INDIANAPOLIS — Attorney General Todd Rokita has filed a lawsuit against an Indianapolis car dealer who is accused of odometer fraud.

Rokita’s lawsuit alleges that KBB Auto Sales rolled back odometers by a combined total of more than 14 million miles on 216 known vehicles.
“This outright fraud unfairly gives a bad name to the good and honest people working in the used-car business,” Attorney General Rokita said. “Worse than that, these unethical tactics deceive consumers who buy these vehicles with rolled-back odometers. They wind up with higher-mileage cars and trucks with more wear and tear than they thought.”
The lawsuit alleges that the odometer tampering violates the Indiana Deceptive Consumer Sales Act, the Indiana Odometer Act, the Federal Odometer Act and the Motor Vehicle Unfair Practices Act.
