Why Is PDI Essential?

Ensures No damages

Pre Delivery Inspection

A vehicle travels a very long distance before reaching you. It is often transported via trucks and ships, etc. During this long transportation, the vehicle may incur minor damages such as dents, scratches, etc. A PDI ensures that your vehicle is free of such damages.

 Detects Mechanical issues

Though it is very rare for a brand-new vehicle to get mechanical issues, however, it may sometimes slip through the quality checks. A PDI gives you an opportunity to check that the engine, brakes, suspension and other mechanical components are properly functional to avoid any hassle later on.

Verify Features & Accessories

Pre Delivery Inspection

Todays vehicles are packed with numerous features and tech. A PDI helps you to verify that everything from the infotainment system to safety features like airbags and parking sensors are functioning as promised. Also, it is the perfect time to ensure that all the add-on accessories are there, which youve opted for.

Prevent post-delivery hassle

Imagine going on a long drive in your vehicle and discovering issues and warning lights that may cause unnecessary stress. However, a thorough PDI ensures that these issues are identified before delivery.

A PDI gives you confidence that your vehicle is ready to roar on the roads. It is key to ensure that your vehicle is as flawless as you see it. So, before you take the vehicle and hit the road, take a moment to inspect because your first drive should be all thrill, not misery.
