I called the XXXX XXXX XXXX department asking them for assistance and I was told it was a civil matter and they could not intervene. 
On XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX  came and I gave them the address and location of the vehicle to pick it up. I called XXXX XXXX spoke to office manager who called me the XXXX XXXX and threatened my life and said he would run me over to get the car. I reported this to the man from the XXXX XXXX  office who was the person who was sent. 

I have never received a right to cure letter from XXXX or the attorney who represents XXXX until today XX/XX/XXXX when the police came which I informed them of already notifying XXXX agents the location of the car. I have been harassed and threatened in violation of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. ( 12 C.F.R. 1024.39 ). 
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX lenders must not " breach the peace '' when repossessing vehicles. They may not physically or verbally threaten the debtor or coerce him to sign the voluntary surrender notice. If the repossession agent didnt follow the law when they took your vehicle, it may be considered unlawful vehicle repossession. Repossession agents must inform the local police of their intent to repossess a vehicle. 
The right to do so without using judicial process ended when we objected to the repossession, thereby disturbing the peace. These defendants acting under color of state law violated their constitutional right to due process. The Constitution requires notice and a prior hearing before a secured creditor or third party- agent acting on XXXX behalf in the repossession of a debtor 's property. The Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution safeguards a citizen 's right not to be deprived of property by any state without due process of law, and the Amendment is violated only by conduct that may be fairly characterized as state action. XXXX v. XXXX XXXX XXXX, 457 U.S. 922, 924, 102 S.Ct. 2744, 73 L.Ed.2d 482 ( 1982 ). To establish a deprivation of property, a plaintiff must show that a person acting under color of any state statute, regulation, custom or usage deprived plaintiff of a right secured by the Constitution. See 42 U.S.C. 1983 ( 1994 ).

Statutory Notice. The Notice must set out certain information, such as the consumers right to reinstate the contract and the costs the consumer must pay to do so. The plaintiffs claim that XXXX violated the Act because its Statutory Notice did not meet a number of requirements : It failed to itemize certain fees. 
It did not provide all conditions that had to be met in order to reinstate the loan. 
It did not state the location at which the vehicle could be picked up. 
It did not provide notice that the 15-day period during which the consumer could reinstate the loan could be extended for ten additional days upon written request. 
The Rees-Levering Act also provides that if a company does not provide a proper Statutory Notice to a consumer, it can not collect a deficiency balance from the consumer. The lawsuit thus also complains that the company pursued the plaintiffs for deficiency balances that it no longer had any legal right to.
