Re: lien on vehicle
Your mother's paid for car cannot be liened. However if payments are not met, the creditor will sue. If the creditor gets a judgment against your mother, the creditor may be able to execute against her assets, including the paid for car. If she has title to the car, she should take possession and sell it to limit her liability.
