Bill Summary
This bill prohibits the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission from charging a title fee to individuals who have paid off their car loans for the re-issuance of a title without a lienholder noted on it.
AI Summary
This bill, an act of the New Jersey Legislature, prohibits the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (NJMVC) from charging a fee when re-issuing a motor vehicle title after a car loan has been fully paid off. Previously, individuals who financed a vehicle and had a lienholder noted on their certificate of ownership (the title) might have been charged a fee by the NJMVC to remove that lienholder's name from the title once the loan was satisfied. This legislation ensures that once a loan is paid in full, the owner can obtain a clear title, meaning it no longer shows a lienholder, without incurring an additional fee from the state. The act takes effect immediately upon its passage.
