I recently moved to Florida and haven't got my stuff all set up yet so I decided to take my 03' GMC truck down to the local GM dealer to get the oil changed. I paid the bill and all was well untill I was kinda shopping for a different rig and when the appraisal guy ran their standard Carfax check, low and behold an alert showed odometer tampering. The GM service writer had made a typo while entering info for a simple oil change which showed about 30,000 less miles than is on the vehicle. I went back and complained and a guy said he would straighten it out and call me. Its been two weeks and no call. I think I'll go bug him again. Note to self..."Check your invoice after any work to make sure all the info is correct before you pay". The fellow that turned up the discrepancy said he finds lots of this sort of thing and the worst is the independant shops like those associated with tire stores that also do mechanical work. Be careful out there.
