Did you register your car in your state? Maybe the vin# doesn't match your personal/ identity, information. Some years ago I got a loan on one of my vehicles, soon after, I filed for bankruptcy. Upon completion of bankruptcy I went to claim the title to my car from the loan agency, but for some reason, after three years of paying off the debt they destroy all unclaimed titles. So I went to vehicle registration department, but they couldn't match my name/information to said vehicle. The vehicle was still registered to the car lot where I bought it. Being that the car lot didn't exist any longer I was able to register my car under my name. Once a vehicle is paid off, you need to bring proof of it to vehicle registration to be able to register it under your name (Texas) So, in your case, if you haven't done so take your import documentation to your vehicle registration department to have it registered to you in your state/country. I hope this helps some. Good luck.
For a vehicle made after 1980 the VIN must have 17 characters and not contain the letters I, O, or Q. Hope that helps! Jim
