Paid off your U.S. Bank Auto loan? Getting the lien release and title
U.S. Bank says it handles getting the lien released from the state where it was recorded and asks you to allow seven to 10 business days after the loan is paid in full. For electronic titles it sends a lien release notice to the state, which then mails you a lien-free title. For paper titles it signs off its lien on the title and mails the paper to your address on file by standard U.S. mail.
How to ask U.S. Bank Auto for the release or title
If nothing arrived, see the next step below.
Call U.S. Bank customer service; it can also tell you whether your title is electronic or paper.
If it never arrived: If U.S. Bank did not receive a paper title, it mails you a notarized lien release notice that you take to your local licensing agency to request a lien-free title. Florida and Ohio borrowers with electronic titles must visit a local licensing agency in person to get a paper title.
