Correcting Registration Status for Broncos

If your Bronco is typically listed as Auto but you would like it to be registered as commercial, there are a few steps you will need to take in order to correct this registration status.

Steps to Correct Registration Status:

  1. Surrender the title and commercial plates
  2. Provide a Statement of Facts explaining the situation
  3. Submit REG156 for sub plates for Auto
  4. Obtain a VIN verification indicating it is an auto, not commercial
  5. Contact the bank to have the title released for correction if necessary

Surrendering Title and Plates:

The first step in correcting the registration status of your Bronco is to surrender the current title and commercial plates. This can usually be done at your local DMV office or through their online portal.

Statement of Facts:

You will need to provide a Statement of Facts explaining why you are requesting the change in registration status from auto to commercial. Be sure to include all relevant details and any supporting documentation that may help clarify the situation.

Submitting REG156 Form:

To obtain new sub plates for Auto registration, you will need to submit form REG156. This form can typically be found on your state's DMV website or obtained in person at their office.

VIN Verification:

In order to prove that your Bronco is indeed an auto and not commercial, you will need to obtain a VIN verification. This can usually be done by scheduling an appointment with a certified inspector or visiting a designated inspection station.

Note: It is always recommended to consult with your local DMV or legal advisor for specific guidance on correcting registration statuses.
