I bought my MH used and the mileage read about 39,000 miles on it. On the test drive I knew that the speedometer was off but kept my mouth shut. Bought the MH and got an extended warranty as part of the deal. After the deal, I reset the mileage from Kilometers and gained an few extra thousand miles on my warranty.

BUT? if you had say 50K on it when u bought it and the warrenty said 50K and then u reset the odometer and it says 32K and then u have a claim at say 40K would they not question the discrepancy?

And when all the hardcore attempts fail >>> check the manual.

Call Freightliner 24/7 Helpline.
800-FTL-HELP if I remember correctly.

Odometer and Trip Odometer (Note MC means message center)

The MC is equipped with a speedometer and a tachometer. A digital odometer display is located in the speedometer
and a digital trip odometer display is located in the tachometer.Both odometers can display either English or metric values (miles or kilometers). A trip reset switch is located
on the lower right corner of the dash panel. If the switch is depressed for more than 4 seconds, both displays
will cycle between English and metric. At the left sides of the odometer displays, a triangle will point to either an
"m" or a "k," depending on which scale is selected.
To reset the trip odometer, depress the switch for less than 4 seconds. The odometer resets to either 0 miles or
0 kilometers. The display indicates in 1/10 (mile or kilometer) increments, depending on the scale selected.
