Bassa -- I hope you realize that, although "my father's car" implies "my father has a car," they are not interchangeable. "My father has a car" is a complete sentence. "My father's car" is just a noun phrase. I want to be sure you understand the difference.

My sister had an accident with my father's car.

My sister's money was used to pay for the damages to my father's car.

My father's car is as good as new, but my sister's money is no longer hers.
