Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

I bought a car with my adult child to get her started with credit. I am the primary, she is the co-signer. I had an agreement with her for her to give me X dollars a week to cover the car payment and the insurance. She paid me once, left town with the car. I have not seen her for three weeks and she will not answer her phon. Can I report the car stolen I have to make the payments so my credit is not ruined.
