An active listing is a useful starting point, but it is not automatically a current source of truth. Mileage can change, minor damage can appear, maintenance can be completed, and pricing decisions can change while a vehicle remains in inventory.
Before relisting, compare the old listing with the vehicle and dealership records. Marketplace Assistant reduces re-entry work, while the dealer remains responsible for the final accuracy check.
Practical checklist
- ✓Confirm the vehicle is still available
- ✓Read and photograph the current odometer
- ✓Compare the VIN with dealership records
- ✓Walk around the exterior in good light
- ✓Inspect seats, controls, cargo area, wheels, and tires
- ✓Update price and maintenance details
- ✓Replace photos that no longer represent the vehicle
- ✓Review the completed draft before publishing
Use a current odometer reading
Do not carry an old mileage value forward without checking it. Record the current odometer and update both the dedicated mileage field and any mileage mentioned in the description.
Separate normal wear from material changes
Compare the vehicle with the previous photo set and condition notes. Add clear images and plain-language disclosure for changes that a buyer should know about. Remove statements that are no longer accurate.
Treat the copied result as a draft
After Marketplace Assistant fills the supported fields, review the VIN, year, make, model, mileage, condition, price, location, description, and every photo. Optional Facebook fields and the final Publish action remain with the dealer.
Frequently asked questions
Will Marketplace Assistant know if mileage changed?
No. It copies the available value from the selected source listing. The dealer must enter and verify the current mileage.
Does the extension verify vehicle condition?
No. Condition must be inspected and described by the seller before publication.
