Hello.
I wonder if anyone out there can give any advise on my situation.
I got a car from my friend back in 1996. As an international student (being ignorant with legal terms), I didn't check the title but it carried a lienholder. I realized it this morning when I registered my car at a different state.
I didn't hear anything about this lienholder (it is a name of company) from my friend back then and the DMV didn't say anything to me when they issued title at 1996.
I was told this morning, as far as the company does not clear the "lienholder" thing , then my title will bear it.
I wonder what I need to do now. Do I need to write a letter to the company and explain that I was not aware of the lienholder thing when I got the car?
My friend is now back in Japan and don't have his number.
Any comment or advise will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
