Voluntary surrender means you return the vehicle to the lender. In Chapter 7, the remaining deficiency balance (what you owe minus the car's value) is discharged. You will not owe anything after discharge. The process: notify your attorney, the lender arranges pickup, you remove personal belongings. Timeline is typically 30-60 days after filing. Getting a new car after surrender is possible but expect higher interest rates initially.
