Odometer inspections and checks

How can you verify the mileage is correct on a car imported from Japan or Singapore? Look for the AA Odometer Passed sticker on the front windscreen.

We conduct odometer inspections on second hand cars before they leave the port with our partner Japan Export Vehicle Inspection Center (JEVIC), Japan's largest odometer certification company.

This includes:

Removing and inspecting the odometer for any signs or evidence of tampering
Examining all available service records to ensure they match the car's stated odometer reading
Checking the car's history and comparing it to all other information about the car
Checking the car's overall condition for signs of wear inconsistent with the odometer reading

When we're 100% satisfied, we give the car the AA/JEVIC Odometer Passed stamp of approval.

Always look for the AA/JEVIC Odometer Passed Sticker and accompanying authorising certificate – which are your assurance of an accurate odometer reading.
