Financed vehicle UTV Bill of Sale — Converse County, Wyoming

Legal notes

The Truth in Lending Act (15 U.S.C. § 1601) and Regulation Z (12 CFR Part 1026) require written disclosure of all credit terms before consummation. The security interest must be perfected by recording the lienholder on the vehicle title with the state DMV. Buyers do not have a statutory right of rescission for vehicle purchases (rescission applies to home-secured credit under Reg Z § 1026.23).

Converse County clerk office and recording fees

Bill-of-sale filings and title transfers for a financed vehicle utv sale in Converse County are filed at the Wyoming county clerk in Converse County (sometimes called the recorder, tax collector, or treasurer depending on the state). The office accepts the signed bill of sale, the assigned title, and a completed title application. Recording fees vary by document type; expect a base fee plus per-page charges for additional pages.

For office hours, recording fees, and accepted payment methods in Converse County, call the county clerk before visiting or check the Wyoming DMV directory at https://www.google.com/search?q=Wyoming%20DMV%20title%20transfer.

Filing deadline: Wyoming requires title transfer within 30 days of the sale date. Plan the Converse County clerk visit promptly to avoid penalty fees on late filings.

Wyoming lien-release procedure for liened utv sales

If the utv carries an active lien, the seller cannot transfer clean title to the buyer until the lien is released. Wyoming handles this through a documented sequence that the lienholder, seller, and buyer must complete in order. Skipping a step often means the new title is issued with the lien still noted, blocking resale.

1. Lienholder completes the lien release section on the back of the existing Wyoming title.
2. Owner submits the released title and title application at a county clerk's office.
3. Pay the title fee and receive a clean Wyoming title.

Form reference: MV Title (lien section) is the Wyoming document used to clear a lien on a utv title before a Converse County financed vehicle transfer can be recorded.

UTV recall categories to verify before a Converse County financed vehicle transfer

Open safety recalls follow the vehicle, not the owner — if the utv has an unrepaired recall when the financed vehicle sale closes, the Converse County buyer inherits the obligation to bring it to a dealer for the free fix. The NHTSA recall database flags the following categories most frequently for utv models:

• Steering
• Fuel System
• Fire Hazard
• Suspension
• Seat Belts

On average a utv model has 2.8 recalls — buyers in Converse County should run a NHTSA recall check before signing. Enter the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to pull the live status. Document any open recalls in the bill of sale so the buyer cannot later claim the seller concealed a known defect — a clean disclosure protects both parties under Wyoming consumer-protection law.
