Social Security number needed to purchase car

The Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles and the Ohio Attorney General's office provided incorrect information for the Dyer Streets column on Friday.

Anyone buying a vehicle from a car dealer must provide a Social Security number because state law requires the local clerk of courts to collect it before issuing a title.

Before the column ran, the Akron Area Auto Dealers Association was asked whether a dealership is legally obligated to collect a Social Security number. The group's vice president did not cite any law to that effect.

Bottom line: If you're buying a vehicle, you have to cough up your number or you won't get the vehicle.

Same story with a private sale. Summit County Clerk of Courts Dan Horrigan says the individual buying the car must provide his or her number to the clerk. The seller isn't required to do so because the clerk already has that number via the existing title.
