Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Colorado

My ex-father in law has a vehicle that is in my name. We have no written agreement regarding the car. He was driving it and making payments. He stopped making payments on the vehicle. The lien is in my name, as is the registration, with title technically in Chase (the bank it is financed through). Chase was going to repo the car so I paid the three months plus late fees due on the vehicle and want it back. Are there any legal issues with me just having a tow truck tow it away? What can I do to get my vehicle back?

If the title is in your name, do what you need to do, without causing a 'confrontation', and knowing that you might get sued by him. Now you know the reason why detailed written contracts prepared by attorneys are for your protection.
