Orange California Odometer Statement is a legal document used in the state of California to disclose the mileage of a vehicle during a transfer of ownership. This statement is required by law to protect buyers from odometer tampering and fraud. The odometer statement is an important part of the vehicle's title and registration process. The Orange California Odometer Statement contains information about the vehicle's mileage, including the current reading, the date of the reading, and any discrepancies or alterations that may be present. It provides a clear record of the vehicle's actual miles, ensuring that potential buyers are aware of the accurate mileage before purchasing the vehicle. In Orange California, there are two types of Odometer Statements: the Actual Mileage Odometer Statement and the Not Actual Mileage Odometer Statement. 1. Actual Mileage Odometer Statement: This type of statement is used when the odometer reading accurately reflects the total mileage of the vehicle. It certifies that the mileage displayed on the odometer is the actual mileage of the vehicle. 2. Not Actual Mileage Odometer Statement: This type of statement is used when the odometer reading does not accurately reflect the total mileage of the vehicle. It is used in specific situations, such as when the odometer has been replaced, repaired, or has malfunctioned. The statement will provide an explanation of why the reading is not accurate. The Orange California Odometer Statement is typically completed by the seller (or dealer) of the vehicle. Both parties, the buyer and the seller, must sign the statement to acknowledge the accuracy of the provided information. It is essential to include the Orange California Odometer Statement when transferring the title of a vehicle to comply with state regulations and to protect both the buyer and seller from potential legal issues related to odometer fraud.
