* Your credit score may be damaged.
If you have a lien on your car title, it is important to take steps to resolve it as soon as possible. This may involve paying off the debt, disputing the lien, or filing for bankruptcy.
Here are some tips for resolving a lien on your car title:
* Contact the creditor and find out how much you owe.
* Make a payment plan that you can afford.
* If you dispute the lien, you can file a complaint with the state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
