Form BDVR-108. Odometer Mileage Statement (Michigan)

The BDVR-108 (Odometer Mileage Statement) is used by the Michigan Department of State to document the odometer mileage on a newly titled or registered vehicle. It must be provided by the current owner, new owner, or other parties with an interest in the vehicle, such as a lessee, when a vehicle is sold or transferred.

The form consists of two parts: an information section and an odometer disclosure section. In the information section, the parties involved are asked to provide basic personal information, such as name, address, phone number, and driver’s license number. The odometer disclosure section requires the parties to indicate the current odometer mileage of the vehicle and to certify the accuracy of the statement.

The strengths of this form include its comprehensive information, accuracy, and documentation. It ensures that the odometer readings are accurate when registering or titling a vehicle. It also protects the parties involved by providing a legal record of the vehicle’s odometer mileage.

The weaknesses of the form include the potential for inaccuracies that may lead to complications while registering or titling the vehicle. The form must be accurately completed and submitted with any additional documents such as the Bill of Sale, Buyer’s Order, or Michigan Motor Vehicle Liability Insurance Policy information.

Overall, the BDVR-108 is a necessary and important form for titling or registering a vehicle in Michigan. It provides an accurate record of the vehicle’s odometer mileage and ensures that the parties involved are protected in the event of any discrepancies. It is an important form for all parties involved and must be made available when titling or transferring ownership of the vehicle.
