Correct answers:
- The bank might take his car.
- The bank will charge late fees.
- His credit history might be damaged.

Why: An auto loan is typically secured by the car, so continued missed payments can lead to repossession. Lenders assess late fees and report delinquencies to credit bureaus, which harms credit scores. He would not be "charged a down payment" (down payments are made at purchase), and lenders don’t normally force you to "add an asset to the loan" — they might demand a cosigner or pursue other remedies, but they don’t simply add an asset to the loan.
