Well at least next time you'll know not to buy things you can't afford.
They can sue you for it and force you to give it up so there's really no point in trying to hide it.

The repo man can not legally move a car that they are not taking, nor can they enter a locked building to get the car. Facts of life: The repo man is paid to get the car. If you use one car to block the other, the repo man is going to have a second tow truck come and pull the blocking car out of the way, drop it in the street and take off. The first truck will hook to your car, and unless you can ID the truck that moved the blocker, you will have no recourse. If you ever take the car out of the garage, they will get it. You will leave it unoccupied for 2 minutes (I got one from a gas station when the deadbeat went to get their change) it will be gone. Pay the payment or return the car. You agreed to pay when you signed the contracts. Live up to your word.

In some state its illegal for them to steal your car back.. But they do it anyway... Unless they have taken you to court and some sort of court order has been issued by a judge, I can't see how you can get in trouble.. If you keep driving it ,there going to find you.
Ask for more opinions this is an intelligent guess...

Yes, the lender has a legal right to repossess the vehicle. You didn't make your payments, which puts you in default status on your loan, and you have no legal right to possess the vehicle. It is a felony in most states to conceal a vehicle to prevent repossession. At some point, it becomes grand theft.
