If my husband owes money to credit card companies,(one of which has just put a lein on our joint bank account), can they sieze my car that is under my name only? I am not on the credit card account.

No. As to the bank account they must have a court decide your portion of the account (1/2?) before they can take any. You are not responsible for your husband's credit card debts.
