The answer

Leaving work before the end of working hours without permission is impermissible. The salary you receive as a result of this is not rightfully yours, and you must return it to your employer. If direct return is difficult due to fear of theft, you may spend it on public welfare for Muslims, such as mosques and hospitals. The car is your property, and there is no harm in benefiting from it.
