How to Identify If a Used Car's Odometer Has Been Rolled Back?
1 Answers
You can check the maintenance records and also inspect the wear and tear on the car's tires, brake pads, brake discs, and interior. Below are specific details on how to determine if a used car's odometer has been tampered with: 1. Check the brake and accelerator pedals: The wear on the clutch pedal and brake pedal can give a rough estimate of the vehicle's mileage. If the treads are completely worn out, the mileage is likely over 100,000 kilometers. 2. Inspect the vehicle's OBD port for looseness or signs of use: Normally, the OBD port is left untouched, so it tends to accumulate dust over time. If the OBD port appears clean, it could be a sign of odometer tampering, unless the car has undergone repairs.
