If any has new car sales/service experience on Dealers lots. May I ask? They registered my new car at a BMW dealer with Feb registration. I noticed this when I got home and decided to ask them to change it to March (month of purchase) when in for other service. They have told me no….they can’t do it.
I do believe they can.
Also was told (and this one makes more sense) the inspection was done in Feb, because that’s when they took delivery of the car at the dealer. That may be correct, but my last new purchase I believe had inspection same month as registration (month of purchase). Could be though that the dealer took delivery same month I purchased the vehicle.
I know I’m correct about my registration and will have to go through sales to get it sorted. (Service said BY LAW they can’t change it, once that slap that first sticker on they cannot replace it) urmph…..
But what about the ‘inspection’? Is the inspection done at a dealer when they receive the vehicle on the lot? Or is it done by dealer at time of purchase? Just can’t find an answer to this one on the web.
I know one month’s reg/inspection is trivial but I’M the one responsible for renewals and FEELS like I have one every time I turn around. I’ve been blatantly lied to so frequently recently, I have decided that very very nicely, I’m not going to let it slide anymore. Since I have to be in anyway...they might as well tend to it.
