You can take possession of a used car immediately if you have signed the paperwork for the loan or if you have paid cash. Sometimes the dealership will need to wash or clean out the car and they may have you wait.
Yes. My fiancee and I just did that (California). We did not take physical possession of the car, and nor did we take "constructive possession." I.e., taking the keys to the car and leaving the car on the lot.
Yes. That's why the credit union has possession of the title. If you used the car as collateral for a loan and default on the loan the lender will take possession of the car and sell it to offset what you owe on the loan.
Yes, a co-buyer can take possession of the car if they are listed on the title and have a legal right to do so.
Yes, if the car is registered in your husband's name, he has legal ownership and can take possession of it.
I was told buy a used car manager that if the car does not leave the lot you do not own it. Even if the paperwork is all done. once it hits the street its yours.
On a new car it is 3 days after you pay for it.
In Colorado you have perched a used car and have not taken possession of the car due to repairs you have second thought and wish to back out of this deal
No, you can't.
IF her name is NOT on the TITLE or loan, it is YOUR car and you can take possession of your car. Be SURE she doesnt have a contract with you.
Well, if you take possession of the car, you cant be charged with stealing your own car so, a civil suit would be the next choice.
Don, IF your name is on the title as co-owner, you would just be taking possession of your own car. If its NOT on the title, you cant take possession legally.Why not go to the person in possession and tell them to give up the car??
Take advice from some good car dealers, they will explain you better.
