Yes, you can have a car repoed. BUT if its been 'stolen" as you posted, wouldn't that be putting a repoman in danger ???That's why very few repo cos. do "private party repos." few people take the time to get the paperwork right, ect.

What could have been the problem that made an automobile that you purchased be registered under someone else name or where was the fault after you submitted all the requirements for registration?

Not information is known in order to answer. It could have been a DMV clerical error. You could have bought a stolen car. The VIN plate could have been swapped out with another car. You could have bought a salvaged car pieced together with parts from several other wrecks. (???) Too much is unknown. Ask the person you bought the car from or the DMV if they can help you.
