I would have the DMV run the VIN and make sure the car wasn't stolen and isn't currently registered in someone elses name. Then you can apply for a salvage or lost title but I'm sure the DMV will advise to the best of your interest.

If two years after a car was bought the buyer still has not received the title and they have no way to contact the seller how do they get a title?

Send all of the vehicle details to the Licensing Authority along with your details and tell them to register the vehicle to you. If there are any problems with the vehicle registration they will let you know. Wow, you paid for a car and never got a title?! You NEVER pay for a car without receiving the title and further, you should do a title check BEFORE a purchase to make sure there's no liens on it! How did you register the car without a title? Did you register the car? How do you know the person who sold you the car was actually the owner? It could have been stolen, in which case the authorities will take the car if you ever do an inquiry. Now if you mean that the state never mailed you the title to the car after you applied then you just contact your DMV but I doubt that's what you mean...


Can you register a car when your name is not on the title?

I would say no. You cannot insure a vehicle that you do not own. I know in my state the registration is issued in the name of the person who owns the vehicle. I don't know of any instance where it would be different.

Does a Private party have to disclose salvage title?

No, but it's very unethical! Plus, the buyer will find out when he goes to register it and may come over to your house and kick your ass. Is it worth it? Would you want someone to do that to you? Now, if you were a buyer who unwittingly bought the car with a salvage title, sorry! Best to run the title number by the DMV before you buy so you know the title brand before you buy.


How do you register a car with a present junk title. I keep on getting the round around from the DMV and the last register owner.?

I don't mean to pry, as I can't actually answer your question. I just wanted to let you know that the DMV is giving you the "run around" and not the "round around." Personally, I think each person who works at the DMV is instructed how to give the "run around." The only useful piece of advice I can give is that you should refer to the title as a "salvage" title and not a "junk" title. ----


I got a used 4 wheeler and I don't have a title because the person got it used too is there a way for me to find the real owner to ask him her to pay it off so I can get the title of it in Michigan?

You can try to contact the person who you bought it off of and see if they know who owned it. You can also try to talk to the company and see what they can do.

Can you register a vehicle without a title?

That varies from state-to-state and based on the type of vehicle. Most motor vehicles will need a title in most states. I know that Ohio requires only a bill of sale to register a moped. All other motor vehicles need a title for registration in Ohio. Consult with your state's BMV.
