∙ 17y agoCheck with the DMV office to see what documents you need to do this. My guess is a death certificate for him and a will or some other item naming you as the beneficiary. They should have a copy of the title at the DMV. Check with the DMV office to see what documents you need to do this.

∙ 17y agoMotor Vehicle Deptment can do a title search for a fee and issue you a new title if it comes back clean.
My father had a lien on my vehicle which is registered in my name and when it was paid off last Dec, we never thought about the title and he has now passed away and his wife refuses to give me the title or have it transferred. What can I do?
If you have the paperwork showing that you paid for the vehicle you should be able to go directly to the Department of Motor Vehicles or whatever it's called in your state, and petition for the title. Altenatively, if they trustee refuses to provide title, you can sue to get your money back from the estate.
If you were named in the will, you should be able to get something from the courts allowing the Department of Motor Vehicles to transfer title to you. Without a will, everything that he owned will need to go through probate. If there is a leinholder on the vehicle, that note will need to be satisified before DMV will transfer title.
To my knowledge, yes his name will be on the title and he would have equal rights to the vehicle.
The first thing you need to do is call your local police department and give them the vin and ask them if the vehicle is stolen. You dont want to get caught trying to get a title for a stolen vehicle. Why would someone just give a car away when they can take it to a salvage yard and get a couple hundred bucks for it.
If you have the title signed by the registered owner, you can usuall get away with it but it is usually easier to bring the title holder to the trade in
You don't. Either the owner or family member,if the person has passed away must get transfer of title and then they must pass it on to you. There are a few cases where a court could transfer it over. But your question in no way states how you have come to think you should own this car.
Contact the loan company. Provide them with proof of your husband's passing (ie a copy of a death certificate) - and ask them to title the vehicle in either just yours or your daughter's name.
If you have the car, sell it, keep it, or give it away. If you no longer have the car, contact your local DMV for advice.

yes. as long as there is a written receipt stating that the "vehicle was sold AS IS and for PARTS ONLY. Title is non-transferable." or some people like to use the term "NO TITLE".
