Q: I'm separated, We have a truck that's in both of our names. She stole my keys and won't let me use it. What do I do?
My wife and I are separated and have a truck that's registered in both of our names. She came to my friends house where I've been staying and when no one was saying it looking she took my keys and left. Now she won't let me use the truck. I'm unemployed and had to pass up two interviews and one doctors appointment. I mean that truck is my life line and she refuses to make arrangements so we can both use it. I mean I can't get a job with no transportation to an interview and if I was to even get a job, once again, no transportation! We've had the vehicle for a year and a half and I made every single payment on it pays the insurance every month on it. She don't work and hasn't for quite some time. So I pretty much had no choice but to pay the truck payment and insurance all this time. What can I do to get my truck back?
A: Get the vin number snd have the dealer make another key for you. Secure the truck and key both if you get it back.
