Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??

My mom bought her 2004 volvo S80 from dealer w/ 14K miles on it (bought in aug 06) . We became been suspicious after she had to have catalytic converter changed so soon so did a background check on line using her VIN number. We discovered it had been sold at an auction with an odometer reading of 61K+ miles on it!! She bought it from a volvo dealership. I dont have experience in this. It looks like the mileage got rolled back which I know is illegal. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this? I want to help my mom but need suggestions on how to approach the dealer (the car is having a lot of probs and my mom, bless her heart is 77. I dont like people taking advantage/lying to Sr's. Thanks!Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??First, check the title and see if the %26quot;inaccurate odometer%26quot; is listed.



Second contact the police, fraud is a crime.



Third, contact a lawyer.



Fourth, get you mom some lemons and set up a lemon stand outside the dealership with a sign that says %26quot;Why buy a lemon from him? I will give you one for free%26quot; Get the proper permits and give out lemons with her story attached. Do it on a weekend.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??Get a lawyer. There are many laws protecting consumers from this type of fraud.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??Go to the dealer about it and if they deny it or won't do anything about it... go to the police. It is against the law to do that. Also, there is a lemon law. Ask any car dealership for help.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??talk to an attorney, take all your proof to him and ask him what to do!



it's called ( THE LEMON LAW )Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??well go back and tell them in secrecy that you know the car has alot more miles, and demand your money back, if he denies it then go to the police. if the police laugh at you, then its time to bring out the big guns. try using mostly FN Minimi's, and 50.00 Caliber rifles, and some granade launchers. and go after that mofo, and take all his otehr cars. thatll teach him. fight fire with fire i always say.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??you dont have to get a lawyer go to the DMV. the dealer committed fraud ,and they will get you in contact with the attorney general in your state it might not be intentional fraud but it is still totally illegal SHAME ON THEMDealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??This is unbelievable! I cannot imagine why a dealer would do this. You should first contact the dealer and ask them why they did this. Dealers are meant to sell %26quot;genuine%26quot; used cars, i.e. they are supposed to check everything on your behalf - this is why you pay a premium to buy from a dealer.



Also you should speak to the DVLA and get their advice. Then you should probably contact watch dog (on their website) and tell them what happened.



Go to your local Citizens Advisory Bureau and get their advice. If you can, get a friend to call the dealer and find out what sort of checks they do on the cars they sell - on the pretense that your friend is interested in buying a car from them.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??report this to the police this is fraud then sue for mony back.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??Just tell the dealership that you believe there is a problem with the actual mileage versus what they sold it to her with. The lemon law still stands and a dealership better understand that law. My advise is if it is a large dealership, then ask them to make it right. Like a different car of greater or equal value, a personal apology from the owner, free oil changes for life, free washes, or you will get a lawyer. You could just get a lawyer to start, either way you have a great chance of getting more out of this.Dealer sold my mom a car w/ 14K miles but did background check to find really has 61+K on it! what 2 do??Get a lawyer
