What is the name of your state? Missouri
I bought a car in 2001 suzuki in july. I got a loan through a bank to pay for the loan. the person i bought the car from was the co-signer on the loan. i drove the car for about 30 minutes and the engine blew. they guy told me he would pay to repair the car. i left for a trip the next day and he told me it would be sitting in my drive way when i get back with a new engine in it. i get back and the guy decided he was not going to do anything to help pay for the repair or anything. i still have not received the title to the car and his mother still needs to sign the title in order for it to be in my name. i was wondering if there was anyway i can legally default on the loan and give the car over to the bank for the collatoral and no longer have to pay for the loan. proper paper work for a car loan is to have the title in hand and signed over before the paper work is filed. the bank failed to do so. therefore the paper work was done improperly leaving me with no car and still having to make payments. do i have a legal leg to stand on?
