There's no rule. It may not be worth it for the lender to repo or take the vehicle. To be safe, you may want to send the lender a letter, certified return receipt, giving a time, date and place to pick the vehicle up. If the lender does not, be sure to keep the letter and green card to prove the lender abandoned it. Then you will want to get the title. You may have to sue the lender for it.

One day. Typically it takes the lender a week or more, usually a month before they send out the order of repossession. If you are trying to figure out the float on how long it is safe to be delinquent, don't bother. Once you have gone into repossession, the lender can still have your vehicle picked up, even if you pay current. You breached a contract, the penalty of that is the surrender of the secured property, the car. Do what you have to to pay the note, or be honorable and surrender the vehicle.
