Test Driving: Ready to Head Out



  • Make sure the tires are properly infalted.
  • Get in and out of the car and open and close the door several times. Make sure everything is comortable. Don’t forget to do the same for the back seat if you are planning to have passengers there.

  • Remove interfering smells. Put the air freshener in the glove compartment. Test-driving includes test-sniffing, so do don’t let any smells disturb you. Sniff the air while driving, sniff the seats and the interior. You are going to breath with this. Put down the information about suspicious smells and inform your mechanic.Vehicle Inspection
