I don't understand what you mean by "limit potential liability". Parents are liable for anything a minor does regardless of whose name the car is in. If the parents are seeking to escape liability for accidents when the child is no longer a minor, then titling the car in the minor's name would be the way to go. This does assume they're comfortable with throwing their no-longer-minor child to the wolves.
