Transferring Car's Title is Donor's Responsibility

For-profit companies hired by charities provide convenient services to encourage Americans to donate their cars, campers, trucks, motorcycles and RVs.
But the donor still bears responsibility for transferring the title of ownership.
If the donor is not careful, he or she can face liability problems down the road if ownership is not legally changed. The transfer usually requires the donor to file a form with the state motor vehicle department stating the car was donated.
