1. Pre-delivery Inspection SA09719
A: GENERAL SA09719G23
The purposes of the pre-delivery inspection (PDI) are as follows.
- Remove the additional parts used for ensuring the vehicle quality during transportation and restore the vehicle to its normal state.
- Check if the vehicle before delivery is in a normal state.
- Check for any damage or missing parts that may have taken place during transportation or storage.
- Make sure to provide a complete vehicle to the customer.
Because of the above reasons, all dealerships
must always carry out the PDIs before delivering a
vehicle.
In addition, all franchised shops and PDI centers
must check the status of every vehicle received to
identify who is responsible for any possible
defects.
