Re: car lease problem
A car leased is based on a contract. That contract requires that you make monthly payments over a period of time and, at the end of that period, you may be able to purchase the car for a sum of money. If all payments are not made timely, the company has the right to repossess.
The only ways to prevent the loss of your car are an amicable resolution with the car loan company or a bankruptcy. Chapter 13 may allow you to cure the default on the lease.
I trust this has been helpful but feel free to call or e-mail with further questions.
