CHECK OVER/THIS VEHICLE IS NEW TO US AND WILL NEED TO BE CHECKED IN PROPERLY UPON ARRIVAL. SETTING APPOINTMENT FOR THURSDAY/ WILL DROP WEDNESDAY. NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AT THIS TIME
TECHNICIAN WILL USE THE LATEST DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT TO PINPOINT THE CAUSE OF THE FAULT(S) AND AN ESTIMATE FOR REPAIRS WILL BE PROVIDED. UPON COMPLETION OF THE REPAIRS THE TECHNICIAN WILL VERIFY THE REPAIR WITH A TEST DRIVE. THIS TEST DRIVE LIKELY WILL NOT RUN THE MONITORS REQUIRED FOR A SMOG TEST. IF THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE SMOGGED, DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR 50-100 MILES AND RETURN TO VERIFY THE MONITORS HAVE PASSED BEFORE THE SMOG TEST. THERE ARE SOME CODES AND ISSUES THAT CAN ARISE THAT WILL BLOCK THE COMPUTER FROM CHECKING ALL COMPONENTS. THIS MEANS THAT AFTER REPAIRS A NEW CODE MAY ARISE AND WOULD REQUIRE A DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. INSPECTION FEE WILL BE APPLIED TO THE REPAIR UPON APPROVAL IN THE SAME VISIT.
The customer requests we check and verify what the Acura dealer told the customer the car needed.
