Can a car be reported as stolen because the loan went into default?

Can it? Yes, by the lender in some case. If the debtor is actively attempting to hinder repossession in many states, or if the vehicle is in possession of a third party who is not on the loan or vehicle registration, then a repossession agent may file a stolen vehicle report. Most will not, preferring to allow the lender to take such action instead.Can it be reported stolen by the debtor once repossession takes place? Often vehicles are reported stolen after repossession happens. However, this is a cautious area. Most debtors already know the vehicle is being sought, and law enforcement takes a dim view of filing false or malicious reports.

If a person is 4 months late on a car payment can it be reported stolen?

NOT unless it was stolen. Stolen cars are reported stolen. Cars securing a loan in DEFAULT are reported as DELINQUENT to the credit bureau. If you choose to report the car stolen, go ahead. I would not reccommend it though. Filing a false police report is illegal in most jurisdictions.

You just need to let the police know you found it. If you're found in possession of the item and they realize it was reported stolen you could be mistakenly arrested.


What happens when you hide a car from the repo man?

It will be reported stolen. Remember, the car does not belong to you - it belongs to the lienholder, and the repossession agents are coming to claim the lienholder's property back. You no longer have any legal right to it. In most instances the repo agent will make a few attempts to locate the vehicle. If that does not happen the lender will go to court to obtain a replevin order. Once the order has been issued the buyer/debtor must relinquish the vehicle or face criminal charges. The vehicle cannot be reported stolen by the repossession agent or the lender unless they have evidence that such a crime was actually committed. For them to do so due the location of the vehicle was unknown would constitute filing a false police report.
