These Terms apply to, supersede the terms of, and are integrated into any document signed by and between RSP and Customer including, but not limited to, quotes, work orders, agreements to provide services, authorization to do work (each “Contract”) whether or not these Terms are expressly referenced therein. In the event of inconsistency between these Terms and any other Contract, unless otherwise agreed in a signed writing signed by RSP, these Terms shall govern all services provided by RSP to Customer.
1. Services. RSP shall provide to Customer the services (the “Services”) set out in the Contract. RSP shall provide the Services (a) in accordance with the provisions and subject to the conditions set forth in these Terms and (b) in a workmanlike and professional manner.
2. Fees and Expenses; Payment Terms; Late Payments. The Customer shall pay all fees due and owing under the Contract on or before the time of pickup. The Customer shall make all payments hereunder in US dollars by wire transfer, ACH transfer, cash, check, or credit card. RSP shall issue written invoices (each an “Invoice”) to the Customer for the cost of the Services. Invoices will clearly indicate the Services for which the Customer is being charged. In the event the Customer disputes any of the invoiced amounts, it shall within fifteen (15) days from receipt of Invoice, provide written notice and explanation of such disputes to RSP. After fifteen (15) days from receipt of each Invoice, Customer shall be deemed to accept the invoiced amounts as complete and accurate if written notice is not provided. The parties shall seek to resolve all such disputes expeditiously and in good faith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Party shall continue performing its obligations under this Agreement during any such dispute, including, without limitation, payment by the Customer of all undisputed fees due and payable under the Contract. Customer acknowledges and agrees that, in accordance with applicable state laws, RSP retains a mechanic’s lien on the vehicle for any unpaid charges for labor, parts, and storage, and may retain possession of the vehicle until such charges are paid in full. Storage fees will be applied at a rate of Seventy-Five Dollars ($75.00) per day beginning the first (1st) business day after Service is complete.
3. Estimate & Authorization Policy. No Service shall be performed without a signed estimate or written authorization from the Customer. In the event additional work is identified during inspection or in the course of performing Services, such additional work shall not be undertaken without the Customer’s prior written approval, which may be provided by signed estimate, email, or text message. To the extent Customer will not authorize additional work or parts RSP deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to complete the Services, Customer shall be responsible for all costs associated with reassembly of the vehicle.
4. Parts and Warranty Policy. RSP warrants that all parts under this Agreement will be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service for the earlier of five-hundred (500) miles or three (3) months from the date of Service. This warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of defective parts supplied by RSP, at the sole discretion of the RSP. This warranty does not cover damage caused by misuse, abuse, neglect, or unauthorized modifications, normal wear and tear, parts that have been repaired or altered by anyone other than RSP or its authorized representatives, incidental or consequential damages, including but not limited to loss of use, loss of revenue, or loss of profits. Customer acknowledges that any parts, components, or materials supplied by the Customer for use in the Services are not covered under any warranty, express or implied, by RSP. Additionally, if Customer requests any parts—whether supplied by Customer or otherwise—be modified, altered, or adapted in order to fit, function, or be installed on a vehicle, such modifications shall be performed solely at Customer’s request and risk. RSP expressly disclaims any responsibility for the performance, safety, or compatibility of such modified parts, and no warranty of any kind shall apply to those parts or to any Services affected by their use. Customer assumes full responsibility and liability for any damages, failures, or issues arising from the use or modification of such parts. To make a warranty claim, the Customer must notify RSP in writing within fifteen (15) days of discovering the defect. The notification must include a detailed description of the defect and proof of purchase. RSP will evaluate the claim and, if deemed valid, will provide instructions for the return or repair of the defective part. Customer is responsible for using the parts in accordance with the RSP’s instructions and for maintaining the parts in good condition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any defects in parts that exist when purchased by RSP shall be customer’s responsibility to address with the manufacturer of such products, unless RSP agrees otherwise in writing.

6. Storage and Abandonment Policy. Vehicles remaining on RSP’s premises for more than five (5) business days following completion of Services, without pickup by the Customer, shall be subject to a storage fee of Seventy-Five Dollars ($75.00) per day. If a vehicle remains unclaimed for thirty (30) consecutive days without communication from the Customer, it may be deemed abandoned and subject to lien sale proceedings in accordance with applicable state and local laws.
7. Diagnostic Charges; Test Drive and Tear-Down Authorization. Customer hereby authorizes RSP to operate the vehicle, as necessary, for the purposes of diagnostics, test driving, and quality assurance. Diagnostic services are billable, and charges for diagnostic time shall apply regardless of whether the Customer authorizes or proceeds with any recommended repairs. Customer authorizes RSP to perform any necessary partial or complete disassembly of components for diagnostic purposes as deemed appropriate by RSP. Customer acknowledges and agrees certain diagnostics cannot be completed without disassembly. If Customer declines recommended repairs following inspection, RSP is not responsible for reassembly of the affected components unless Customer requests and agrees to pay for the same. Labor performed for disassembly remains billable and is due at the time of pickup.
8. Vehicle Condition Disclosure. RSP shall not be responsible for any pre-existing damage, defects, or normal wear and tear to the vehicle. A visual inspection of the vehicle may be conducted upon intake, and photographs may be taken to document the condition of the vehicle at the time of delivery to RSP. Such inspection and documentation are for record-keeping purposes only and do not constitute a comprehensive inspection, evaluation, or certification of the vehicle’s condition.
9. Estimated Completion Dates. Any estimated completion dates provided by RSP are for informational purposes only and are not guaranteed. Completion times may vary due to parts availability, unforeseen circumstances, or current workload. RSP will make reasonable efforts to notify the Customer of any delays; however, RSP shall not be liable for any direct, incidental, consequential, or special damages, including but not limited to loss of use, loss of income, or inconvenience, arising from or relating to delays in the completion of services. By signing the Contract, the Customer expressly waives any and all claims against RSP for losses or damages resulting from such delays.
10. Towing and Transport Liability. Vehicles may be transported to or from RSP’s facility either by third-party transport services or, for eligible customers and at RSP’s discretion, by RSP. In all cases, Customer shall be solely responsible for ensuring that the vehicle is properly insured during transport. RSP shall not be liable for any damage, loss, or claims arising from the transport of the vehicle to or from its facility, whether such transport is provided by RSP or by a third party, or for any damage sustained while the vehicle is in transit or otherwise outside the physical premises and control of RSP. When applicable, Customer is solely responsible for selecting a properly licensed and insured third-party transport service, and for pursuing any claims for damage or loss occurring during transport directly with their insurer or the third-party transport service.
11. Flammable or Hazardous Materials. The Customer is required to disclose to RSP any known fuel system issues, fluid leaks, hazardous materials, or other conditions that may pose a safety risk.

Should such a vehicle be left on RSP’s premises, the Customer shall be responsible for any applicable storage or removal fees incurred as a result.
12. Personal Belongings. Customers are advised to remove all personal belongings from their vehicles prior to delivery. RSP shall not be responsible for any loss, theft, or damage to personal property left inside the vehicle.

13. Service Communications and Customer Response Obligations. RSP will provide service updates to the Customer via text message, telephone, or email, according to the Customer’s preferred contact method as indicated at the time of service authorization. To maintain an efficient workflow, Customers shall refrain from initiating status inquiries unless first contacted by RSP. The Customer agrees to respond to all communications from RSP within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt.

15. Custom Fabrication and Modifications Disclaimer. Custom fabrication, wiring, or retrofit services may require modification to original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) parts, systems, or wiring.
