Under which condition can you state that the odometer reading is "not actual" mileage?

  1. The odometer was replaced without resetting its reading

  2. The odometer malfunctioned and accurate mileage cannot be determined

  3. The vehicle was used in a fleet

  4. The vehicle changed owners more than twice

The correct answer is: The odometer malfunctioned and accurate mileage cannot be determined

When the odometer malfunctions, its reading can no longer accurately represent the mileage of the vehicle. This would result in an "not actual" mileage reading. Option A would not result in inaccurate mileage as the reading would be correctly reset. Option C or D do not directly affect the accuracy of the odometer reading. However, if the vehicle is in a fleet or has changed owners multiple times, it may have been driven more frequently and thus have a higher mileage than displayed on the odometer. This would not necessarily make the odometer reading "not actual" but it may be higher than expected. Therefore, option B is the only correct condition for an "not actual" mileage reading.
