    You did not have a loss. You repaid some or all of the loan with your car. There is nothing to deduct.

    No.
    Having your car seized for non-payment of a loan is neither a “Casualty” or a “Theft”.

    No, it’s not considered a casualty loss, or any other kind of deductible loss.

    after spending 7 years doing taxes the answer is no you cannot claim a loss for your inability to repay a loan.

    I don’t think so, but it would be best to check with a tax adviser.
