If this person dies before the loan is paid off, will the finance company know this person passed away & demand the car be surrendered or can I just keep making payments like nothing has changed?
Thank you in advance for your help

I have power of attorney over him, the little he has, he has left to me & I am on his bank account & pay the few bills he has for him.This is all you need, the bank won't try to take the car. Unless some long lost kin come out of the woodwork you don't have to worry about anything.
Hopefully he lives to be a 100 years old & this matter will not be an issue. Originally Posted by Brooke Wilde

I would use the power of attorney to add your name to the title Originally Posted by Michael8219Do you know if I am allowed to do that while there is still a lien on the title?
May want to check and see if there are any documents that state the vehicle will be considered "paid off" if the person on the paperwork passes away.

Do you know if I am allowed to do that while there is still a lien on the title?

You two can go into the DMV & add yourself on the registration if you're not already on it. I wouldn't worry about it, just be sure you receive or have access to all the correspondence from them so there are no issues when they release the lien & title.
