692. NOTICE OF LIEN AND SALE (FORM MV-901A)
The Lien Law requires that the garageman notify the owner (the person whose name
is on the title record) and any known lienholder of his/her intention to sell the vehicle
to recover the costs of repairs, towing and/or storage. The garageman must use form
MV-901A (Notice of Lien and Sale) or a computer-printed form that EXACTLY
duplicates the MV-901A. Every item on the form must be completed. A copy of this
notice must be given to the purchaser.
NOTE: A “known lienholder” is any person or entity: who has given the
garageman notice of their interest in the vehicle, or who has perfected a security
interest with the Department of Motor Vehicles; who is listed as a lienholder on
the certificate of title for the vehicle; or who has perfected a security interest in a
non-titled vehicle in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code.
3. CERTIFIED MAIL RECEIPTS OR CERTIFICATE OF FIRST-CLASS MAILING
The garageman must send the Notice of Lien and Sale (MV-901A) to the owner and
any other interested parties by certified or first-class mail. The original receipt for
mailing (or a legible copy) must be given to the purchaser. If a copy is provided, it
must be certified on the copy to be a “true copy of the original”. The certification
must also have an original or facsimile signature of the garageman or his/her
authorized representative.
4. ORIGINAL NEWSPAPER CLIPPING
The garageman must advertise the sale of the vehicle once a week for two
consecutive weeks, at least 7 days apart, in a newspaper circulated in the city or town
where the sale is to be held. The ad must contain the year, make and identification
number of the vehicle, the owner’s name, and the date, time and place of sale.
NOTE: The first publication must be 10 days or more after the date the Notice of
Lien and Sale (form MV-901A) is mailed. The vehicle cannot be sold until 15 days
after the date of the first publication. The sale must be held in the city or town where the lien
originated. An original clipping from the newspaper must be given to the purchaser.
5. AFFIDAVIT OF PUBLICATION
This must be a signed statement from the newspaper affirming that the advertisement
appeared in the paper. It must state that the sale was advertised once a week for two
consecutive weeks, and must specify the dates of publication. The affidavit (or a
legible copy) must be given to the purchaser. If a copy is provided, it must be
certified on the copy to be a “true copy of the original”. The certification must have
an original or facsimile signature of the garageman or his/her authorized representative.
6. GARAGEMAN’S AFFIRMATION AND BILL OF SALE (FORM MV- 901B)
Form MV-901B (Garageman’s Affirmation and Bill of Sale) is a sworn statement
from the garageman concerning the sale of the vehicle to obtain compensation for
unpaid repairs, towing and/or storage charges. Form MV-901B, or a computer-printed
form that EXACTLY duplicates the MV-901B, must be used. Everything on the form
must be completed. The form must contain original signatures of the garageman and
the purchaser. The original affirmation and bill of sale must be given to the
purchaser.
