Is there any way to find a car that you used to own? |
[Edit] |
Answer
1) Contact the DMV in the state you last owned the vehicle and run a title or registration search. This costs money.
2) PublicData.com can look up the vehicle by license plate or VIN number. I have found the new owners of several of my old vehicles because I still had the VIN numbers memorized/written down. The license plate search only works in states where the plate stays with the car when sold, like Texas. This costs money also.
3) Contact the dealer you sold it to and they may be able to assist you with contacting the new owners, assuming it hasn't changed hands again. Depending on your dealer, you may have to pay them to run the same title search mentioned in #1.
4) A Carfax report can also help by telling you what state the vehicle is currently registered or titled in, but this also costs money.
