Something is hinky. A 2016 with only 4,000 or 14,000 miles doesn’t seem right. As one person said to check the gas and brake pedals, but besides the brakes and brake pads, check to see if those are the original tires. Tires would not need to be replaced for only 14,000 or 4,000 miles. Also check the belts and hoses for excessive wear. Note that one of the service entries stated the battery was replaced?

Not an expert but my years of experience tells me something is not kosher.
Have a registered mechanic check it out. Preferably one who has experience with these cars. just my take

Not necessarily. My husband put only 11k miles on a 2017 Civic, and I’ve maybe put 10 or 12k miles on my ‘99 4Runner in the past five years.

Always just assume that the higher value is accurate for safety and value’s sake.

Who knows, though? Maybe the owner was a little old lady who went to church and to the grocer, like my ex’s nana. She had an ‘86 Cadillac with maybe 10k miles.
