Delivery - what to look for?

[SebastienT]

I am taking delivery of my 2024 model
s this coming monday. Any tips on what I should pay attention to prior to accepting delivery?

I'd concentrate on making sure the body, paint, and glass are OK. Check the body for misaligned panels and trim. Make sure the paint is on every surface it is supposed to be on, and is OK for you. Both the body and the paint may not be perfect, and this is normal. It should be good enough. Make sure the glass is not optically distorted in a bothersome way on front, side, and rear glass. Check the upholstery for visible defects. Check the rest randomly, as anything else should be easily fixed after purchase.

Thank you. I appreciate your input!

Look for seat wrinkles as well

Annnnd...always look under the car!

There is a full checklist here on TMC if you search for it.

Look for the nearest freeway on ramp and floor it. Enjoy!
