I am curious how he could finance a car and not have the encumbrance recorded on the automobile title.

Automobiles are titled vehicles, and states have regulations on how they are used as collateral for loans. In most states I know of, the encumbrance is recorded on the title. In some states, the encumbrance may be of record with the Department of Motor Vehicles.

It might be worth an inquiry into whether or not the finance company has a valid lien. Look at your certificcate of title. Do you have a certificate of title? It might also be worthwhile calling DMV on their toll-free line.

There are too many unanswered questions here. I am not going to go so far as to say that the finance company is unsecured on this loan, but it remains a possibility.

If the registration or title is in your name and you can prove that you paid for the car in full (always pay your ex boyfriend in check or money order to have a paper record of payment), the car will belong to you.

the finance compay until you pay it off...but it is curious as to how you could put the registration in your name...usually state make the person financialy responsible on the car register it...but since the registration is in your name it will be yours...but he does have certain rights if you don%26#039;t pay...if you don%26#039;t make payments he has the right to get the car since he is responsible for it

Since the car is in your name, you are the legal owner. When the car is paid off make sure you get the title in your name ASAP. I would also contact the finance company and see about maybe getting the loan transfered to your name, but you might have to put more money down, which would also lower the payment amount.

it is the finance company%26#039;s until it is paid for. If he stops payment they can come and retrieve it at anytime.

Even if you dont get it into your name you need to contact the finance company.

You wont be privy to any info on the loan currently, you need to change that. Have your ex add you with full rights to it so that you can always call and get up to date info directly from them instead of relying on him. You can also make the payments directly to them instead of relying on him as a go between. You will also want to give them your contact info so they know to call you if a payment is missed.
