Car defect check before delivery

Our car defect check before delivery details are optimized to catch dealer and factory mistakes.

• Paint & Body Surface Defects – Check for scratches, chips, buffer holograms, fish eyes, orange peel variance, and edge chipping on doors/ hood/ tailgate.

• Panel Alignment & Fitment – Measure gap uniformity (0.5mm tolerance), flushness between adjacent panels, and door drop (closure effort and sound).

• Interior & Trim Defects – Inspect for loose panels, scratched plastic, torn upholstery, mismatched stitching, and missing clips or covers.

• Electrical & Infotainment Glitches – Test all switches, screen dead pixels, speaker function, navigation lock time, and Bluetooth pairing stability.

• Delivery Kit & Accessory Completeness – Verify all keys, manuals, tool kit, jack, triangle, first-aid kit, and dealer-promised accessories (mats, mudflaps, etc.).

Your final report includes a ‘Defect Severity Matrix’ and a script for dealer negotiation.

• Never Accept a Damaged Car – Our services catch transit damage, incomplete dealer prep, or factory defects that would otherwise become your problem after delivery.

• Force Dealer Correction Before Payment – Use our defect list to demand free repairs, part replacements, or a different vehicle before you sign the delivery form or pay the balance.

• No Technical Knowledge Required – We handle the entire car defect check before delivery. You receive a simple “Red Flag” list plus a sentence-by-sentence guide on what to say to the sales manager.

• Essential for First-Time & Non-Attentive Buyers – Most buyers miss subtle defects in the excitement of delivery. Our inspectors stay calm and methodical to protect you.

• Fast & Dealer-Friendly Process – Complete defect check in 60 minutes. We work professionally, not confrontationally. Digital report within 8 hours, often before you leave the showroom.
