The flashlight advice saved my bacon. Pickup my Tesla in a warehouse so the flashlight revealed several scratches…couldn’t have seen them otherwise. I did not accept delivery and Tesla brought out another car…took 2 hrs to get it, have it cleaned/detailed. Wheww you saved me. Thanks!

“Most people that have flawless deliveries don’t mention it online” that statement alone has given me so much peace of mind! I see about 100+ Teslas a day, they can’t be that terrible.

Just want to extend you Jay, a hearty thank you… I saw one of your earlier videos on this subject and when I went to pick up my TM3, I recorded it. First full circle around the car was out of excitement… then I remembered I needed to slow down and actually ** look/record** the car…. I’m glad I did! … turned out the drivers window was misaligned… so much so I could see inside the car… long story short I had to bring it back and they acted like they were gonna blame it on the window being tinted… I told them, uh un, I recorded it the first day I picked it up… lol… they fixed it… I wouldn’t have known to do that had I not seen your video… thanks again 😎🍻

Some of your
Points are a bit too much. You also have warranty and many of the things you described wont even be fixed on the spot.

Check paint, that is very important. As you don’t want to have a discussion around scratched or chips afterwards.

Last year we picked up a Model Y and everything went really well. The biggest issue for first time owners is learning how everything works at the dealer. For example. opening the glove box, knowing where to place the key card to start the car, how to work the wipers, etc. That was the most stressful part of the pickup day by far. We are picking up another one because of the 0.99% deal and have full confidence that the delivery day will go well but I watched to refresh my memory in what to look for.

Getting overwhelmed by the check list. It’s ridiculous how you have to go through all of these, especially at the price point!

Great video. When I bought a new model 3 in 2019, I had to reject 4 new cars due to flaws. I went to buy my second tesla, a new 2023 model Y in black recently, but it had paint flaws, and scratches. They had to send it off to a body shop. Nice. They thought I was going to be like most people and just jump in and leave. I guess it's my job as the customer to be quality control.

dude! getting my new tesla 3 highland this week and i'm bringing this video for a step by step inspection. this video adds lots of value and i appreciate the thoroughness.... great work

My Tesla Model 3 arrives beggining of next month, I'm going to do a dry-run of this checklist in a test-drive to get used to it and don't forget anything on the delivery day. Thank you!

[IamYt]

I mean, absolutely check exterior. But mirrors, qi charging etc... If you find an issue after delivery just make a mobile service appointment in your app and have Tesla fix it while you're at work or whatever

[hrhkee]

Your thoroughness is amazing and warrants my thumbs up and subscriptions. Thank you for not sounding like the others. Great job.

Just took delivery yesterday in NY.. 0 problems. My model 3 was perfect.

@JremiahJones -
Thanks to your video and the checklist you have attached, I was able to save the trouble down the line and rejected the delivery today due to Alignment issues on doors and frunk in the 2024 Model Y Long Range. Thank you so much, keep up the good work!! 🤝

I just ordered the 2024 model 3 and am so glad YouTube put this video on my Home Screen. I currently have a 2018 Model 3 which did not have any issues at delivery. I am hoping the delivery of this one in April or May will go as well as my 2018 delivery. Thanks so much for this video and the check list. Wish I would have seen this video before ordering, I would have used your referral code

Just picked up my highland yesterday and there was a small dead panel in the ambient light and several scratches in the paint! So glad I have been watching all of these helpful videos and knew to look for smaller defects. They made me a service appointment right away.

[rahrjiyanin]

When my car was delivered, it had few scratches, had uneven panels, wheel damage. I refused to take it home, they created a ticket & promised it would be fixed in 2-3 days. After waiting a few weeks for it, all those damages were fixed, but the body shop had added a huge dent on the hood and some type of glue on the passenger side. I was very upset that they had the thought of expecting me to take this car home. I complained to the manager. They kept the car for another few weeks, but gave me a voucher for $500 to spend on accessories plus they had given me a voucher for Uber while they had my car in service. After a month the window fell off as I drove, but a technician came to my home & replaced it free of charge. I think overall, Tesla has good service.

Super helpful video to remind you of things you may forget during the excitement of a delivery. Appreciate the checklist as well. Thank you!

Picked my X up yesterday. No issues. Would love to see this level of criticism on GM cars…

[jasongirard]

Excellent video and explanation of what to check. This is equally useful to all car purchases, not just Tesla. I did not have this video resource when I bought my 2023 M3P but the delivery was flawless (I drove 4 hours to pick up an inventory car that had the color spec I wanted, trading in the car I drove to the Service Center - needless to say, I had a lot on the line for everything to work out). Heck, the SC even had all the delivery cars sync'd up to play a concert together for their new owners - this was an amazing experience.
I'm taking delivery of a 2024 M3P in a few days and will be much more thorough inspecting the car this time. The main issues I've seen from YT delivery videos have been creaky seats, paint imperfections, and scraping noise coming from the wheels (supposedly from the aero covers) so those things are on my priority list to check.
Maybe helpful to mention in your video to check for the presence of the USB sentry drive in the glove box and verify video is being captured. Also, check for excess wind/road noise and rattles when driving on various road surfaces.
Along with the insurance, make sure to remove/deactivate a toll tag if you have one and activate on the new car.
