A car title lien release is needed once you pay off your car loan. In Ohio, most lenders will use the electronic lien system (ELT) to automatically initiate the process as soon as your loan is paid in full. Through the ELT, they notify the Ohio BMV with the necessary details, and then the BMV will mail you a new, clear paper title. If your lender does not use the ELT, they may mail you the paper title that has been signed by them, along with a separate lien release document. You will need to take both of these to your local County Clerk of Courts Title Office to apply for a clear title. If you cannot reach your lender, you may need to go to the BMV for assistance with a bonded title.
