In general, if a car is repossessed by a dealer for nonpayment, the dealer has the right to resell it. However, the specific laws governing the repossession and resale of vehicles vary from state to state. In most cases, the dealer must follow certain procedures and provide notice to the debtor (the person who purchased the vehicle) before repossessing and reselling the vehicle.

For example, in some states, the dealer may be required to give the debtor a certain period of time to bring the loan current before repossessing the vehicle. Additionally, the dealer may be required to provide notice of the repossession and sale to the debtor in writing.

The laws regarding repossession and resale of vehicles are complex and can vary significantly from state to state. If you are facing repossession of your vehicle, it is important to consult with a qualified attorney to understand your rights and options.
