Avoiding Car Repossession | Here are 10 Great Tips!
What happens when I miss a car payment?
A lot of bad things can happen when you stop paying your car loan. Each month you miss a payment lowers your credit score. If you can’t resume payments and get caught up, your car can be repossessed. Worse, you could still owe money on your former car after you no longer have it. The repercussions can stick with your credit rating for years, making it hard to borrow money again, and increasing the interest on any loan you do get.
