Can they repossess your car when it is on personal property?

In general, a creditor cannot repossess a car that is located on private property without first obtaining a court order. This is because the property is considered to be under your control and not the creditor's. However, there are some exceptions to this rule, such as when the creditor has a security interest in the vehicle and the loan agreement specifies that the creditor can repossess the car without a court order. Additionally, if the car is parked in a public place where it is accessible to the creditor, the creditor may be able to repossess the car without a court order.

If you are concerned about your car being repossessed, it is important to speak to an attorney to learn about your rights and options.
