No your finance company cannot garnish your wages unless they first sue you and get a judgment against you. Also once they take your car they will have to sell it in a commercially reasonable manner an give you proper notice or else they cannot collect the difference between what you owe and what they got. If they sue you do not ignore it file a response and show up to court. He more you fight and make it difficult for them the more willing they should be to offer you a discount on what you owe them.

Good luck
