Since the car is financed, it already is collateral for a loan. Your car loan uses the car as collateral for that loan.
I think the only way for you to use the car as collateral for a different loan is to have the NEW lender pay off your car loan, tack the ammount of the car loan on to the new loan you are getting, therefore they would then be the leinholder on the car.
The car itself
The difference between an unsecured loan, and a secured loan is pretty substantial. A house, or a car is used as collateral and therefore secures the loan for the lender. For an unsecured loan, there is no collateral available to the lender.
IF you signed a loan with the CU and used the car as collateral, YES IT IS LEGAL. And it is WISE for you to pay.
I dont have great credit & need a loan bad I have a 2004 Chevy Venture Van paid for that i can use for collateral where can I go to get a loan?
As soon as you can find a lender willing to loan money on the collateral.
Well yes.... The car in question is already collateral for the first loan.

Yes. That's why the credit union has possession of the title. If you used the car as collateral for a loan and default on the loan the lender will take possession of the car and sell it to offset what you owe on the loan.
If there is a loan which used the car as collateral, yes.
No. If you use a vehicle as collateral on a loan or something of that nature, the car actually becomes property of the lien holder (person to which is holding it as collateral), and cannot be sold unless the loan is cleared up.
Yes most of the time you will need some type of collateral for a loan. Typically the most common collateral used for these types of loans are car titles.
If that loan company loaned you money and you used the car as collateral and failed to make payments on time, they can, and will repossess the car.
When it comes to using collateral for a car equity loan using your car title is an option through certain loan providers it just depends on their qualifications and the value of your car.

If the debt is on the car, or the car was used as collateral for the loan, YES they can repossess the vehicle!
