2002 Chevy Silverado how can you change the instrument cluster and leave odometer reading the same?
you will have to take it to a dealer to get the new one reflashed to your mileage. should cost a few hundred or less to get it done.
Does the mileage stay the same if you change an instrument cluster on 1999 town and country or will it need to be reset by a dealer?
The mileage is stored in the BCM not the cluster, so you can replace the cluster without changing the odometer reading.
How can you fix the odometer on a 1994 Nissan Bluebird ARX when the speedometer is working?
Sorry, it can't be done. You have to change the whole unit because the odometer is tamperproof. Check with your Nissan dealer to see what your options are.
If a dealer sells a car as new but it has 5500 miles on it is that a breach of contract?
Not if it shows 5500 on the odometer which makes it obvious that the car was a demo model or previously owned. If the odometer was reset to zero, than not only was that a breach of contract, it was an illegal act.
Is it against the law for a dealer to sell a used car if the odometer does not work?
Depends on the state where the car is being sold. It is against the law to sell a vehicle in most states without notifying the buyer in writing that the odometer does not work and the mileage is unverifiable. It is also illegal in some states to even sell a vehicle with an inoperable odometer.
Can the dealer change the agreement after signing the contract?
It seems like that would be illegal, you wouldn't be allowed to change the agreement, so I don't think the dealer could. If it's not illegal, its very unethical. Check your dealership at the Better Business Bureau, you can also file a complaint there.
Your 1989 320i BMW is reading inspection on your dashboard what does this mean?
Change the oil... at the dealer they have a device to turn this light off.
What could be the reason my speed odometer stopped working on my 2004 Tahoe?
There has been either a TSB or recall on this. Happened to my 04. I had extended warranty and fixed for nothing. Call your dealer. My speedo was very erratic, usually reading 30-80 MPH higher than actual or reading 0.
I am financing a used car and found out the odometer has been turned back what are your rights in NJ?
First, how do you know it has been changed? Do you have proof? If so, go to the dealer you bought if from and ask for an explanation. Be polite. Yelling and making threats will not help you. If they are unwilling to listen to your complaint you will have to take them to court for a refund. You will need proof that they modified the odometer reading.
Is it illegal to invest in a drug dealer?
No.
Where can you get an odometer for a 1991 Chevy 4x4?
from a breaker's yard, authorized dealer or possibly even Ebay.
Can you change an Infiniti G35 odometer from kilometers to miles?
I inquired about the conversion of miles to KM on my 2008 G35 and was told it was not a programmable option. The dealer offered to do it for $1800 as it required changing out the entire display module.
