How do you find the lien holder of a car that was purchased in another state?

Answer:
The title should show the leinholders name. Call the DMV and see if you can either obtain a copy of the title or have them tell you the leinholder.

NO STATE WILL RELEASE THAT INFORMATION UNLESS YOU HAVE A LEGITIMATE REASON BECAUSE OF THE PRIVACY LAWS. THEY NORMALLY WILL NOT RELEASE THIS TYPE OF INFORMATION.
YOU NEED A LIEN SERVICE TO DO THIS......autolienservice.com
