17 Mar 2011I bought a motorcycle a few years back for $9500 and financed the entire amount. The finance lady financed my maximum approval of $6500 with Suzuki credit which is HSBC. To cover the remainder balance she got a loan approval for $3000 through GE Money FUNancing. My registration shows that SUZUKI HSBC owns the vehicle. My question is does GE FUNancing have any rights to the bike? Is it legal to do what the dealership did?

It’s possible that the second loan was considered an unsecured loan (meaning it’s not tied to ownership of whatever you bought, similar to a credit card) If that’s true, GE wouldn’t have any rights to the bike. However, there are some types of loans through two (or more) companies where, if you default on either loan, that company can reposses your vehicle.

Yes. It’s legal.
Yes, GE has a right to repossess the bike if they are a secured creditor. . However, they may need to get permission from HSBC to repo the bike. If GE is an unsecured creditor, they have no right to repossess the motorcycle. You will need to see the title of the bike to see how many liens are on the title.
I think, I’m not certain though, that this will work like if a second mortgage holder tries to forclose on a house. The second mortgage holder must get permission from the primary mortgage holder to foreclose on the property.
