Buying a new or used car is an exciting moment—but it also comes with risks if you skip one crucial step: a Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) or professional car inspection. Many buyers finalize the payment without checking the car thoroughly, only to discover hidden issues, missing accessories, electrical faults, or manufacturing defects later. A proper PDI ensures you receive the vehicle exactly as promised—safe, damage-free, and fully functional. At CarVaidya, our certified experts perform a complete car inspection service across India, helping buyers make confident and stress-free decisions.
What Is a Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI)?
A Pre-Delivery Inspection is a systematic check done before taking delivery of a car. Whether the vehicle is new from the showroom or pre-owned from a seller, a PDI helps uncover problems that may not be visible at first glance.
This inspection protects you from:
- Unexpected repairs
- Wrong or swapped parts
- Missing tools or accessories
- Hidden damage
- Mechanical or electrical issues
- Manufacturing defects
A professional PDI ensures you get what you paid for.
Why You Should Not Skip a Car Inspection
Even brand-new cars can arrive with dents, paint mismatches, faulty electronics, or low fluid levels. Similarly, used cars can hide expensive issues like poor suspension, worn-out tyres, weak brakes, or engine problems.
Skipping an inspection may lead to:
- Costly repairs later
- Warranty disputes
- Safety risks
- Reduced resale value
CarVaidya helps you avoid these problems with a detailed and transparent inspection report.
