Wife won't add spouse's name to title 

q_v2.gifDear Terry,
My wife recently bought a car and listed her name as the only owner. She refuses to add my name to the title. We live in Arizona. What can I do, if anything?
-- Todd

If your wife bought the car on her own, she doesn't have to put you on the title -- or even let you drive it.

Depending on the divorce laws in Arizona, however, her car may be considered community property and you might be entitled to a share of it if you ever split.
