Yes, it is your vehicle. The money owed for it's tow is due to your failure or violation. If you hope to get your vehicle back, pay the fees within thirty days. Some jurisdictions do not wait long to sell abandoned vehicles.
The vehicle's owner .
No . Not unless the owner agreed in writing to pay storage fees. You can check the laws for abandoned property in your state. You may find that you have the right to dispose of the property after six years of free storage.No . Not unless the owner agreed in writing to pay storage fees.

charges to keep your vehicle in an area that is not yours.
If the car was stored for any length of time before the title transfer, the answer is yes. * If the proceeds from the sale of the vehicle (not simply the value of the vehicle) did not cover the storage fees, the storage company could sue for the amount still owed, unless there was a contract where deficiency recovery was waived.
No, fees owed as part of a fine are not a debt you can have forgiven, your vehicle secures that debt so if you want the vehicle the debt needs to be paid.
If you are licensed shop, file an abandoned vehicle claim. Take the VIN from the vehicle to the department of motor vehicle registration in your county. For a fee of $2.00, you can get a printout of the owner's name and address. They should have available a booklet with abandonment rules. Send a certified letter to the owner stating your fees. That should get you started.
pretty much you cant
The first step is to contact the leinholder. If they think it is worth repoing. they will pay the $2000 in "storage fees". Be sure and check your state laws for how many days you have to contact the leinholder AND how many days storage the leinholder has to pay AFTER you notify them. The first $1900 in "fees" is likely an investment you will have to eat(include at NO cost). Wouldnt it be great if you could "store" your friends car until the "storage fees" were higher than any lender would pay, them you magically get the TITLE?? Sorry, this ain't Kansas and you ain't the Tinman. It don't work that way. After you notify the lender , if they decide they don't want it, you are stuck with a car and NO TITLE.Each state has laws designed to handle this situation. Call the DMV in your state for more info. Or Google "abandoned vehicle + Your state".
You will have to pay the towing fee, and any storage fees/fines in order to get the vehicle released.
Depending on your contract with the lender or repossession forwarding company, they could be responsible for the storage fees and recovery costs. Ultimately the car's owner is responsible. If the fees have not been paid and you feel they will not be, and you have not released the vehicle yet, do not release it. The vehicle is the only security you have against payment.
