How Dishonest Sellers Roll Back Car Mileage

Let’s look at some examples of how real mileage is rolled back on cars imported from Korea

Kia Sportage, 2018

Engine diesel, 1.7 L
Power 141 hp
Transmission robotic (automated)
Drive front-wheel drive
Body Type SUV 5-door
Color white
Mileage, km 44,000 (no mileage in Russia)
Steering Wheel left-hand drive
VIN KNAP6815GJK504750

We received a listing for a Kia Sportage, 2018, for sale in Barnaul dated 25.01.2023.

According to the seller, the car was imported from Korea, which is a good reason to check if the mileage is real or has been rolled back. The listing shows a mileage of 44 000 km as stated by the seller, supported by a photo, and the odometer in the listing displays 44 148 km. Let's investigate if this is accurate.

Copy the VIN number from the listing and go to the Korean car mileage check service. Enter the VIN (KNAP6815GJK504750) on the website and click the "Start Check" button.

We get a result of 71 360 km. This figure shows that as of export from Korea on 08.10.2022, the real mileage was 71,360 km, and after the car was delivered to Russia and listed on classified sites on 25.01.2023, the mileage dropped by almost 30,000 km.

In summary, hiding the real mileage of a car during sale is dishonest and even unethical. This can lead to future problems for the new owner because mileage affects the price, technical condition, and other important factors.

If the actual mileage has been rolled back by almost 30,000 kilometers, this can significantly hide information about the car's true condition and also reduce its market value, as such an incident appears in the vehicle's history.

Therefore, when buying a car, it is important to carefully check its actual mileage and thoroughly assess its condition to avoid misunderstandings and future problems. This is exactly what our Korean car mileage check service is designed for.

Kia Sorento, 2018

Engine diesel, 2.0 L
Power 186 hp
Transmission automatic
Drive 4WD
Body Type SUV 5-door
Color white
Mileage, km 49 838 (no mileage in Russia)
Steering Wheel left-hand drive
VIN KNAPS81ADKA496310

The next vehicle for inspection was a 2018 Kia Sorento from Vladivostok, listed on 26.01.2023.

According to the seller, the car was also imported from Korea with 49,838 km mileage. Let's check if this is true.

Copy the VIN from the ad (KNAPS81ADKA496310), go to the check service and click the "Start Check" button.

We get the result and see that the real mileage was 69,949 km. It becomes clear that the car is not clean. Before the sale, the mileage was rolled back by 20,000 km.

If you want to avoid risks when buying a car from Korea, it is recommended to check the actual mileage using special services; one such service is our service. When buying, you should also analyze the car's appearance, maintenance history, and other factors. It is important to be careful and vigilant to avoid becoming a victim of fraud.

Kia Morning, 2018

Engine petrol, 1.0 L
Power 76 hp
Transmission automatic
Drive front-wheel drive
Body Type hatchback
Color white
Mileage, km 88 000
Steering Wheel left-hand drive
VIN KNAB3513BJT282350

Let's review a 2018 Kia Morning from Krasnodar, listed on 20.02.2023.

The seller stated that the car was imported from Korea with 88,000 km mileage. In the photos in the ad, the odometer shows 88,723 km.

The photos also show a marking plate with the VIN (KNAB3513BJT282350). We copy the VIN and check if the mileage has been tampered with.

The result is disappointing. According to the data, the actual mileage is 135,563 km. Thus, it can be established that at least 47,000 km were rolled back.

This car is still for sale. Therefore, be vigilant and always check the actual mileage before buying a car. For this, we recommend using the special mileage check service.

Hyundai Palisade, 2019

Engine diesel, 2.2 L
Power 202 hp
Transmission automatic transmission
Drive 4WD
Color black
Mileage, km 58 236, no mileage in Russia
Steering Wheel left-hand drive
VIN KMHR281ADKU009983

And again Barnaul, but this time with a 2019 Hyundai Palisade, listed on 22.02.2023.

The seller states that the car is "without mileage in Russia, just cleared customs. Brought from Korea to Vladivostok." According to the ad, the mileage is 58,236 km. In the photos, the odometer shows 58,384 km.

Among the photos in the ad there is a screenshot from the SEP website with the car's VIN (KMHR281ADKU009983). We copy the VIN and start checking the mileage for rollback.

As before, the mileage check showed that the actual mileage is 96,050 km. Calculations show the seller rolled back about 40,000 km.

At the moment, the car is listed for sale on classifieds. Don’t miss the chance to check the mileage before buying, and inspect the car carefully. Even indirect signs can indicate the mileage, but to begin with, we recommend using the special mileage check service.

Mileage Check of Cars Imported from Korea

Why should you check a car before export?

When buying a car from Korea, it is important to make sure of its transparent history. Our VIN check service allows you to find out the real mileage, accident involvement, flood facts, production date and export data. The VIN report is based on official sources and will help you avoid buying a car with rolled-back mileage or hidden damage.

When buying a used car, one of the most important factors is mileage. Unfortunately, some sellers may try to alter the mileage readings to make the car appear more valuable than it actually is. How can you check the real mileage of a car from Korea to ensure an honest deal?

If you are about to buy a car that will be your reliable and safe companion on the road and want to make sure you purchase a car with real, untampered mileage and a clear history, then you are in the right place!

Our service offers a completely free mileage check for cars imported from Korea. We use data provided by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport of South Korea to determine the car’s mileage and check its history for any tampering or rollback.

All you need to do is enter the VIN or chassis number, and we will carry out a full check for you. You’ll get accurate information about the actual mileage at the time of export from Korea. Compare this number with what’s shown on the odometer now to see if the mileage is real or rolled back.

Buying a car with a rolled-back odometer can be risky, as you may end up with a vehicle that has hidden issues like accident damage, engine or transmission problems. The price of a car with tampered mileage can also be inflated compared to its real condition. That’s why it’s so important to know the true mileage before you buy.
