You have to pay off your car. Then they will send you the title.

The financing company has the Title.. And it can be a long process of getting the title after it is paid off.. a couple of weeks if not more at times.

No clue on that one.. I would call Toyota on that matter and get a 100% right answer.

if someone is buying your car and you owe money then there area few ways to do it. they will most likely have to get approved for a loan (unless paying cash) and within the loan papers there should be something to sign for transfer of the title from one lending company to the other along with a release of liability.

if the buyer is paying cash then you (previous owner) will need to go pay off loan amount and the bank or lending company will have you sign papers and there should be a paper that needs to be signed for transfer of title.

most states work transfer of title different ways, so the best thing to do is to call the lending company and local dmv to verify.

as for warranty, there is no specific transfer of it. If you are a second owner of the car and the car is still under warranty then you just take it into a dealer to get serviced. the vin number holds all the mileage and information about warranty work done to the car.

hope this helps

why would you xfer titles then.
first you need to find a buyer. i'm guessing you're trying to sell the car? then xfer it to their name.

you can pay it off and have the title in hand.

but the dealership usually won't buy it back from you unless you buy another car from them.

You will sign the title with the lien on it to the purchaser. After you get the check, you pay off the loan and request a lien release. This can be faxed to your bank or where ever you make the payments. The buyer gets the lien release to go with the title, and then when the new title comes it, it will go to the new owner with their info on it.
