In the US, if you owe money on a car, the person who you owe money to holds the title in their name until you make the last payment in which case they will transfer the title to them. So to recap, if they have the title in their name in their possession, the vehicle is clear of liens.
Please read the entire thread before asking questions.

There is no central database to check about accidents. Carfax is a good start, a good bodyshop is a better guide.

The short answer about trading your car is you cant - you'd have to import your car into the US which with the current US dollar is pretty much silly.
