Can’t imagine what to say about this situation but it was definitely worth the read and I hope it helps others in this situation as where I am right now I am very much looking forward for the opportunity and I hope you can help us out with this issue and I will be very well

Cons

The first thing you should do when you are in the car is take a photo of your vehicle with the front door closed so that the driver knows what to expect when they arrive at your vehicle to pick it back in front and you will see it on your vehicle.
