Using Bankruptcy to Stop Repossession
When you file for either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the court will immediately issue an order called an "automatic stay." The automatic stay orders your creditors to cease and desist any efforts to collect on the debt you owe to them. If your creditors are trying to repossess your car, they will have to suspend the repossession process indefinitely.
However, for as long as you own the car, you will be responsible for paying it off. Bankruptcy can give you time to catch up on back payments and make it possible for you to pay off the rest of the car loan — but you will still have to pay for it. If you don't, your car will eventually be repossessed.
