Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram
Before you bring your trade-in vehicle to our dealership, there are three steps you should take. At Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR), we’re written up a checklist for our customers in and around Aiken, Graniteville, and North Augusta, SC. Read on to learn more!
At the very top of your vehicle trade-in checklist should be scheduling service. You’ll want your vehicle to be as close to its factory settings as possible. With the proper kind of servicing, you can rejuvenate your vehicle into fighting shape. Although it may seem simple, an oil change, tire rotation, and fluids refill will mean quite a lot during the final inspection, when you bring your trade-in to the dealer.
Along with obtaining service, repairs are also extremely important to have done before trading in a vehicle. If any part of your model isn’t working at optimal condition, bring it into our service center. Our team of talented expert technicians will take a look at it and conduct the necessary repairs.
To be sure that you get the full amount for your trade-in, every part of the vehicle must be in good working condition. So, if you’ve been having issues with the transmission, the engine, or the battery, it’s better to have it taken care of now instead of showing up with anything left unresolved.
After you’ve made certain your trade-in is in its top condition, it’s time to make the interior and exterior reflect that as well. Being clean actually adds to the value of a vehicle, which is in your best interest.
So, make sure you vacuum the inside of the cabin. Run the vacuum over the upholstery and the carpet a few times to make sure it picks up every little piece of debris. Don’t forget to do a once-over in the trunk too. Also, remove any car mats and clean them.
You’ll also want to concentrate on the exterior. Since that’ll be the first thing we see when you bring in your car for trade-in, a good first impression is the best route to take. Invest in exterior detailing shortly before your trade-in date so that your model is in pristine condition. The value this adds to your trade-in is worth the extra investment you put into it.
The last item on your checklist should be documents as well as keys, key fobs, and other important items. You’ll need the title and the registration, your driver’s license, your offer letter, and any other explicitly stated papers. These will help you expedite the process of trading in your vehicle at the dealership.
Bringing along all sets of keys is important as well. You may be penalized, if your records show that two sets of keys or fobs were originally issued and you give them only one.
Now that our customers in and around Aiken, Graniteville, and North Augusta, South Carolina, know about this trade-in checklist, it’s time to act. Trade in your vehicle with us at Miracle CDJR. Contact our team today, if you have any questions!
