2005 GT Convertible - New Car Checklist When Taking Delivery
|
Can't Post

|
Hey Fellow Cruisers: Did a search and couldn't came across a checklist for known bad quality control/missing item checklist when taking delivery of a new 2005 GT convertible. So, that being said, next week when I take delivery of my new GT convertible, what I should I pay extra care and attention on, when inspecting my new GT, before signing the paperwork? I believe I've read about missing glove box retaining straps...anything else besides the obvious paint/fit/finish, ensure all options are included, some gas in tank, all the bells and whistles work (aka: horn, lights, radio, etc) and basic fluid checks? (BTW, do we get a matching 17 inch chrome spare?) Thanks in advance! -MACE- ----------

I was missing the boot to cover the rag top when down. Salesperson noticed as I was looking over car. They got me one the next day. Hope that helps you. ---------- Jack Smith (Smittys PT) Webmaster Colorado Cruiser Club

Hey Jack: Thanks for the reply, that is indeed a key item to check and make sure it is included. I also heard to check I get the proper GT floormats and ensure the operation of the soft-top/power window sequence works properly. Thanks again! -MACE- ----------

Not a full size spare due to the space limitations, so no chrome. My only suggestion is to make sure they go over everything with you, dropping the rear seats, putting on the boot, etc. Only issue I've had so far is a rattle I think is coming from the driver's side rear window after about 500 miles; something obviously you would not find in a delivery check. Only other thing to do is to get that top down and ENJOY! ----------

I also have a rattle in the right side (passenger side) rear 1/4 window when up. It looks a little lower then the drivers side window also. Probably an adjustment. I will take care of it this weekend. ----------
