What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oregon

I am needing to recover my vehicle from a private residence in Washington State.
The vehicle is titled in my name with no other interest holder, however it is highly likely the person in possession of the vehicle will not cooperate.
Does the the vehicle title give me sufficient proof of ownership to recover my vehicle from the property, assuming no breach of the peace? Can i ask a Sheriff to observe/accompany?

so, why is the car in the possession of another person. Ownership alone is not the end all regarding possession of a vehicle. Explain the situation if you want anything close to an accurate response.

You need to sue the person in court. A cop would be a fool to step in and help on this and unless you get a court to adjudicate the contract has been breached, you only have an allegation of a breach.
