Can a car dealership force me to stay in state until my loan has been paid?

Question:
Hello there...here's my problem. I live in Arkansas, and I have not been able to find a steady job that I can hold down, and that I enjoy doing. Recently, I went to Washington to visit a friend, and I saw a lot of opportunity for jobs, and I plan on moving up there, and taking my car with me to help me move my stuff. Here's the problem. When my father talked to the car dealership, they supposedly said that they would not let me leave the state until my loan was paid. Both my father and I are listed on the loan papers, and I plan on paying on the loan once I get settled and get a steady job, so it's not like I plan on skipping out on the car payments. I haven't checked my contract, but barring something on the contract, can they force you to stay in the state of purchase until the loan is paid off? The car dealership is one of those smaller 'buy here pay here' type of places. Any help with this would be certainly appreciated.

Where can i find and LDV van?

not in the contract? no they can't.
but it may well be in the contract.
they've probably had people skip out before, and it's a real hassle to go get the car when they stop paying.
it would be to your benefit if you haven't missed any payments.
but even so, they're not likely to be very flexible.

If it is an option refinance through your bank or loan company. I have purchased cars that way before and never heard of such a thing. Unless it is in writing and clearly states such, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as they are getting paid what can they do. If they are holding the title and will obstruct you from registering in another state that does not sound right.If you keep the car registered at your current address it is a non-issue. They can't legally tell you you are not allowed to leave the state. Unless they are the ones insuring the car.obviously not..sounds like a sticky situation...good luck

i don't think they can force you to stay in the state because your father is also on the loan and they only want to receive the payment of the loan. they don't care where the car goes as long as they get their money. that how small dealership work.just tell they that you will pay off the loan and that you have to work outside of the state in order to pay the loan. the dealership will understand. since your father is on the loan he can say that he will be making sure that the payments will get on time. if it works you can go outside of the state freely.

What are the full details that one get from the carfax?

Big brother has not completely taken over our lives YET! They CANNOT prevent you from leaving the state. They MAY however be able to prevent you from taking the vehicle as it technically is up to their discretion as to whether you can take it. I personally have taken vehicles out of state WITH consent of financial institution, remember, IF you make payments, as per contract, there is not much they will be able to do, as long as you STAY current with your payments, it just would not be worth their effort.

You should be able to leave the state. Most loans are backed by a bank (financial institution) and not funded by the car dealer. If you're using second-chance financing, the dealer might be liable for the loan if you skip out. That depends on the contract.
