Re: repossession of vehicle
Its doubtful that you have any sort of automatic right to do that. If you read the paperwork you signed when you got the loan there might be some language in there about these situations. One thing that you can do is call your bank. With the economy being what it is, there have been a lot of people that have had trouble making loan payments. Some of the banks have set up special programs to help people through these times. Its just a phone call and doesn't hurt to try.
Good luck.
