It depends, if you did not have a security agreement on the loan, and if you didn�t file for a new title with your loan on it, you can�t enforce a repo (this is for Colorado, but it is similar for other states). It seems to be that you need to go to court, and prove to the court that you have a right to the car, depending on what is in that letter, and then the court can issue a repleven, which is a court order that can be enforced by law enforcement to get the car back. good luck.

Will the bank repossess your car if it has been stolen and in an accident and the insurance was expired?

As long as you continue to make the payments, you are OK. If you fail to make the payments, they will repossess the car, sell it, and you will then owe the difference in what it sells for and the balance on the loan. The previous answer overlooked one important point. INSURANCE WAS EXPIRED If they don't repossess it, it is only because it is worthless after the accident. What they would prefer to do in this case is "accelerate the payments", i.e. make you pay the remainder of the loan immediately. Then you can worry about disposing of the carcass.
