† This odometer reading is inconsistent with the odometer history. This could be due to a typographical, clerical, or rounding error and does not necessarily represent an odometer rollback by itself. If we receive additional odometer history that corroborates an odometer rollback, this display may change and that may impact other aspects of this report and the vehicle's qualifications.
