Can I keep my car?

Hi,

I have a secured car loan for $15,000 and the car is valued at approximately $14,000. If I go bankrupt to claim my mastercard, can I keep my car and car loan?

As long as your car loan is current (payments up to date) when you file for bankruptcy or a consumer proposal and you keep them current the lender has no right to come and take your car.

In other words, yes, you can keep your car as long as you keep paying for it.
