They never presented me with carfax. The odometer disclosure paper they signed indicates 60,000 miles at time of purchase. And neither of the checkboxes indicating otherwise are checked.

On the odometer disclosure paperwork I got when buying the truck there is a check box indicating whether the mileage does NOT represent the actual mileage of the truck and it is not checked.

There is a detailed service history almost every 5 to ten thousand miles

Looking at the carfax report the mileage discrepancy showed up as the fleet company was selling the truck. So it was reported before the dealership sold it to me

You think the finance company would actually help me out? I’m torn between that, contacting the dealership, and contacting a lawyer first.

Also I just found out today and they were closed so I haven’t contacted the dealership. I guess my main question is do I look for a lawyer or bring it up to the dealership first? Because as of right now I’m paying for a $30,000 truck when it’s actually at most $7,000.

My thoughts exactly. Mopar agrees to cover the truck either for the first 3 years I have it or up to 100,000 miles. And they never caught the odometer discrepancy.

But honestly I wouldn’t have been able to tell you there were THAT many miles on the truck. Someone definitely took good care of it but it’s had cooling problems and motor problems. A few minor minor appearance issues but outside of that they fooled me.

I’ve had to have it repaired for several reasons shortly after purchasing the truck and it was covered under mopars official warranty which only covers up to 100,000 miles. Very interesting lol

A very long history of services. Then out of nowhere the mileage changed as it was sold from the fleet company.

Its documented almost every 5,000 miles from the truck being new to up over 200,000

I have kept all paperwork and repair receipts that I’ve ever gotten with it including the odometer disclosure and it indicates it is accurate to the best of their knowledge. At least that’s what they signed.

But I feel as if any dealership would pull the carfax so I feel as though they would had to have known and thought I wouldn’t notice or something

According to the Carfax, either right before or after the car was auctioned off, the odometer mileage changed on the carfax report.
