When buying new cars, if you ignore our advice and you trade in a used car which you still owe money on, insist that the dealer put in writing that they will pay off your car loan in 10 days or no deal. Then the dealer is liable because you took steps to protect your rights up front.
Then when you pay off the loan on your car, the lender has your title printed and you get it in the mail usually about a week later, signed or stamped to indicate the lien is satisfied. There are 2 examples below of vehicle titles where the loan was paid off.
