At CARS24, the happiness and satisfaction of our customers are at the heart of our services. That's why we have made our pre-delivery inspection thorough, comprehensive, and reliable! 

 

Our pre-delivery inspection for new cars helps identify the issues listed here: 

 

Water Damage: The diverse geography of the Indian subcontinent comes with its set of challenges — frequent rains and flooding. This results in over 1 lakh cars getting severely damaged due to floods every year, which further leads to rusting, malfunctioning electrical components, and related mechanical issues. A pre-delivery inspection helps determine whether the car you're planning to buy is water damaged.

Water Damage

 

Rusting and Corrosion: Just like the rains and the floods, humidity can also result in cars suffering - this includes rusting and corrosion on the body, undercarriage, and metallic components of the car. A pre-delivery inspection can help identify these issues so that you can make an informed decision before buying the used car.

Rusting and Corrosion

 

Faulty Electrical Components: A PDI often helps identify any underlying issues with the wiring, lights, infotainment systems, and other electronic parts of the car.

Mechanical Problems: A faulty engine, brakes, transmission, and suspension can be a nightmare. Thankfully, CARS24's pre-delivery inspection helps identify these issues that can not only impact the performance and safety of your car but also your overall car ownership and driving experience!

Mechanical Problems

 

Missing Parts: Additionally, based on the data provided by JATO Dynamics, our pre-delivery inspection helps check if the used car you're buying has any faulty features or missing components as compared to the original car.

In addition to the aforementioned checks, our used car pre-delivery inspection also covers:

 

- Tampered Odometers: It is estimated that 20-30% of used cars in India have tampered odometers! A PDI can help detect any such malpractices and provide a better idea about the mileage and condition of your car.

- Fabricated Service Records: About 15% of used cars have fabricated service records. With our comprehensive, cost-effective, and reliable pre-delivery inspection, you get the opportunity to know everything about the service, maintenance, and ownership history of your car.

Fabricated Service Records

 

- Undisclosed Accident History: Nearly 40% of used cars have an accidental history that is left undisclosed by the seller. A PDI not only helps you make an informed decision by giving you a clear picture about the condition of the car and its various components, but also puts you in a better position to avoid any unforeseen legal complications.

Undisclosed Accident History

 

- Documentation and Financial Fitness: CARS24's pre-delivery inspection also gives you a clear picture of the documentation and financial fitness of your car. This includes the current RC owner, originality of the RC, existing or pending loans, insurance claims, hypothecation, future demand for your car, challans, pollution under control (PUC), and warranty. 

Documentation and Financial Fitness

 

At the end of our pre-delivery inspection, you will receive a car health report (CHR), in addition to a reliable price estimate that can help you decide if the used car you're planning to buy is worth your investment or not! Check out a sample Car Health Report to see what is covered!
