The U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), through its Office of Odometer Fraud Investigation (OFI), offers a grant for state enforcement agencies. This initiative supports investigations into odometer fraud, a serious crime and consumer issue. Odometer tampering costs American car buyers approximately one billion dollars annually. The high profitability of this offense, fueled by new car prices and demand for late-model, low-mileage used vehicles, necessitates robust enforcement. This grant seeks to strengthen state capabilities in prosecuting this widespread fraud, thereby safeguarding consumers from substantial financial losses and maintaining integrity in the used car market.
