U.S. Bancorp Consumer Loan Complaint

U.S. Bancorp Consumer Loan department,

Vehicle loan Managing the loan or lease Ohio

On - -, 2016 my wife and I received an auto loan for a private party purchase of a vehicle. The seller went to the branch with us to sign the paperwork. After 3 weeks of not receiving a copy of the lien title needed for registration I contacted the bank. They said the lien had not been released by the previous owner 's bank. They had not communicated to me that there were any problems. I asked them to contact the bank that had the seller 's lien but the said they could not. I contacted the seller, she had the lien released on -/-/16. She went back to her bank and obtained the title and a letter releasing the lien. I took it to my local US bank branch the following day on -/-/16. I was told they had to " send it to the loan department for processing, it will take 10 business days at the most. '' I asked them to please expedite the process and they agreed to " try. '' After not receiving the title, not being contacted I emailed US bank yesterday -/-/16 and they replied today stating " Good Morning -, I called our Loan Department for a status on this. A notification was sent to the branch needing the seller to sign a one in the same affidavit since she had a name change and the names are not recognized by the county. Once this is complete, it will be sent to the county after 10 business days. I apologize for any inconvenience. '' They should have recognized this when we bought the vehicle and more importantly they should have communicated the problems prior to today. My local branch has not contacted us or the seller either. Now we have to wait a minimum of another 10 business days before we can register the vehicle. We have already made our first payment on the loan but do not have the vehicle legally in our name.
