it is a new car, you have warranty, i would not be concerned.
just check the interior and exterior condition after they clean it for delivery to make sure there is no paint defect, scratches or dings, do the same interior condition for any damage to fabrics,defective parts.

Dealers don't have a clue, so they aren't leaving anything out to begin with...
