Bought 5th wheel from private seller with lien - problems

Get your money back ASAP and buy something else. I don't know where you live but in Indiana, state law requires delivery of a valid title on any titled vehicle at the time of sale. New cars are a little different as you get a MSO after a few days. If there is a title, you need to get it to own the vehicle.

If what you paid was less than the lien, the bank WILL NOT release the title. Until the seller coughs up the rest of the money, he still owns the RV. Titles are a bearer bond.
