You have to return the car to the authorities, because it was stolen from the original owner. If you keep the car you could be held as an accessory to car theft.

You will get the money back for the car from the criminals through the court in the form of compensation.

What can you do if you bought a car but the seller was not the vehicle's owner and now you have to do the title transfer but you don't have the former owner's information?

It sounds like you bought a stolen car. You cannot register a Title if you do not have a Title signed over to you with the Registered Owner's signature. If this is your situation, you can take the SELLER to small claims court to return your money. But, in the meantime, take the car to the police to see if it is stolen. If it is and you're caught driving / in possession of it, YOU can be charged.


If you buy a salvage vehicle with no title and repair it how do you get a title?

Go to the state Motor Vehicle office, where you would normally register a vehicle. There may be extra steps to take to get title for a salvaged vehicle. Don't buy cars without getting a title. EVER. If the car was stolen you may have to return it.

What are your rights if you bought a used car from a dealer that did not have the title until a month after the purchase?

The dealer has to give you the title right away. If you have it now, there's not much you can do. You have the title. But before you got it, you could have returned the car as far as I know. I would have the title ran and check to see if it's a stolen car or anything. If it is, you can return the car and get your money back.
