So the loan on the car is paid off. Bank sends Lein reliese in mail to my house. 3 weeks go by and still have not recieved the papers. Call bank and talk to some lady that said they will have to file for a lost lien. WTF does that mean. Anyone have any info on this. ---

nope. I think they just go back to corporate and order up a copy of the original. No biggie… but it might be a while. ---

lien release was sent to You? what else do You need? With a lien release & a PIF letter… Your contract is generally complete. They should be able to work up a new release in a matter of a couple of weeks. Unless You have a stip stating the bank will send the release to the DMV for You - but I’d be surprised. You make a copy of the release (preferrably a notarized copy) and take it to the DMV / mail it in. The DMV prints a new title cert with no leinholder. Unless… I completely misunderstood Your thread. ---

There may be a fee involved for the prep of the new doc though - dependant on company. ---

The problem is the bank mailed me the lien release papers on nov. 14. I have not gotten them yet. Call bank today trying to figure something out and they say they will have to file for a lost lien because its been 3 weeks sence they mailed it and it probably got lost in the mail. For what ever reason they will send send out another and have to file a claim.
