repo
my car was repo'd the next day i had made arrangements to get the car back with the loan co. the problem is the co. holing the car. they took all my personal things out of the car and are holding them seperate from the car and will not give them back until I pay 50.00. they still will not even give me the location of the car and are charging storage fees each day. can they do this?

Re: repo
This is wrongful conduct. And, it is the responsibility of the loan company's to provide the location. They are working for the loan company. You may want to get a copy of this written policy and take legal action, particularly, it this delay resulted in additional to you. It they don't have a written policy you can use the receipt or invoice after you pick up your car.
Based on the information your provided, this could be defined as exploitation, usury, coercion under enducement.
The only action they should require is an official release from the loan company and your car should have remained intact, particularly, if a limited time period existed between posssesion and release.
