I don’t know how private small dealerships work,
I’m use to title for cash and your done doing business. Yes I have mechanic friends but they know how to fix cars they don’t know how title transfers , bill of sale and all this other junk is. It’s not like a trusty Chevy store where you can hand them $40,000 and not think twice about it.
Your state should have something called the Department of Motor Vehicles or in our state the Tag Agency handles title transfers . You should know this unless you have been driving around with unchanged titles.
I think Mr. CSA is correct you need help from some relative or friend because you are asking questions that you should know the answer to .
We seems to get some posts about reliability concerns here for Dodge, Chrysler & Jeep products , but not so much for Mazda. Isn’t Mazda considered to be among the big-three for reliability? Toyota, Mazda, Honda?
