Re: loan default
They can repossess and then sue you for the deficiency, which usually will be large, or they can sue you without repossessing.
Either way after that you usually would face garnishment of paychecks and bank accounts, and other adverse consequences.
At this point, meet with a bankruptcy lawyer who can tell you if you have options and what they may be. He'll need detailed financial information to answer you. If you're in metro Atlanta we can do that.
