Apologies for being off topic but I thought someone may have run into
this problem I'm currently having. I paid off my Explorer last
February and have yet to receive the lien release or clear title from
Chase Bank. I've made numerous phone calls to them over the last 8
months with no luck. Does anyone know which state agency or
department has jurisdiction over a problem like this. I'm trying to
find out who I can complain to or how I can light a fire under Chase's
butt. I live In Arizona.
Re: Question regarding paid off vehicle/lien release
Did you receive a lien release from the bank when you paid off your
note? If so, take the release form along with your original title to
the Department of Motor Vehicles in your state.
The DMV will print a clear title for a fee. Most likely the bank will
not reimburse you for this fee, since they already sent you the release
form. As long as you keep the release form with the original title
there is no reason to have a clear title created. The laws vary from
state to state, so you may want to check with your local DMV to confirm
this.
Good luck,
Steven

No, that's the problem. I've contacted both DVM and the State
Attorney General's office to see who has jurisdiction.

It may cost you, but I would think you could go get a dup title from the DMV
and then take it to the bank and have them sign it showing the lein has been
released.
This has got to happen quite often, as many titles as banks hold and as many
times as banks change ownership. DW's car loan was sold twice...... we got
the title no problem, AFTER I called them and reminded them to send it.
