In the event that the service necessitates performing work at a parking garage or parking lot, the customer shall assume responsibility for covering the parking expenses incurred by our technician during the service duration.
Payments made directly to the technician outside of ICF platform would be considered a voluntary arrangement between the customer and the technician. Instant Car Fix does not exercise any control over or involvement in payments made outside of our platform. In such cases, these payments are akin to tips or gratuities that customers sometimes choose to offer as a token of appreciation.
You are responsible for all fees, including any applicable federal, state or local taxes. When you use the service, you will have to provide us with a valid means of payment. You agree to pay Instant Car Fix any charges incurred in connection with your use of the service. Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by ICF. We reserve the right to establish, remove and or revise Charges for any or all Vehicle Services at any time in our sole discretion. If a Technician changes the Vehicle Services needed, or adds additional Vehicle Services, you authorize the payment of updated or modified Charges. If the Technician determines that your car requires services other than the Vehicle Services you specified in your original Job Request or that the Technician is not able to perform such work, you may be charged a separate diagnosis fee. If the Technician determines that the claimed defect is not the result of a defect in materials or workmanship of the Vehicle Services, you will be charged for one hour of labor fees of $99.99.
In an event that our mechanic performs a diagnostic assessment on your vehicle, and upon inspection, he is unable to replicate or identify the reported issue as defined in the orignial work order, a service fee will be changed for the time and expertise expended during the diagnosis. This fee is non-negotiable and will be billed at our standard diagnostic rate.
By opting for labor only services with customer supplied parts you acknowledge and agree that you will be responsible for providing all necessary parts and suplemental materials required for the service. It is the customers responsibility to ensure that the provided parts are compatible, safe and of the correct specifications for the intented service. In an event that customer supplied parts are incorrect, incompatible, or unsafe for the intended service, the customer is still obligated to pay for the labor as defined in the original work order. The labor charges are separate from the cost of parts and remain due.
You agree that you must make yourself available to hand over your vehicle to the technician. Also, it is your responsibility to provide a suitable location to complete the job. You agree to treat technicians respectfully and lawfully and to provide reasonable cooperation to them to enable them to inspect, conduct video and/or photo recording of your vehicle, receive your vehicle, complete the job and return your vehicle to you.
Instant Car Fix will not be responsible for delays in repairing from events arising beyond its control. Furthermore, we do not guarantee timelines for completion of a job request. You acknowledge and agree that job requests may take longer to complete than the estimated timelines communicated to you through the ICF platform and that ICF shall not be held liable or responsible for any delay in completion of a job request. Due to any unforeseen circumstances, if our technician is running late, the mechanic may attempt to contact you and inform the new estimated time of arrival.
Technicians may be subject to a vetting process before they can register for and during their use of the ICF Platform, including but not limited to criminal history, credit history, eviction records and motor vehicle records, Although we may perform checks of technicians, we cannot and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or reliability of technical expertise, identity or any other information provided to us by the technician. Customers are encouraged to exercise caution for your own safety while interacting with technicians.
Cancellations made more than 48 hours in advance of the service start time will receive a 100% refund. Cancellations made less than 48 hours of the scheduled service start time will incur a $99.99 cancellation fee.
If you fail to make yourself available to the mechanic on the date and time of the appointment, you will incur a $99.99 no show fee.
If you wish to reschedule the appointment, you will be charged $24.99 reschedule fee if the request is made less than 48 hours of the scheduled service start time. You could reschedule the appointment at no cost if the request is made more than 48 hours in advance of the service start time.
Refunds will be done only through the Original Mode of Payment. In the event, transaction error has occurred while making the payment, a refund in most cases will be issued to the same method of payment you used for the original purchase. When a technician cancels a scheduled job, we generally notify you and make reasonable efforts to find another technician for you. However, there is no guarantee that another technician will be found for the service requested and job be completed. You hereby agree to hold us harmless from any liability that may result from the cancellation of a job or our inability to find another technician for the service requested on the scheduled date.
If the customer requests to halt the work after it has began, the customer will be responsible for the payment of full contract amount, as specified in the original order agreement. This includes any work completed upto the point of cancellation, as well as costs incured for resources and efforts invested in the project.
In cases where the customer provides incorrect or incompatible parts for a labor-only service, our company reserves the right to charge the customer for one hour of labor to cover the technician's time spent evaluating, diagnosing, and addressing the issue.
This Limited Warranty, which is provided by Instant Car Fix LLC, in only applicable to the original purchaser of Vehicle Services that was requested and scheduled through the ICF platform and does not extend to any person who may purchase your car after the Vehicles services are performed. Detailed Limited Warranty conditions can be found at: Limited Warranty
For the most reliable inspection results, it is essential that a vehicle be clean and dry to ensure proper visibility of all its components. Additionally, ample lighting is also critical for a Technician to accurately detect any indications of prior bodywork or repainting as these tasks are not conducted by technicians during pre-purchase inspections. Poor weather conditions and uncleanliness can significantly impede an accurate examination so make sure your car meets these criteria before proceeding with the inspection process!
A technician will travel to your location in order to assess the car, but they won't be lifting it up - only using a floor jack on certain parts. Pre-purchase inspections aren't meant for diagnosing problems; typically no diagnostic equipment is used during these tests. The technician may note down the vehicle identification number (VIN), though this doesn't involve establishing its authenticity or verifying any history/title information connected with it.
Although pre-purchase inspection reports are not guaranteed or warranted, it's important to note that cars can undergo changes and/or develop issues from the time they're inspected to when they're purchased. During these inspections, our technicians cannot see inside an engine or transmission nor do we take apart every component of a car - this means any potential malfunctions may not be apparent at the moment of examination.
Although our Technicians may make comments, it is ultimately up to you whether or not you purchase a vehicle. Be aware that we are in no way responsible for advising on the value of any vehicle, authenticating its origin, determining if a vehicle is emission compliant, or ensuring that the car will perform properly. All decisions and consequences pertaining to your purchase must be assumed by yourself alone.
You can stop using the service at any time without notice to us. ICF has the right to suspend or terminate your access to all or any part of the website at any time, with or without cause or notice, effective immediately. ICF reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.
When you schedule a diagnosis job with Instant Car Fix, the mechanic would go through a step-by-step process of ruling out or confirm the parts that have failed. This could be done through visual inspection or through running various tests. For each diagnostic service call, our mechanic will diagnose one specific issue as reported by you or as evident by the inspection. Should the car experience multiple issues, we recommend scheduling separate service calls to address them effectively. Although mechanics use their expertise in performing diagnosis, we cannot guarantee that any particular diagnosis will identify all of the problems with the car (and/or solutions) during the first inspection. Any subsequent or follow up inspection will be charged a separate diagnosis fee. For e.g., if the car has died due to the battery and alternator failing at the same time, the mechanic would not be able to check the alternator if battery has failed. He would recommend replacing the battery as the first step. If the car would not start even after replacing the battery, the mechanic would have to come for a diagnosis again and the customer would be charged a separate diagnosis fee.
After receiving a diagnosis, you may or may not request subsequent repair work recommended based on the diagnosis of the technician. You agree that our Limited Warranty applies only to such repair work, not to the completeness of the diagnosis or to any problems that you may be experiencing with your car (other than a problem with the replaced part itself). For example, if your car has a coolant leak, the leak may be coming from different places in your engine. The Technician may recommend replacing the part responsible for the most obvious source of the leak, and then recheck the car to see if there are other components that are leaking too. You understand that, if there are other leaking components, replacing those other components would be separate work subject to an additional Charge. For e.g., if the technician spots a hose leaking coolant, he would recommend replacing those. However, after replacing those and doing a pressure test, he finds that water pump is leaking coolant too, those would be considered separate work and be subject to an additional charge.
