Can I claim donation of a car if I donated it to a family member?

No money was exchanged, the value of the car was less than $3,000

No. Gifts to family members are not deductible and you cannot claim that you "donated" the car. Only donations to recognized charities can be entered as a deduction. You just did something kind and generous for a family member who needed help.
