T1 Auto Body Works, Inc.
VEHICLE REPAIR AUTHORIZATION AND CUSTOMER AGREEMENT
Customer Authorization and Agreement
I, the undersigned, authorize the repair work on my vehicle, as specified, to be performed by T1 Auto Body Works, Inc. ("the Repair Shop"). I understand and accept the following terms and conditions regarding the repair and payment of my vehicle.
Care, Custody, and Protection (CCP) Fee
A Care, Custody, and Protection (CCP) Fee will be charged as follows:
- $150 per day for vehicles stored inside
- $125 per day for vehicles stored outside
These charges begin on the day the vehicle is dropped off at the Repair Shop. In the event that the vehicle is deemed a total loss, this CCP fee will apply from the date of drop-off until the date of removal by the customer or their insurance provider.
Authorization for Parts and Cancellation Terms
I authorize the Repair Shop to order necessary parts for repairs. Should I cancel the repairs after parts have been ordered, I agree to the following:
- Restocking Fee: A 30% restocking fee will apply to all parts ordered.
- Non-Returnable Parts: If any part ordered is non-returnable due to its status as an electronic or special order, I agree to pay for the part in full, and that part will be provided to me.
Repair Agreement
- The Repair Shop is not responsible for loss or damage to my vehicle, or any articles left in the vehicle, due to fire, theft, or any cause beyond its control.
- I grant permission to the Repair Shop and its employees to operate my vehicle on streets, highways, or elsewhere as necessary for testing and/or inspection.
- An express mechanic's lien is hereby acknowledged on the above-described vehicle to secure payment for all repair work done.
- Old Parts: Old parts removed and replaced will be discarded unless otherwise specified by me before repairs begin.
Payment and Insurance Responsibilities
All repair costs, including deductibles and any customer-paid expenses, must be settled in full before the vehicle is released. If my insurance issues a direct payment to me instead of the Repair Shop, I acknowledge that I am solely responsible for paying any outstanding balance.
If repairs are canceled or partially completed, the Repair Shop may charge for teardown costs, parts ordered, and any labor required to reassemble the vehicle.
Estimate Time and Rental Policy
The Repair Shop makes no guarantee regarding repair completion times due to possible delays from insurance approvals, parts availability, or other factors beyond our control. Rental or alternative transportation coverage, if required, is my responsibility and may not be reimbursed by the Repair Shop.
Sublet Work and Payment
Please remove any personal articles from your vehicle, as it may be necessary to have outside companies perform sublet work on your vehicle. No vehicle will be released until payment is made in full. Please be certain that all payees, including all lien holders, have endorsed the insurance check prior to the completion of repairs.
