Yes - if you own it outright. But that may not be enough to cover your bill. In fact, if you choose not to pay, they will demand the title anyway so they can sell it at auction to recoup costs. Then they will put collections on you to make up any difference.

When a car gets towed and the owner no longer wants it but does not want to be liable for it what do they do?

Give your title to the "tow-er", but be sure and sign it over to him/her. Oh you mean Repo ? It depends if title is held by a bank/finance company or by a dealer. In order to salvage your credit, ask either if they will have mercy on you. Some will just let the note go. It depends on how much you already have paid and if vehicle is in decent condition.


If a car gets donated does title become salvage?

No. The title becomes salvage from the insurance company that gets a car that was involved in an accident, water damaged, fire, etc. If you donate your car, you just sign over the title to the person or charity you are donating it to. make sure you get a copy of the title front and back after you sign it over to prove you donated it so you can prove that you did for insurance and tax purposes.

I sold a car three years ago. no title transfer or anything just signed the title over. now i have a collection agency sending me letters saying i owe them cause it got towed. what do i do.?

It would be helpful if you had some documentation of this sale of any kind, but even if you don't, just tell the agency that you are no longer the ownder of the car, and tell them who you sold it to and when they sold it. Whether they believe you or not, they cannot force you to pay.

Can you trade your truck if you pawned title?

Not until you get your title back. Pay off your loan, get your title back, then you're free to do with it what you will. And if you don't pay your loan to get your title back, the pawn broker gets ownership of that vehicle, and will report it stolen if you refuse to turn over your vehicle to them.
