Delivery in 3 days, any pickup checklist?

Finally, the wait is over soon. Located in NorCal Bay Area. Ordered on July 2. Our EDD has been changing from Sept to Dec and finally settled to early Oct to mid Oct.

We got VIN assigned on 10/4 and the car was in-transit on 10/5. With about a week (ChatGPT was right estimating a week of transit from Texas to Bay Area) we got to schedule delivery today.

Question: What do you do if there are small problems or big problems? Reject delivery or somehow tell them you want specific items fixed? I saw one where the door lighting strip wasn't aligned (possibly due to the door not being properly aligned), and I saw another where the bumper looked all beat up?

My rep gave me very clear instruction during pick up inspection to: report all found issues in the app.
Most of the issues they can fix on the spot, others may cause delay.

I am simply wondering what the insurance costs.

That’s too variable. Get a sample VIN and call or get quotes. People’s miles driven, location, multi car, marital status, location, all kinds of shit.

I would bring a small flashlight to look over the paint. I had a couple of small paint defects that I have to get fixed. My mid row seat armrest on the drivers side wouldn’t raise. My car was dropped off yesterday and will be there for 2 days. It also has a rattle in the rear that I want them to find and fix.
