    Not sure what you mean, once they take it its not yours any more. The loan owned the title all along and now they have both the car and the title. Or were you planning on making the back apyemnts to get the car back. Tell us more

    Tough stop, once it was "repoed" it was legally their car, they gave you ownership back when you went and paid them and picked the car up.

    If you can prove, to a judge with evidence that can be presented, that they did the damage, you may have a case, but even then I am not 100 percent sure.

    Hello g:

    Sue them in small claims court. If you can prove your claim, you'll win.

    Go to Small Claims Court and sue them.

    Did you file a report of the damage with the Police and/or repo company when you picked it up? If not you have an uphill fight to win in Small Claims Court.
