You have not given enough facts for an exact answer . But one possible angle is to go to the Clerk of Court and effectively get the vehicle assigned to you as partial reimbursement of the funeral expenses . Assuming you did pay for the funeral with your own funds. You will need proof that the funeral is paid and that you paid it. Most Clerks of Court will walk you through the process with a small estate.
