Long story short, purchased a used truck mid September from a major dealer here in Macon. The temporary tag has already expired and I'm on an extension I got from the county tag office. If that expires the truck won't be legally registered. Called the tag office today and it looks like they still don't have anything in the system for it. She said to check back in a couple of weeks. Called dealer and they don't have an answer, except some mumbling about out of state title taking longer than usual, etc. that they would call me back later.
So my question is, GA says 30 days. I'm assuming they sold me a truck that they didn't have the title in their possession at the time of the deal because it was bought at auction. Technically it's illegal to do that but a lot of dealers do.
If it makes a difference it's financed through a local credit union who is aware of the situation since they are the lien holder and have to have the title in their possession.
What are my legal options at this point? Or do I have to wait it out and hope for the best? I'm just frustrated and the bank is on my butt about it too.
