If your "ex" has a court order mandating that your name be removed from an automobile loan per a marital dissolution agreement and the "ex" refuses to do so, you should do the following:
1. write the "ex" seeking that your name be removed from the car loan per the court order by a certain date. Keep a copy of the letter for future reference and need;
2. if the due date comes and goes per your letter and your name is still on the loan, your legal recourse is to file a petition with the court for an order to show cause regarding contempt of a court order against the "ex".
