I have seen a lot of other stange stuff with the cars we rent out. Some people have told me that it is impossible to change the milage on a car with detection, but I'm sure anything is possible if you try hard enough. What do I look for, and how can I legaly proof this? Am I just paranoid? HELP!

Hi JReb,
I may be able to get some positive proof if you can get me the VIN number, especially if it's had any warranty work done before.
Things like this really perturb me, it happens all the time, and leaves consumers with the repercussions.
I'm not sure about all makes, I do know for sure that GM dealerships do not have the tools and equipment to re-set odometers.(Not Legally Anyway)
When one is repaired, it's sent out to an authorized center and they will repair and send back. Many cases they will send a new cluster with 0 miles and inlcude a sticker for the door jamb that is required.
However, It's not surprising with today's technology that this is happening.
Let me know the vin# if you can
