Best Answer

Both have equal right to possession unless and until some over riding legal action takes place.

EG: The dealer or other owner removes his/her name. The courts order the title to be assigned to one or the other person and so on.

If one person on the car loan wants to move out and take the car and the other person will not let you what legal rights do they have?

The car loan has nothing to do with ownership. It all comes down to who's name is on the title. If only one name is on the title, that name controls the vehicle. If both of you are on the title, you'll have to come to some type of agreement on your own. You may try to seek legal advice from a local attorney. State laws vary as to ownership rights. Keep in mind, If both names are on the car loan, you're both responsible for the repayment of the loan regardless of who has possession of the vehicle. Good luck!

Who has the rights to a vehicle that was purchased boyfriend and girlfriend that just broke up?

It depends on who's name was placed on the title. If both names were were placed on the title with an "and" between them, then the car is owned jointly. If on "or" was used then the whoever has the title could sell it. If just one name was placed on the title then that person owns the vehicle. It depends on who's name was placed on the title.

Ex will not sign title to car you used for a trade the title is in both your names this is a straw purchase but can you do?

It depends on how the title is worded. If both names are on it as "or", for example, john smith or jean smith, you do not have to have his signature to sell it. If it is john smith "and" jean smith, both are required to sign it in order to sell it.


If you have a cosigner for an auto loan do both names have to be on the car's title?

The lender will probably insist that all names on the title also be on the loan, but not the other way around.


If you cosigned for someone and the buyer is 4 months behind on payments and is also hiding the truck from you can you sue him if both of your names are on the title?

It depends upon the wording of the title. If the names on the title are separated by the word "or" then each person owns the vehicle separately and may take whatever action without the consent of the other owner. If the names on the title are separated by the word "and" then any action concerning the vehicle, sale, possession, etc. must be agreed upon by both parties. Although the law generally assumes that the person who is in possession of the vehicle can remain so unless a court rules otherwise. Disputes over jointly owned vehicles by unmarried persons almost always ends up in litigation if the injured party wishes to recover the vehicle or financial damages incurred because of the situation.
