Delivery day is exciting-and it helps to know what's coming so you can make the most of it.

**The timeline:**
Plan 2-3 hours. You'll review and sign title, registration, loan documents, and warranty paperwork. Our team will walk you through the vehicle's features, controls, and infotainment system. They'll also discuss your warranty coverage and maintenance schedule.

**Walkthrough and inspection:**
Before you sign, do a final walkthrough inside and out. Check for dents, scratches, fluid leaks, and tire condition. Test windows, doors, locks, lights, and the infotainment screen. Ask questions about anything you're unsure of.

**Keys and systems:**
You'll receive your keys, owner manuals, and information about roadside assistance and your warranty. Our team will show you how to access your vehicle's apps and digital services.

**After delivery:**
Schedule your first service appointment and review the owner resources we provide. Castle Chevrolet McHenry's team is proud to send you off in your new Chevrolet. Call (779) 600-2956 if you have questions after you drive home-we're here for you.
