Everyone has an heir. It may be a distant relative (it could even be you). Talk to the heir(s).

Consult with a local attorney.

If she wasn't married at the time of her death and doesn't have children and her parents are deceased, her brothers and sisters may be the apparent heirs. Notify them. They will hire an attorney to resolve the matter
In addition, were the cars paid off? If not, the company that holds the car note has a security interest on the autos.
