The "penalty" will be that the lender will repossess the vehicle, sell it, apply the proceeds to the loan, and come after you for the deficiency (the difference between the proceeds and the balance of the loan. And there will be a deficiency). These things will show up on your credit report. Eventually, the lender may sue you.
