  • 107,000 miles
Bought a car for 4,000 private party. Guy claimed the car had 107,000 on the odometer and that him and his uncle worked on the car and it had no problems. Drove the car home engine started smoking in motion and car has major leaks. Did a carfax report and the car has 195,000+ miles. Seller also claimed he had the car for multiple years and in reality had it for 4 days. Upon purchase he did a title release form and a duplicate title form and said he would send the title in the mail as soon as he got it.
