Michigan title correction Use the official starting point

What to bring

  • current title or title record details
  • supporting documents that prove the correction
  • title correction fee when Michigan charges for the correction
  • lien release or lienholder documentation when the correction affects lien data

Likely next steps

  1. Identify the exact title error and gather the documents that prove the correction before scheduling the Secretary of State visit.
  2. Use Michigan's title-correction process rather than assuming a normal transfer or renewal will fix the record.
  3. Do not sell or transfer the vehicle against a Michigan title that still contains a material error.
