Father and daughter hold joint title to car; father made a loan of deposit money to daughter and had his name put on title to guarantee he would be paid back; monies never paid back and title never changed; bank loan paid off; father dies. Title remains in joint names.

There is a Will with specific bequest to daughter, no mention of this vehicle. Estate goes to wife.

Does title go to wife - as sole beneficiary - and now she owns 1/2 a car? Or does title go to daughter and now she owns whole car?

How is the title made out, if it is made in a way for survivorship,
But yes it is possible that the mother could end up owning 1/2 the car.

Nope, title simply in joint names, no survivorship. Thanks.
