Yes, but they must take you to court first for settlement options.

AnswerIn Ohio they must first sell the repo at a public sale. If the vehicle is sold for less than you owe the bank may take you to court and obtain a judgment for the difference. After they win the judgment they can then enforce the judgment in a variety of ways, a lien on other property (your house), garnishment, etc. If the vehicle is sold for more than you owe, they are required to send you a check for difference.

If your car is repossessed and your wages are garnished can the company you work for fire you?

Yes, you can be terminated from a job for any justifiable reason. The repossession and garnishment are YOUR problems, not your employer's. * No, it is illegal for an employer to fire an employee because of his or her wages being garnished. Unfortunately, it is usually not difficult for an employer to come up with a plausible reason to discharge an employee in order to circumvent discriminatory practice laws.
