I am wanting to find out my options regarding the following scenario.
In 2009 I cosigned a vehicle loan for my daughter's boyfriend. He put approximately $1000 down that he borrowed from his father. Six months later he lost his job and didn't work again. They called off the relationship in 2011. I have had possession of the truck since 2011 and it is now paid off. I made all payments except for the six or so that he paid in the beginning. I have put in over $10,000 plus repairs. The title is listed as "and/or," which in Arizona is joint ownership with survivor rights. Both signatures are required to transfer or remove him from the title. He refuses to sign the title and I am unable to legally do anything with the truck. I would like get out of this hostage situation (he is using it as a pawn due to another situation that has nothing to do with our contractual relationship).
Can I take him to small claims court? I don't want anything monetary, just a signature and maybe court fees. If not, what are my other options if any.
