The state of Montana is implementing a new vehicle titling and registration process. The new program, CARS, will be replacing the previous program they have used since 2009.
The goal of the new system is to offer more online services to customers including electronic payment options and improved turnaround time for vehicle service transactions.
All Montana Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) exam stations will be closed, and state county treasurer offices will not be processing vehicle transactions, on Thursday, March 13, and Friday, March 14.
The Cascade County office received the new equipment in November has been training with the new system in preparation for the launch.
“We will open with the new program on March 17th. Customers will be able to come in, it's going to be a whole new program, so expect the wait time until we learn the program. We're still learning ourselves,” said Diane Heikkila, Cascade County treasurer.
