Sounds like a convienient excuse provided by the seller due to the discrepancy.

The local guy probably managed to wipe it. Dealer (or local guy again) plugged in mileage using SDS. Suspect Dealer "ought" to check VMI reports to see history to attempt to verify mileage claim from owner? Perhaps one of the techs will chime in and confirm the proper procedure dealers are required to follow in these instances.

Makes one wonder what else might be tampered with or covered up. Poorly at that.....

That's an entry level car. There should be LOTS to choose from. I'd look for one with a history you can verify from a seller you can trust.
