Default Re: Title Woe’s

Well, my dilemma came to an end today with success. Refer to post 14 for the back story. I deal with a small town DMV, they all know me, and usually have pleasant visits.
Keep in mind this has been going on since may of 2021.


In this case when we were all confused by the title being "flagged" in Washington state, which means they already knew there was a problem, one gal in the office put up a post it note in her cubicle with my phone # and info to check the status every so often, and by golly she did check periodically, as she would inform me whenever I came in for current tags on the rest of the fleet. Finally, she called me the other day and the flag was gone, come in and we'll try it she said.

Sure enough, the title application went thru without the computer stopping us, with the original #'s.
Next problem was the new computer system does not know what a jeep is. The old title said jeep for manufacturer, so we changed that to willys, probably correct anyway, but then for model it would not accept jeep. Pickup? she asks? well...not really I say, sport utility? well...ok !! So, its in the mail supposedly, and I am happy they did not want an inspection or worse yet assign a new modern VIN number to stick on the poor old thing ! Good luck to all who play this game !!!
