car impounded, bank took it out of impound lot and sold it. I didn't know anything about this. It was sold at an auction.

I was put in jail for a day and, after that, I went into the hospital. Afterwards, we went to the impound lot. The payment was going to be more than I could afford. I received my check and went back to the lot to pick up the car. My bank had already picked it up. To get it back, I was going to have to pay it off completely. The bank then sold it at an auction. I received a letter stating I owed the difference between what they received at the auction and what they figured I owed. They wouldn't put the impound fee onto the car payment. I had made payments of $200.00 for two years. They said that was for the use of the car. They kept my MSU Spartan license plate. Are they allowed to take action like this without my knowledge or, letting me know what was going on. They put it on my credit report as a repo. Thanks, LInda
