This vehicle is 2 years old, with a relatively short usage period and an average annual mileage of 14,100 kilometers. It is used with normal family daily frequency and has never been transferred to another owner, making it a good first-hand car. The exterior is in excellent condition, with a glossy paint finish but possibly some minor marks. The interior is clean and tidy, with minor signs of use. The overall body frame is intact and without any abnormalities. The fluids are normal, and the powertrain runs smoothly without any issues.
During the stationary steering test, the technician will check the smoothness of the steering wheel from full left to full right, looking for any unusual noises from the steering gear; they will also inspect the hydraulic power steering pump (if present) and the seals of the steering column for any hydraulic fluid leakage.
We maintain an absolute skeptical attitude. In addition to regular visual inspections, we focus on checking for sediment accumulation around the sunroof drainage channels and look for water stains under the A-pillar trim and front floor mats. This is the only effective physical evidence to determine if the sunroof drainage holes are blocked, leading to hidden leaks.
This is a common issue with sea transport. If the vehicle is parked at a humid dock, the EPB can easily rust to the brake disc. In addition to testing its release before shipping, we try to ask dock workers to secure the wheels with chocks instead of fully engaging the electronic parking brake.
