Yes, your car can be legally repossessed from private property, including parking lots, shopping centers, airports, work parking lots, and hotels. When a borrower falls behind on their car payments and the lender decides to repossess the car, the lender has the legal right to repossess the car through a process known as self-help repossession.
Repossession can be performed by a lender or their agent like a third-party towing company. There are certain limitations on when and how a repossession can be carried out but if done legally, the repossession can still occur from locations such as parking lots.
