you basically as everyone is pointing out , did everything wrong..
Insurance/registration despite what many people believe dont cover "anyone" to drive it.. insurance only usually covers the driver who is the insurer , nobody else, otherwise people with shitty driving records would just get other people to insure their car..
Verbal agreements are almost useless , unless it was said in front of a judge . dont even bother trying.
I dont blame her for wanting her cash before the title is handed over , but if you dont trust a person to do so then dont make financial agreements verbally. Why would you expect her to sign over the title without you paying... i realise you feel gyped about the mechanical problems , but shit happens , its very likely if the vehicle is over 5 years old that it worked fine and did just happen to break while you used it.. cant charge her for that , its not like she told you or you expected that every piece on the car came with a warranty.
Its a minivan if its anything older than 10 years its not worth 2k just consider it an expensive lease and tell your friend to take it back you cant afford it.. it sucks but besides the financial burdone being released an emotional burder ( the lady ) will also vanish.. dump iut , dump her , dont do verbal financial agreements of any kind..
