Does “Exceptions Recorded” mean damaged in transport?

[azm]

I see some notations on the trucking delivery receipt. Does this mean damage? Anyone know what the codes mean?

I worked in logistics for a couple of years and I believe that claims info at the bottom is just a footer that is there on all BOLs. If there was damage there would be hand written notations stating so. This looks like a clean BOL with the driver and receiver signatures attesting to that.

Thanks for taking a look. I see the footer, but was concerned about the numbers in the Area, Type, Sev, and Alt columns. Mine in the VIN ending 130.

I’m not too sure what the numbers and codes mean but my gut is telling me the fact that it was typed means it’s count of something that was recorded at time of shipping and shouldn’t mean damage. I could be wrong but in my experience the driver or receiver would have scribbled something in pen along the lines of “1 damaged piece” or “1 damaged skid”. I think you’re fine but sorry if I’m wrong.

Area 3 - Front Bumper
Area 52 - Tailgate

Type 5 - Chipped
Type 38 - Hardware loose/missing

Seems like damage - but minimal. Nothing dealer probably couldn't get sorted during PDI or shortly after.
Just make sure you take an extra good look at those areas during delivery.

Sounds like issues noted by the shipper when they picked up the vehicle so they wouldn't be blamed for it.

Thanks! I will make sure they send me some before and after pictures. Was planning to have it shipped from PA to AZ.

Who are you using for shipping?

Haven’t decided yet. Maybe Montway, based on reccomendation from a friend. I like the idea of an enclosed option, which they have. Will take anothe look at Uship again to compare. Do you have one you’re leaning toward?

I was gonna request quotes from uship, and united road, if dealers and ford use united road, it seems like a good backup if uship shippers look sketchy. Also looking for other people recommendations

I went with Montway for an enclosed delivery. They were great.
