Why do people file a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Normally, individuals file chapter 13 if they have important property not covered by an exemption, like a home or car, but want to hang on to this property. If a debtor is behind on secured loan payments, a chapter 13 bankruptcy can permit the debtor to make up these payments ultimately while keeping the home or car.
