Hello,
My wife and I bought a used car from a very reputable Ford dealer here in Denver in Aug of last year. Fast forward 5 months and we still don’t have permanent tags for our car. The dealership has now given us 3 temp tags so that we can drive the car.
The temp tag we had expired so I called the dealership to see what the issue was and to get another tag for the car. The dealership said that they got the car off an out of state trade in and that They are still trying to get the pervious owner to sign a power of attorney for the car. The previous owner is unresponsive to the dealership and has not returned their calls. So here I am 5 months later with no tags and the title still in the pervious owners name. I have been making payments on our car this whole time.
My questions are:
A. Shouldn’t the dealership have squared all this away when they got the car in on trade?
B. What happens in the event that the dealership is unable to get the power of attorney signed? I asked the dealership this questions and they said that they would take care of it.
PLease help if anyone has any info on what To do, The local DMV is no help.
