Why Calling a Vehicle 'Abandoned' Could Make Title Recovery Much Harder

If you’ve ever found a car and thought you could just call it abandoned to get a title, think again. While it may seem like a quick fix, labeling a vehicle as "abandoned" triggers a complex and lengthy legal process, especially when it comes to state rules like those in New Jersey.

From filing forms to running title searches across multiple states, to waiting months for approval, the path to ownership through an abandoned vehicle auction is filled with obstacles. In fact, many states won’t even let you hold your own auction. If you acquired a car without the title, it’s better to explore other, more straightforward options.
