Hey all -

Wanted to check to see if anyone out there has dealt with gmac auto
finance...

I made a deal to buy a 2003 Vibe from a guy, but he just found out that
it's going to take 2 weeks to get the clear title back from gmac once he
sends in the payment.

I wanted to see if anyone had any experience with getting a cleared title
from gmac more quickly after paying off a loan - any way to speed it up so
that he can transfer the title to me faster?

Thanks!

Find out where the title is, which GM facility, usually a regional office.
Get a certified money order or check, go with him to the facility and do the
deal.

Go to a title agent.  They can pay off the loan and issue issue a temporary
title/registration on the day of sale.

Wish it wss that easy...  apparently in Michigan you have to do all private
title transfers at a Secretary of State office.

Also got ahold of gmac and they said there was no way to pick it up in
person...  3-5 day hold for cashiers check, plus mailing time both ways ;(

One thing about asking for advice, you are free to take the advice you are
offered or not, as you see fit

If you are in Michigan YOU should have the title.  Finance companies do not
hold the title in Michigan.  Take cash to any gmac office , tell them to
bring up the balance in the computer and pay what is owed.  Have them sign
off the lein on the release of lein line on the title and be on your way.
If they won't let you pay it off and release it that way tell them you want
it in writing that they will not accept your payment.  Get the branch
manager involved.  Refusal of payment cancels debts in some states.  Remind
the Branch Manager of this.
