Oklahoma Lien Release

If you have recently paid off a car loan, then the lien release request is a key component in your title recovery process. The lien release signifies that your loan has been satisfied, and therefore your lender no longer has a claim on the vehicle. In Oklahoma, the lienholder (lender) will notify you and Service Oklahoma in writing once the loan is paid. You will either receive a signed lien release document or you will be advised that the release was sent electronically via OkCARS. To get a new, clear title issued to you, take the proof of the lien release and your current title to your local Service Oklahoma office.
