ARLINGTON, Wis. (WMTV) – A Columbia Co. automotive wholesaler lost its license after allegedly rolling back the odometers on vehicles it purchased, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation reported Friday.
The Arlington-based company, Motorworks LLC, actually had its license revoked on May 11, the WisDOT explained; however, the agency waited until the business’ thirty-day appeal window had expired to issue the public statement.
According to WisDOT, Motorworks LLC would buy high-mileage vehicles, then roll back their odometers and change their vehicle titles. Additionally, despite being a wholesaler, they were allegedly selling vehicles to retail customers without a license.
The agency listed seven federal and state laws and codes that Motorworks LLC is accused of violating. The investigation was conducted by WisDOT’s Dealer and Agent Section.
