day (yesterday) I park my car at my sister’s house to go in and grab some books for class, my nephew is still outside in the car. I walk back out to see him in my driver’s seat taking off with my car! My nephew said that he threatened him to call the police if he did not give him the keys. My nephew being only 9 did so. Now he’s texting me saying that I need to bring him ,100 in cash by next week. He won’t let me get my belongings out of the car or anything! He repossessed my car when he was the one refusing the payment! What do i do? I put 0 down and only had the car for a week and a half! I either want the car or I want my money back! He said he won’t accept the payment of 0 I either bring him ,100 or I don’t get the car. A lot of people are telling me that the contract was void because I am a minor and the cosigner was not my legal guardian. I don’t feel like taking him to court and all of that. The question is, can he just take it like that. I looked it up and he was supposed to send me a Right to Cure letter 10 days after a missed payment. What do I do? I’m in Nebraska by the way.

My car was repossessed and my belongings are gone?
22nd August 2010
Ok so my car was repossessed about 2 weeks ago, thankfully i managed to get enough money to get my car back tomorrow from the towing yard about 1 hour away from where i live.
BUT the original towing company that towed my car before transferring it to another towing yard CLEANED out my car of all my belongings and other items. They told me it costs per bag per day. I had 4 bags of items and it’s been 28 days so total is 280+ invetory fee is 0.
Can they legally do that?? I pretty much went through hell to get the funds to get my car back.. i can’t afford this. And if i wait any longer i will NEVER be able to get my stuff back. I had a 0 video camera plus clothes and other things in my car.
Can they legally do this? OR any help/suggestions on what i should do?
Thanks,
what exactly will happen?
I have a car that i leased 2 years ago – the lease is up in July 2008 – however, i dont want the car anymore and i am already over my miles … if i have it any longer i will be stuck with thousands in overmileage usage. The car is in my moms name – and frankly her credit is already to hell…
i would like to know if i just stop paying the payment – and they come take the car – what will happen? will they also repossess belongings to pay what is owed on the car? or will they just send the bill to collection?
can someone please help?! thankkkksss sooo much in advance!
