What materials are needed for car pickup?

Generally, only ID card, driver's license, and bank card are required for car pickup. The following is an introduction to precautions for car pickup: When picking up the car, pay attention to the mileage reading on the odometer, usually between 20-80 kilometers. Check if there are any debris in the radiator, if the protective covers and plastic sheets on the front seats are complete, and if there are any stains on the driver's seat and dashboard. When placing an order, pay attention to whether there is a long gap between the delivery date and the pickup date. If the gap is too long, the car might be a display car (placed in the showroom for guest viewing) or a refurbished car (used for test drives). Gifts are not redeemed on the spot. You can ask the 4S store to issue an IOU; also, when picking up the car, make sure to check if all the items you are supposed to have are complete; for example, whether the documents are in the information package, as without the documents, you cannot get the license plate; some car dealers mortgage the vehicle certificate to the bank, and the owner may not receive the certificate when picking up the car. What the owner needs to do is to inspect the car first and not pay if the documents are missing.

Is There Compensation for Replacing the Transmission in a New Car?

The revised Consumer Rights Protection Law stipulates: For household automotive products, if major components such as the engine or transmission exhibit quality defects within 60 days from the date the seller issues the unified motor vehicle sales invoice or within 3,000 kilometers of driving, the seller or manufacturer of the household automobile shall, upon the consumer's request, provide a full vehicle replacement or refund, and compensate for losses in accordance with the law. As one of the three most critical components in a vehicle, the transmission, whether in a new car or not, entitles the owner to manufacturer compensation as long as the issue arises within the warranty period. This is also mandated by the national Three Guarantees policy. The Three Guarantees policy, short for "return, replacement, and repair," is a retail commercial enterprise's commitment to servicing faults caused by product quality issues, not due to improper use or storage by the user. Article 19 of the Three Guarantees policy specifies that during the warranty period of a household automobile, if each repair (including waiting time for spare parts) exceeds five days due to quality issues, the consumer should be provided with a substitute vehicle or reasonable transportation cost compensation. The repair duration is calculated from the time the consumer and the repair facility agree on the repair until its completion. Any repair occupying less than 24 hours is counted as one day. Additionally, if the engine or transmission is replaced twice, or if the same major component of the engine or transmission is replaced twice due to quality issues and still fails to function properly, the consumer has the right to choose a refund.
