Re: chapter 13 bankruptsy interest rates
With an auto loan generally you can file a motion to determine the value of the vehicle in a Chapter 13 case and they are usually willing to agree to a lower interest rate. If it is a Chapter 7 case, though, unless things have changed, they will generally repossess the vehicle unless you reaffirm for the full contract price including the interest.
