DISO
Hoping to talk about the "wonderful" Dealer Installed Swirl Option!
Has anybody had an issue with a dealership when you ask them not to wash the car no matter how dirty it comes off the truck? I haven't mentioned anything yet since it's not on the truck yet even though it was built early/mid July. I'd rather them not wash at all, especially when I have a 4 hour drive home anyway. I hope they can just do the minimum/basic prep work needed for me to take delivery. My first stop would be to my detailer for a full paint correction, PPF install, and ceramic coating. Second is to my tint guy because no tint = yuck!

every car I buy I always say do not wash it at all. I get a few weird looks or questions like why but I just tell them do not do anything but the inspection and they always followed for me

My dealer asked their GM Rep. All they are required to do is put the car on a lift, check fluid levels and look for leaks. Take it to the gas station(that’s the test drive), fill it with gas and give it to you. Hope you get your car soon!

They followed my instructions to the letter, and I brought her home filthy, but it allowed me to do my own full wash, mechanical and chemical decontamination, paint polish, and graphene coating without having to worry about any additional issues their pre-delivery "cleaning" would have caused.
