Precautions for new car delivery inspection: Check the car's appearance; check various function buttons of the car; check the production date, etc. The specific precautions and reasons for inspection are as follows: Specific precautions: Check the car's exterior, interior, and paint surface; check various function buttons or systems of the car; check the production date on the car's nameplate; start the vehicle to check the engine; check the car's invoice and other documents; check the car's mileage; check the car's tires and tread; check various fluids or oils. Reasons for inspection: Particular attention should be paid to the car's exterior paint and interior during the inspection to see if there are any scratches, damages, or other issues. Because once the car is taken away, if scratches or damages are discovered later, it will be difficult to communicate with the dealership for repairs or rights protection.

When I get a new car, the first thing I do is spend time carefully inspecting the exterior. I walk around the vehicle to check for scratches, dents, or color discrepancies in the paint, especially under sunlight where issues are more visible. The door gaps should be symmetrical with no excessive spacing, as this indicates assembly quality. The windows and lights must be free of cracks or stains. The tires should be clean, properly inflated, with clear tread patterns. Don’t forget to check underneath the car for any oil leaks to avoid future troubles. If picking up the car on a rainy day, also pay attention to whether the drainage system is functioning smoothly. Experience tells me that bringing a flashlight and a small mirror helps inspect hidden corners, ensuring every detail is perfect before happily driving it home.

After test driving, I like to thoroughly inspect the car. The seats should feel comfortable, and I adjust the height to check for any unusual noises. I press all the buttons to test their functions, such as whether the air conditioning cools quickly, the audio system produces clear sound without distortion, and the navigation system accurately locates. A responsive central control screen is crucial. I connect my phone via Bluetooth to play a song and test the sound quality, and adjust the headlights to the brightest setting to ensure nighttime safety. Don’t forget to check the one-touch window controls, door lock response, and the seatbelt warning sound. After filling up with fuel, I take a short drive to test the air conditioning airflow—poor heating in winter can be quite uncomfortable. When picking up the car, I bring a friend to help inspect it from different angles to avoid discovering issues later and having to return to the dealer.
