What are some of the Federal Odometer Law requirements?
• Anyone who repairs or replaces an odometer and it no longer registers the same mileage as before its repair or replacement, the person must adjust the odometer to the 0 mark and then place a disclosure sticker on the vehicles left door frame. • Anyone transferring ownership of a motor vehicle must give the new person taking ownership written disclosure: (1) of the vehicles mileage and attest to the accuracy of the mileage figure; or (2) that the mileage is unknown; or (3) the mileage stated on the vehicles odometer is incorrect. Unless the vehicles certificate of title is in possession of a lienholder, this disclosure must be made on the vehicles certificate of title. If a lienholder has the certificate of title in its possession, the person transferring title to the motor vehicle may use a written power of attorney (if allowed by State law) to make the appropriate disclosure. In addition, the new person taking ownership of the vehicle must be given a copy of the disclosure statement
