Yes, the IRS can seize a jointly owned vehicle if one of the co-owners owes taxes. They have the authority to enforce tax collection by levying assets, including jointly owned property.

Can the IRS levy property that is owned in the name of the innocent spouse when the liability was incurred prior to marriage?

No, If this was liability under the individual while he was single, then his/her current spouse will not incur that liability. Secondly, the IRS can't "levy" and asset per say;they normally seize bank account,wages,IRA's or Social Security Benefits. If the vehicle is financed, the IRS isn't going to levy (seize) it. The bank is holding the title and is listed as the first lien holder on that title. If the IRS tried to take it, the bank would just assert their position as the senior secured creditor and take the car themselves. The Internal Revenue Code says that the IRS cannot levy / seize an asset if there would be no net proceeds to the IRS from the seizure. They would get nothing in this case, therefore they will not seize the car.

What if your mother quit claimed your home back to you recently and you have a fed IRS lien against you can the IRS seize this property you live in Arkansas?

An IRS Lien attaches to all property that you own, and it also attaches to "after-acquired" property (property that you acquired after the filing of the lien).Even though the house was quit-claimed to you after the filing of the lien, the lien has now properly attached to it. This means that the IRS could, technically, seize the home. It should be noted that if this house is your primary residence, the IRS cannot seize a primary residence without the order of the courts (which almost never happens).If you are in contact with the IRS and make a plan for resolution of the debt, the IRS will generally not seize property. The only time that IRS seizes real estate these days is in cases of blatant evasion or fraud. Your best course is to get in contact with them and work with them to take care of the taxes.

Will the bank repossess a car with IRS tax liens on it?

The IRS to my knowlege will not/and is not able to put a lien against property that is not outright owned by the person. If the bank holds the title, it is not the person's property yet and is not subject to an IRS Lien. If the vehicle gets paid off, then at that time the IRS can put a lien against it The IRS tax lien attaches to all property, real and personal. However, the IRS has a number of things working against them: 1. The title to the car is being held by the bank. 2. The bank's security interest is perfected (they are listed as a lien holder on the title). Because of this, the bank is going to have priority on the vehicle even if the IRS filed a Federal Tax Lien before the bank gave the loan.

Why does the IRS require an employee who receives a vehicle allowance for business use of personal vehicle to purchase a vehicle worth 16k new?

I don't believe the IRS has any say in the type or cost of any personal vehicle regardless of its use. The vehicle allowance is determined by the business based on their criteria.
