I do not pay for any expenses. I am a w-2 employee and I use the car to commute from home to work and other work related activities.

I think you need to ask your employer to correct things, and add the value of your personal use to your W-2.

The value of a company car's personal use is taxable income. That includes commuting, and the ability to use it on evenings and days off for personal use. There is no set procedure in the tax law for you to add this income yourself to your tax return, it's supposed to be on your W-2. If your employer refuses, there are one or two procedures that you could potentially use, although they would call the IRS' attention to your employer's failure to follow the law. Best to get your employer to do it right the first time.
