How long does the company have after the car is sold to sue for amount owed on car?

This is an almost impossibility, unless the title has been doctored. If "the company" sold person A the car, the title contains that company's name as a lien holder, which means that the car cannot be transferred to another person without the approval of "the company". Look at a car title from a dealership, for example, and see what color it is. Then look at a title for a vehicle that is paid for and is free and clear. The dealership title has the dealership name on it as the lien holder, different color title. The free and clear title has no lien holder and is a different color. If a car has been sold with a lien holder, person A is responsible for payment for the car, regardless of who is driving it.

What is title jumping in Illinois?

title jumping is when you sell a car to person a, then person a sells the car to person b. Person a never changed ownership of the title to their name and person b didn't either. which means your still the owner of the car. I had a friend that sold his car to guy, the guy sold the car to a woman. She got into a terrible accident and by law they were responsible for the accident because the titled owner of the vehicle is financial responsible for liability. He had to prove he was no longer the owner of the vehicle.

How do you register a car in your name if you don't have the title and the owner is in jail?

Ask the DMV for a duplicate title on behalf of the person in jail. And make sure you're putting the car in your name for a good reason. * Only the owner of the vehicle can obtain a duplicate title. The only option is for the incarcerated person to obtain the title and sign it over to the person wishing to purchase the vehicle. All vehicles must have a clear title (no lienholder) before it can be sold.


How do you get the title changed on a car if the person who sold it to you is out of state?
