Bought an atv and the guy lied to me about the year
Yep, just like it says i bought a grizzly 550 from this guy off craigslist. He sold it to me as a 2011 come to find out its only a 2009 I tried calling him, no answer. Has anyone ever heard of this happening and is there anything i can do about it?
I would appreciate any help.
thanks

Bill of sale, and a dealership paperwork where he bought it used from. However, the vin numbers on the paperwork do not match the atv

Know it's a little late,but since the vin # and year model on the paper work doesn't match the machine,I'd check to see first if the machine is listed as stolen. Could end up being a police matter and might be hard getting your $ back from a guy that sounds like he's a good con artist. Again this is too late on this one,but never buy a machine without a title or an mso that you can apply for a title with. Had a few people come into the shop that had let this happen to them. Titles on orv started in the mid 80's in most states. Started in 1985-1986 down here in Texas.

The machine is not stolen, i already looked into this. everything comes up clear. The machine has really low miles and hours and came with a bunch of addition accessories so it was all a really good deal the only issue is that the two vins dont match up and he lied on the paper work of the year. So not sure how this would hold up in court due to everything.

In Canada we call title a "Ownership" without one it illegal to be caught riding one on anything but private property.
Without a ownership you can't even put insurance on the ATV.
Have the Police run the true frame serial numbers to see if its has been reported stolen.
