So here is my situation, I baught a car from someone and the speedometer was broken. Now I want to sell it but the mileage has not changed. will DMV notice and say something. I will let the new buyer know that I has about 30,000 miles more that posted, but do you think It will be a problem with the paper work.

 

if it has a salvage title, the DMV wont care. If it has a clean title.. then you are fucked. XD

 

The Title is clean, What is the step I need to take.

 

go to the dmv and tell them whats up

 

The speedometer broke, nothing illegal about that, there should be a check box that says "this milage is not the actual milage" or somthing like that. When I got my CRX it said it had 18k miles or some ****, one of the previous owners rolled it back obviously but I just went ahead and inspected/registered it with the milage it said and nothing bad happened lol. I'm sure on the carfax it'd show that the milage went randomly back down but who cares? I'd never try to lie and sell it as low milage anyway.

 

It reads the mileage from when it actually broke, it just has not changed since I have owned it.

I just want to sell it now. I think It should be obvious the mileage is not accurate....considering when the new buyer tests drive it, the mileage won't change.

I have seen on a 'vehicle transfer form' where it say's " is mileage accurate"

 

All you have to do is check the box that says "actual mileage not shown" On the title when you sell it, and write a note saying what the problem is on the bill of sale.

And then everything is fine.

how old is it? vehicles over 10 years old are exempt from mileage checks anyways. i wouldn't worry about it too much.

 

The best thing to do is just go to the dmv and ask. They should tell you the correct steps to take...or just fix the speedo and thats it..

 

Just take it to the DMV, If its older than a certain year, they can exempt the mileage. Thats what they did on my title.

 

how soif it has a salvage title, the DMV wont care. If it has a clean title.. then you are fucked. XD

sirhavok???? what are u talking about?


? i bought my rex without the cluster, clean title

yup, true dat.. and most states have an age where cars go mileage exempt on titles (like somone else said)... the 90 DA I just sold was like that

 

It's a 1990, (actually the pink slip reads a 1989)
so about 17 years old

 

you can have the mileage excempt. My 91 crx had 210k on it, but the dmv didnt care because the previous owner allowed the mileage to be excempt.

so do that and your peachy. wether the odometer is broken or not, it doesnt matter when the mileage is excempt.
