The state of Wisconsin revoked the motor vehicle dealer license for Merrywood Investments LLC, located at 3100 N 1st St, Milwaukee, for title and odometer fraud.

The order, issued by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV), determined that Merrywood Investments violated state law when they rolled back odometers on vehicles and falsified title documents when selling vehicles to customers.

Due to the nature of the violations, the department took action to immediately revoke the license of Merrywood Investments effective August 23, 2022. The decision to revoke the license was upheld by a WisDOT hearing on September 26, 2022. Dealers are given 30 days to appeal a revocation to the state Division of Hearing and Appeals. Merrywood Investments did not appeal, and the decision is final.

WisDOT’s Dealer and Agent Section licenses, regulates and resolves disputes about dealership sales and warranty repairs. It also investigates complaints about odometer tampering and title fraud involving dealerships and private sellers.
