This bulletin contains information on the following steps which make up the Retail Car Delivery Process.
• Vehicle inspection procedure (Truck Delivery)
• Pre-Delivery Service (PDS)
• Vehicle in stock maintenance
• Vehicle Delivery (Customer Delivery)
New car delivery is a crucial step in the Retail Car Delivery Process. At this point the buying experience
turns into a long-term relationship. It is the retailer’s responsibility to ensure that the car and the
experience are as enjoyable and informative as possible.
Stock Maintenance is a key element in the overall process. It is important to keep your vehicle
inventory maintained and fresh.
The following outlines the Retail Car Delivery Process (RCDP). The basic structure of the RCDP is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Truck Delivery Vehicle Inspection
Stock Maintenance - proper care and maintenance of vehicles in retailer inventory
PDS - PDS Mechanical and PDS Detail*
Delivery Agenda process with customer
Celebrate delivery of vehicle with customer and sales professional
* Do NOT wax, polish and/or apply any surface treatments to new vehicles.

processes are geared towards assuring high-quality retail delivery and completely satisfied customers.

to your facility. Guidance documents with instructions as to the submission and handling of claims can

TIME LIMITS
• Rail claims – 4 months from date of delivery to dealer.
• Truck claims – 2 months from date of delivery.
INSPECTION – DAYTIME DELIVERIES
For daytime deliveries (when dealers are open for business), a dealer representative must inspect
vehicles for transport damage immediately upon receipt (and before the driver departs). Damages must
be coded on the trucker’s delivery receipt when he signs it. All three codes must be noted for each
damaged area (codes are listed later in this section or by calling 888-373-0330 option 2):
Code damage area
Code vehicle damage code (type of damage)
Code severity of damage

Service Manager Bulletin 17-2018
INSPECTION – NIGHT DROPS
For night drops, the dealer must inspect the vehicle on the first open business day and advise the carrier
within 48 hours from the date and time of delivery – no exceptions. You must provide:
•
•
•
•
VIN
Load number (from Hansen’s delivery receipt)
Description of damage.
All three codes for each of the damages found.
For Hansen’s – Complete Hansen’s Afterhours form and fax to (416) 293-1604 or email it to
[email protected]
Note: Refer to the Warranty Administration Manual for complete details
Item 2 – Stock Maintenance – This checklist describes activities that must be performed every 30 days
in order to keep the car in the freshest possible condition. PDS - Final/Detail should be done just prior
to delivery to the final customer.
In VIDA - Profile the vehicle:

Print out checklist
Item 3 – PDS, Pre-Delivery Service – A process to ultimately deliver a better quality product to the end
user.
We suggest that the “technician” take ownership of the PDS to make certain the vehicle is being
inspected correctly. The technician will be responsible for the entire vehicle, the detail person
responsible for the appearance of the vehicle and the salesperson is responsible for the customer
experience. PDS should not be looked at as a fill-in job in the shop but as the first impression our
customer has when he or she purchases a Volvo.
Also note that the PDS Checklist must be signed by the Technician, Detail Person and the Salesperson
responsible for that vehicle. This will ensure that the work performed and the cleanliness of the vehicle
meet the needs and expectations of the Volvo owner. As one of the last people in the Retail Store to hand
off the new Volvo to its owner, the Salesperson must ensure the integrity of the product and make certain
all is in working order. The PDS Checklist must be attached to the R.O. and retained in the vehicle file.
The PDS Checklist must be signed by the Technician, Detail Person and
Salesperson responsible for that vehicle.
Item 4 – Customer Delivery – Delivery preparation is the first opportunity to create customer
satisfaction and customer loyalty. The objective is to deliver a new Volvo that is 100% perfect.
Reset service reminder light. It is important the customer gets a full cycle of 10,000 miles/
16,000 km or 1 year from the delivery date before the reminder light illuminates.

Delivery Phases:
ü Vehicle Preparation
ü Stage the Car
ü Demonstration of Features
ü Documentation/Owner’s Information Materials*
ü Tour Facility
ü Leather Care Wipes (for light interior cars)
* Owner’s Manual, Warranty Manual, On Call Guide, Leather Care Wipes, SiriusXM Guide and other
Owner’s Information.
The sales consultant is responsible for making the delivery of a new Volvo a well planned, memorable
event. Time and special attention must be given to the new owner, effectively communicating the
Retailer’s commitment to the customer’s complete satisfaction.
PRE-DELIVERY SERVICE (PDS) REIMBURSEMENT PROCEDURES
PDS will be paid at the time of wholesale to the wholesaling retailer. Payment will appear on the
Weekly Transaction Statement under the PDS section. Claims will be identified by the prefix “C” and
the last six digits of the VIN.
The PDS will continue to be subject to all administrative repair order requirements as outlined in the
Warranty Policy and Procedures Manual. This includes punch time verification.
Retailers that receive a vehicle from another retailer and are not the wholesaling retailer should verify
with the wholesaling retailer if the PDS has been performed. Reimbursement would have to be worked
out between the retailers directly. Claims will only be paid to the retailer identified by Volvo as the
wholesaling retailer, regardless of which retailer performs the PDS.
