English term or phrase: hanger
This is a list of tasks to be accomplished after repairing a car:

...
Final check
Customer satisfaction ** hanger **
Complete administration
...

What's the meaning of "hanger" here? May it be referring to "missing tasks" or "contribution to"?

Thanks!

Explanation:
This might be it, it's tough to say. The idea is that they finish repairing the car, hey do a final check, hang a customer satisfaction questioneer on the rear-view mirror before then finally finishing up all the administrative tasks.
