If your son took your vehicle several days agao and has not responded to your inquiries as to his whereabouts, you should contact law enforcement about your concerns for his welfare regardless of whether or not you gave permission for him to take the vehicle.

Be prepared to give a description of your son and vehicle to law enforcement to assist in the location of him and the vehicle. From what you have written, it does not seem that the taking of your vehicle was something that was not allowed to be done by your son.
