I imagine (not a lawyer) that this expose you to a variety of charges.

IANAL, but I think in California as long as you don't use excessive force it's ok, but yeah if you kill the engine at a high speed or if you get unlucky and the thief gets seriously injured then you will get in trouble if they want to go after you.
Who's gonna sue him? The car thief?
Potentially, or more likely the public prosecutor after the coroner's report comes in.
