Lien Releases
The Department urges motor vehicle finance companies in New York to cooperate in complying with the New York Vehicle and Traffic Law by mailing or delivering a lien release immediately upon satisfaction of the lien on a motor vehicle.

Consumers and lien holders looking for information on vehicle lien releases should visit our Obtaining a Lien Release on a Vehicle page.
