It's okay, we're going to figure this out together. She has a car - do you know the license plate number? Is it yours? You may report it as stolen if the car title is in your name - reporting a stolen vehicle puts it on the map a whole lot faster than just a missing person report...

If so, the way to do it is to file a separate report - tell them that IN ADDITION to your daughter missing, your car is missing as well and you wish to report it stolen. Don't let them talk you out of it, because you have a right to file it as stolen if you don't know where it is... this way the vehicle will be added into the database faster in most cases, and will be stopped if it is seen.

The car is in my name because she's a minor. They have her license plate number and it sticks out like a sore thumb because it's her name. I just got off the phone with CPD and they told me that I would have to come downtown to file a report on the car because it's now considered a "conversion of trust" (whatever that means). The dispatcher said she would add the car info to the report, which REALLY upsets me, because the officer shoud have done that in the first place.

That is a great idea, unathorized use of a vehicle is how it comes across the scanner here in my area.
