I need to know if you are on title as well. If not there is litttle to do about the car, unless you want to pay the loan current in your ex's name. Not a wise move if you are not on title.

On the written agreement, you can sue in [small claims (less than $7,500)] court for the damages from breach of contract. If your ex is not making payments it may be because he has no money and you may never see anything, but a judgment is good for 10 years.
