Request and track the Chrysler Capital title packet to Virginia
Virginia titles a leased vehicle in the lessor's name. If the lessee is not on the title record, Virginia says the lessee may handle titling and registration with a power of attorney from the lessor.
Virginia says leased vehicles may not appear in the lessee's online DMV record, so keep the registration and authorization copies together.
Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Virginia controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Virginia
Check whether the lessee appears on Virginia's title record. If not, ask the lessor for a power of attorney that covers both title and registration paperwork.
- 02Open the Chrysler Capital request
Ask the destination motor vehicle office what it needs. The chryslercapital.com website now redirects to Santander Consumer USA, so use Santander's Titles page for the state-change request.
- 03Use the official channel
Contact the State Titling Division for a formal request, then send that request to Santander by mail (Santander, Titles Department, 1601 Elm St., Dallas, TX 75201) or by fax (214-237-3549). Santander Consumer USA lists 800-526-0157 for titles, Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. CT. That is Santander's number, not a confirmed Chrysler Capital lease line, and Santander's Titles page describes no separate lease process, so lessees should confirm lease steps with Santander.
- 04Confirm usable receipt
The lessor is the titled owner and is responsible for the title fee and sales and use tax at titling, though Virginia DMV says the leasing agreement may sometimes require the lessee to make these payments. The lessor's power of attorney gives the named lessee authority to handle the vehicle paperwork when the lessee is not on the title record.
What to ask Chrysler Capital for
Santander's Titles page says printing an electronic title averages four to six weeks, and the new state should then receive the title within fifteen business days after Santander gets the printed title. It gives no lease-specific time, so start before the destination deadline and record the request date.
