What happens a lot is once the car is repossessed, the finance company updates the derogatory information, then just leaves it at that. They don't do the work to update it to say included in bankruptcy. Make a copy of your discharge order, make a copy of schedule D (secured loans), forward that with a letter to the credit bureau and ask them to update the it to a $0 balance and report it as included in the BK. That should be all you need to do.
I would then recheck your credit file a month or two down the road. I received a letter from experian saying they updated my file due to my car being repossessed and a balance on a credit card was removed. When I pulled it again two months later, it was still there! So, I am sending them another letter this week.
