Recital 23
Recital 23
(23) Odometer fraud is considered to affect between 5% and 12% of used carsdomestic used cars sales and between 30% and 40% of cross border sales, resulting in a very important cost to society of several billions Euros yearly and in an incorrect evaluation of a roadworthiness condition of a vehicle. With a view to combat odometer fraud, the recording of mileage in the roadworthiness certificate combined with the obligation to present the certificate of the previous test would facilitate the detection of tampering or manipulation of the odometer. Odometer fraud should also be more systematically considered as an offence liable to a penalty. Member States should take all necessary measures to ensure the accuracy of the odometer reading during the entire lifetime of a vehicle. This can be done by gathering in a mileage registration database information on the vehicle's mileage that is already being recorded by the various actors of the automobile sector, such as official dealers, repairers, or testing centres.
