Looks like you should have looked at Carfax before, not after the purchase.

If you can prove the seller knew there were more miles than this on the vehicle, and yet still signed the odometer disclosure statement saying it had 41k, then the purchase is not valid and the seller owes you your money back.

Otherwise you're stuck with the car. So do you have any proof?
