- Forcibly remove you from the vehicle
- Stop you on the street or highway like a law enforcement agent
- Enter a closed garage or your home
- Break into your house
- Create a disturbance such as a fight or other altercation, or threaten any of the above actions
- Pretend or represent themselves to be a law enforcement officer while conducting the repossession.
- Have law enforcement personnel present unless the creditor has already sued you
If any of these actions occurred you should immediately report the incident to law enforcement authorities and contact an attorney.
The repossession company can:
- Take the vehicle from unsecured driveways
- Open carports, parking lots at work or city streets
Generally a well staffed repossession company will check a given address three times in daylight and three times at night. not sure if that is every day? that could easily be cost prohibitive for a repossession company. |
