Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THE CAR LISTED ABOVE IN FEBRUARY 2014. DUE TO TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, I WENT TO TRADE THIS CAR IN AND PURCHASE A NEWER ONE. I WAS THEN INFORMED BY THE SALESMAN THAT THERE WAS A DISCREPANCY WITH THE MILEAGE ON THE CAR I WAS TRADING IN. THE HISTORY REPORT SHOWED MY CAR AT 281,762 MILES IN JULY OF 2013. AT THE TIME I WAS TRADING THE CAR IN IT HAD A MILEAGE OF 161,787. WHEN I WAS SOLD THE CAR IN FEBRUARY OF 2014 THE MILEAGE WAS LISTED AT APPROXIMATELY 140,000 MILES. THERE WAS NO NOTICE ON THE CAR INDICATING AN ENGINE SWAP OR ODOMETER SWAP. THE CAR WAS SOLD AT A PRICE OF $5500 DOLLARS DUE TO THE OUTSTANDING MILEAGE FOR THAT YEAR. I NOW BELIEVE THIS TO BE A COMMON PRACTICE AT THIS CAR LOT AS I DID NOT TRADE THE CAR IN AND RETURNED IT BACK TO THE CAR LOT. *TR
