More details to this question:
my father died without a will in new jersey. he had a car that he was still making payments on. The bank that holds the note told us if my siblings and I sign letters that we are not interested in buying the car, my daughter can buy the car from the bank without having to go through probate. My father did not have any debt. Is this true?

Do you want to buy the car?  If you do - and the bank will allow you to do that without being the administrator of his estate then do that.   If you do not want the car, then turn it back over to the place where it was purchased.
