What is the name of your state? FL
I just bought a 1993 Ford Thunderbird with 16,500 miles on it. The dealer told me the car is exempt from odometer disclosure, because it is over 10 years old. I told him I want the mileage stated in the odometer disclosure form, because it is the reason why I buy the car and why I pay the negotiated price for it. He stated the 16,500 miles in the statement and I thought everything is fine, including a clean carfax until the problems started and a mechanic told me the car has easily over 100K miles.
My question is now if the odometer disclosure form I have in my hands is good or not, because cars over 10 years are exempt? I see it as part of the contract and misrepresentation of the actual mileage.
