What people can do if their car gets repossessed
When your car get repossessed here are a few ways you can go about negotiation, according to Justanswer. Reaching an immediate agreement with the creditor that requires you to pay off the entire amount owed on the loan agreement is the only way you will be able to reclaim that car.
Another possibility is that you persuade a buddy to accompany you to the car auction and buy the car for you. They might be able to arrange for finance for the car under their own name before selling it to you. As an alternative, you might attend the auction and buy the car yourself.
