Asset recovery
Passenger-vehicle assignments require accurate identifiers, current location information, and a clear record of activity from intake through transport.
Assignment planning
Cars, crossovers, and passenger SUVs can move between a residence, workplace, parking garage, repair facility, or another address during the life of an assignment. The starting point is a clean file with the correct VIN, vehicle description, borrower information, and the most useful location leads available.
Access also matters. A vehicle parked on a public street presents a different set of conditions than one inside a controlled garage or behind restricted access. Those details help determine what information must be confirmed before field activity begins.
Assignment questions
Send every useful lead, including recent residences, workplaces, repair shops, parking facilities, contact updates, and any information showing where the vehicle was last seen. Location research can then focus on the strongest leads rather than treating every old address equally.
The full VIN is the primary identifier. Plate information, color, body style, trim, visible damage, aftermarket wheels, stickers, and current photos can provide additional confirmation when similar vehicles are present.
Asset-specific factors
Known residences, workplaces, repair shops, parking facilities, and updated address leads can all affect where the vehicle is likely to be found.
Garage clearance, gated access, street parking, and the vehicle's orientation may change the recovery and transport plan.
Available photos, condition notes, location details, and transport status keep the lender's file connected to the recovered car.
Process
Confirm the VIN, vehicle description, borrower details, and lender instructions before field work begins.
Use the available address information and approved location research to narrow down where the car may be kept.
Consider access, parking conditions, and the vehicle's apparent condition before moving the assignment forward.
Organize available photos, activity notes, and transport information for the lender's next step.
