What are the precautions when picking up a new car?

[EdenFitz]

Precautions when picking up a new car include: 1. Choose a location with good outdoor lighting to inspect the vehicle surface for any damage, dents, color discrepancies, paint chips, or missing body components; 2. Check if the vehicle's production date exceeds 3 months, with the identification plate typically located on the door frame of the front passenger seat; 3. Verify the accuracy of the VIN and ensure the date information on it matches that on the identification plate; 4. Open the trunk to inspect if all accompanying tools, such as the warning triangle, jack, and spare tire, are complete; 5. Open the engine hood to check the cleanliness inside the engine compartment and pay attention to any signs of oil leakage.
