FAQ
What Happens If the Repo Agent Doesn't Find Your Car? But if you make it hard for the repo agent to get it, then the creditor may use another method to get the car back, called "replevin." Replevin can be just as costly as a repossession, if not more so.
A repossession affidavit is a legal statement filed with the Department of Motor Vehicles when you repossess a car from a customer. This document provides details about the repossession such as why and how the vehicle was repossessed. It also informs government authorities that the vehicle has been repossessed.
Obtaining a repossession title involves completing specific paperwork to transfer ownership from the previous owner to the lienholder. This paperwork often includes an application for a repossession title, a bill of sale, and a certificate of repossession.
Doing so may expose you to criminal charges or other legal trouble. Remember that doing anything to hide your car from repossession is a crime. It's possible that doing anything to prevent your car from being repossessed could be criminal.
A reliable, effective way to prevent repossession or get your vehicle back may be a Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing. This form of bankruptcy, as opposed to Chapter 7 bankruptcy, may allow you to catch up on your car loan and repay other debts over a period of three to five years.
But, if the repossession company can't access your car because it is hidden, blocked, or locked up, your lender goes to court to get a replevin.
If you hide the property, you are violating your agreement with the creditor, which requires you to make the property available upon demand. You could also be subject to criminal charges. It is a crime to conceal, remove or harm property on which there is a lien with the intent to hinder enforcement of the lien.
Texas repo laws are fairly simple. A creditor can file a lawsuit seeking an order to begin the car repossession process. However, automobile repossession laws in Texas allow creditors with valid liens on vehicles to use “self-help” methods when a borrower is behind on loan payments.
