Vehicle Inspection Process and Preparation Checklist

This guide outlines the vehicle inspection process for individuals nearing the end of their Red Carpet Lease. It begins by detailing the necessary preparations, such as cleaning the vehicle and removing loose items, particularly from the trunk, to facilitate a thorough inspection. Upon arrival, inspectors will identify themselves and request the vehicle keys. The inspection typically lasts about 30 minutes, during which both the interior and exterior, as well as various components and electronic systems, will be evaluated. After the inspection, a Vehicle Condition Report will be provided, highlighting any identified Excess Wear and Use. The guide emphasizes the importance of reviewing this report to understand the vehicle's condition and to make any necessary repairs before lease return. It also explains how to schedule the inspection, which should occur approximately 60 days before the lease ends, and suggests conducting a self-inspection beforehand to identify potential issues. Lastly, it lists items to gather for the inspection.
