If your name is not on the car, it is owned by and property of the person on the vehicle registration info. It is not relevant who is on the lending agreement, the person(s) whose name(s) are on the title to the vehicle and the wording of said title determines ownership. The title holder(s) have legal rights to a vehicle and if it is taken without their permission they can indeed file charges. Whether or not said charge can be "vehicle grand theft" depends upon the state law.

No a lien holder can not file a claim against the insurance company as they are not the named insured, you are. Although if there is a lien on the vehicle the insurance payment for damages to your vehicle will be in your name and the lien holder name. They then might require that you fix the vehicle so they can protect their interest in the vehicle. each lien holder is different. CORRECTION: If the lien holder is named on the policy and the vehicle has been repossessed, the lienholder has a right to recovery under that policy.
