No, unless you fradulently obtained the loan (i.e. under someone else's name/credit) but that would be a different crime, not non-payment of the loan.

No...they can repossess the car, send your record to collections, ruin your credit rating, get a court-ordered judgment to pay, and garnish your wages, but you won't go to jail unless you've demonstrated criminal intent to steal (such as if you took the car over a state line after a threat to repossess the car).

You don't get arrested for not paying a car loan.
They simply reposess the car if you get behind that badly.

Why not make your payments instead of playing on the computer? Work an extra job, or whatever.
