“A car title loan is a type of loan that provides the borrower with access to quick cash in exchange for handing over the hard copy of their car title. The title loan company then places a lien against the vehicle, and you can’t receive a lien release until you pay the amount back.
In most cases, you have 30 days to pay the amount back, plus fees and interest. “
