Delivery day is exciting-and straightforward if you know what to expect. Our team makes the handover smooth and celebrates this milestone with you.

**Before you arrive:**
Finalize your financing and insurance (you'll need proof of coverage). Confirm the time with our team.

**At the dealership:**
Our team will walk through the vehicle with you-exterior condition, interior features, dashboard lights, infotainment, safety features, and trunk space. Test windows, locks, seat adjustments, and wipers. This is your moment to spot any concerns before signing.

**Paperwork:**
Sign title, registration, warranty documentation, and finance contracts if applicable. Review your loan or lease terms. You'll also receive owner manuals, maintenance schedules, and information about roadside assistance.

**Final touches:**
We'll explain how to use your vehicle's features, where to get service, and how to access your owner portal. You'll drive home in your new vehicle.

**Schedule your delivery:**
Once your purchase is complete, our team will coordinate the perfect time. Call **(219) 250-9487** or visit **castlecdjrchesterton.com** to start the process.
