In most cases they want the money. The car's value if resold and the borrower's ability to pay any deficit could play a part in their decision. If the borrower can convince the lender they can fulfill the agreement, the lender will more than likely withdraw the filing.
Yes, voluntarily relinquishing a vehicle does not relieve the borrower from the original contract obligations. The lender/leaser can sue the borrower for the amount still owed on the contract and any applicable fees.
A borrower should not have a title in their possession that they have borrowed money against. This belongs with the lender. Should the borrower sell the car, they would be libel.
Considering that the LENDER will be the one to report it as a "repo", wouldn't it be best the discuss it with the LENDER?
No, the car has a lien on it. You cannot legally sell without a lien release from the lender. Be careful, you will get into serious trouble trying this. You can sell the car if the lender agrees but if they are trying to repo it i doubt they would agree to a sale at this point.
You pay the LENDER what you are behind and the repo fee and go get it.
The DEALERSHIP won't repossess the car, but the lender might if you don't make the monthly payments as scheduled.
If they have a judgment against you, yes.
It isn't YOUR car until you have paid the lender.
It all varies by your state laws. but normally the lender will search for repo and towing companies in the area where they think you are and they search for you and come and tow your car to a tow company or repo company lot, then they contact your lender, so you need to contact your lender to arrange payment or to get your stuff out of your car.

The lender has to get the STAY lifted before they can repo.
Contact the lender they are the ones who call off the repo.
