You can consider pressing charges against him - without a clear title, the truck wasn't his to sell.





The thing is, if he didn't have full, clear ownership, he didn't have the right to sell it. So you paid money for a truck that you didn't actually, legally buy.
Reply:I ran into the same problem with a truck I purchased. A person should never buy a vehicle without seeing the title in hand. The guy I bought the car from was moving and said he had packed up the title by mistake. We filled out the paperwork for a duplicate title before he left. I wasn't in a rush to register the truck because it was a 3rd vehicle. A few weeks later instead of a title I got a letter that said that there was a lein on the titel. It listed the company as a local payday loan company. Now by this time the guy who sold me the truck was long gone and moved many states away. I contacted the loan place and told them what had happened. They said they would release the title to me if I paid off the original loan amount. It was easier to just pay it then wait. So I paid the loan off and the loan company sent me the title. If I could find the person I could take them to small claims court to get my money back from the loan but it wan't worth it to me. I would find out what is owed and try to pay it off. Then try to find the ex-owner and first try to ask for the money back and if he won't pay then go to court. If the amount owed is too much for you to pay then you could bring him to court. If the money is owed to a bank and no payments are being made then they could be looking for the truck to repo it and unfortunately if they find you have it they will repo it from you. The payday loan place that had the loan on the truck I bought was looking for the truck or the guy to repo the truck. Good Luck I know how frustrating it can be.
Reply:Sue the seller
Reply:you can get a warrant for their arrest that's really all you can do,they should have made sure it was clear before they sold it to you,you,ll have to do something though,right now its kind of useless to you or any one else,i wish you luck on this it took me a year to find a guy on a van i bought,good luck with it.
Reply:It seems like a big legal matter. Good luck.
Reply:You could ask the country court clerk to tell you who has a lean on the title, then go to them and ask if the lean had been payed and if they could sent proof of that to the Clerk so you can tag your truck, this may be the fastest way and it will need to be done sooner or later! Good Luck!
Reply:You can go and file for a lost title and they can issue you a temporary one,suing the guy will take longer.Go to where ever you register in you county city or state i dont know your state laws but you can file for lost title and still be able to drive your truck
