Questions for the owner

No photos were reported for the driver rear corner, passenger rear corner, any wheel, or the hookup points. Were any taken?
Was the cause of the passenger rear corner scuff recorded? It is currently listed as noted at drop-off only.
What was the date of the pickup and drop-off? The notes only say "today."
Was a plate number recorded for the Passat?

What it does

Turns the driver's quick notes and photo list into a clean, written condition record for a tow. It covers the vehicle at pickup and again at drop-off, so the company and the customer both have the same record of how the vehicle looked at each point.

Use it when: Use when a towing company needs a vehicle condition record at pickup and drop-off, such as "photo checklist for this tow," "document the car's condition," "write up the damage notes," or "make a condition report before we hook up."
