(625 ILCS 5/4-105.1) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 4-105.1)
Sec. 4-105.1. Offenses relating to deletion or
falsification of information on title document. (a) It is a
violation of this Code for a person to knowingly, with the
intent to defraud, surrender or cause to be surrendered any
manufacturer's statement of origin, certificate of title,
salvage certificate, junking certificate, or other title
document, in exchange for a certificate of title or other
title document of this State or of any other State or foreign
jurisdiction which results in or attempts to result in:
1. The deletion of the words "S.V.", "REBUILT" or
similar notation.
2. The falsification of an odometer reading; or
3. The alteration or deletion of any other information
required to be contained on such certificate of title or any
other title document of any State or foreign jurisdiction.
(b) Presumptions. A title surrendered to another
jurisdiction that is subsequently submitted to any person,
corporation, or other legal entity, residing or doing
business within Illinois, the following presumption shall
apply; if the title document fails to contain all of the
previous information required by Illinois law, it shall be
presumed to have been done so knowingly.
It shall be a rebuttable presumption that any title
document surrendered or submitted with a false odometer
reading shall be presumed to have been done so knowingly.
(c) Sentence. A person convicted of a violation of this
Section shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. A person
convicted of violating this Section a second or subsequent
time, within 5 years of any prior convictions under this
Section, shall be guilty of a Class 3 4 felony.
