Answer
Have you tried a power of attorney? It sounds as the vehicle is still registered or owned by your friend outside the country. Your friend outside the country can give you a power of attorney for the vehicle release. Of course all the towing and storage must be paid and must state exactly what and who will retrieve the vehicle. If your friend is in the US military a notarized letter and power of attorney are quite simple to obtain. Most major banks and passport faculties outside the US are able to provide power of attorney services.
