Complaint Description: i bought a 1996 mitsubishi eclipse and on the way home it broke down completly. i researched the car and found evidence that the odometer has either been disconected or rolled back. the reason that i say this is because on www.carfax.com it reports that in 2001 when this person purchased this car it had 51,717 miles on it. then it says that over a year later in 2002 that the car reported 51,719 miles on it. what are some other things i can do to make more proof of this happening. what can i get out of the seller if this is the case... all my money back? more than my money back? thank you for your help, i also copied and pasted the carfax page with the odometer readings. get back to me asap. thank you good news! carfax search results on this 1996 mitsubishi eclipse gst (4a3ak54f7te265707) did not uncover a potential odometer rollback. carfax analyzed this vehicle's reported odometer readings to determine if any reading is less than a previously reported reading. date reported: odometer reading: 06/10/1996 475 reported on 05/08/1996 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 07/09/1998 16,989 reported on 06/25/1998 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 08/10/1999 32,576 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10/16/2000 33,596 reported on 10/26/1999 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/14/2001 51,717 reported on 07/23/2001 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/04/2002 51,719 reported on 12/04/2002 .
