car repo

Lender takes back

Car repo is the repossession of a vehicle, typically by a lender when the owner falls behind on loan payments.

The repo man comes to take the car back, often without warning: I missed three payments and they did a car repo in the middle of the night.

Also used as a modifier: car repo companies, car repo laws.
