Auto lenders repossess vehicles after full payment confirmed on record
Consumers who wire full overdue balances to auto lenders still have their vehicles repossessed due to internal communication failures between the lender, repossession companies, and auction houses.

The lack of real-time payment-to-hold coordination creates irreversible harm.
