Existing law provides one lien sale procedure for vehicles that have been determined to have a value that does not exceed $4,000 and a different lien sale procedure for vehicles that have been determined to have a value exceeding $4,000. Existing law requires a lienholder to apply to the Department of Motor Vehicles for the issuance of an authorization to conduct a lien sale, upon an application that is to be executed under penalty of perjury.
