Vehicle loan Problems when you are unable to pay Washington

I had a vehicle loan through Santander Consumer USA, during the loan I had some problems making the payments due to my -. Santander was never very good at working with me on the situation. Often times my whole payments of $580.00 would go straight to interest, this happened months in a row. ( I found that mathematically impossible ) I really felt like Santander was ripping me off because of the situation I was in and my bad credit. On - -, 2015 they received a letter from me as a last resort, to work with me during this time. I requested that Santander respond via letter outlining any options they might have. I received no response from them, ( after the repossession they lied and said I did n't communicate with them ). Soon after they sent a recovery truck to repossess the vehicle at night ( I offered early on to surrender the vehicle if no agreement could be made ). They took the vehicle which had personal belongings of my wife and I in it. They also did n't inform us on how we might get them back, we never got them back. We also received no notice on when/where/or how much the vehicle was going to be sold.. They followed no WA repossession law that I can tell ... I have read that Santander has optional payment protection plans which would have helped me in this situation ... Which I was never offered in the first place ... I feel like Santander took advantage of me because I am injured and -. They now claim I owe almost $10000.00 for the balance they could n't get for the vehicle, they have assigned it to collections. I do n't believe I owe the money based on the fact that they did questionable things during my loan and ultimately broke the law in regards to the repossession.
