Legal Question in Consumer Law in Pennsylvania

Our business, located in Pennsylvania, purchased a 2001 379 Peterbilt tractor from a dealer in Canada. He lied about the mileage on the truck, by over 1 million miles. We would have never even considered buying this truck had we known there were this many miles on it; let alone pay what we did for the truck. Is there any way to get any money back from the dealer? He advertised and wrote a mileage on the bill of sale that is no where near what the truck has on it. This will be the fifth site that I have contacted about this matter; no one will even reply. I would be happy if just one person would respond to let us know if we should pursue this issue.

If you bought the vehicle in Canada, then you would need to ask a canadian attorney about this issue. It wouldn't make sense to sue the dealer here in the US.

If this were a US case, sure, its a fraud claim, no doubt about it.
