Used card dealer cheated with odo meter tempering through online ad
27-Jan-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
I have purchased a used car from the individual dealer throug Olx.in, the ad claimed it has run 59,000 kms. When I went to service the car to showroom, I was taken aback to know that last service was done last month and it showed 1,75,000 kms in it's service history. Which means dealer cheated me on this very fact, I have no agreements with him, I only have print of Olx ad which shows his name, contact num., and mention of car's mileage. And service history print out. How can I sue the dealer and the original owner? Please advise.
The facts you have mentioned are clearly covered within the ambit of unfair trade practices under the Consumer Protection Act as well as false advertising. You have to necessarily send the vendor a legal notice through an advocate, so as to give him a reasonable opportunity of rectifying his defects. Thereafter, if he fails to address your grievance you can file a consumer case against him in a competent court. The documents you have mentioned are sufficient to raise your claim against him. I hope this clarifies your doubt and gives you a better perspective to proceed further.
Regards,
Advocate Ishita Yadu
