INSPECTION SERVICE AGREEMENT
Effective Date: June 19, 2026
PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY.
By ordering, purchasing, scheduling, or receiving inspection services from Pre Purchase Auto Inspections LLC (“PPAI,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Inspection Service Agreement.
- NATURE OF THE INSPECTION
The inspection provided by PPAI is a visual, non-invasive evaluation of a vehicle’s condition at the time of inspection.
The inspection is limited to components that are reasonably visible and accessible without disassembly, removal of parts, destructive testing, specialized laboratory analysis, or extensive diagnostic procedures.
The inspection is intended to assist the customer in evaluating a vehicle before purchase. It is not intended to determine every existing defect or predict future failures.
- NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE
PPAI does not warrant, guarantee, certify, insure, or promise the future condition, reliability, safety, performance, value, or longevity of any vehicle.
The inspection report reflects the inspector’s observations and professional opinions based solely upon the vehicle’s condition at the time of inspection.
No representation made by PPAI shall be construed as a warranty, guarantee, insurance policy, service contract, or certification of vehicle condition.
- LIMITATIONS OF INSPECTION
Customer understands and agrees that:
- Hidden, concealed, latent, intermittent, or future defects may exist.
- Mechanical, electrical, electronic, structural, cosmetic, safety, and performance issues may develop after the inspection.
- Components may fail without warning after inspection.
- Certain defects may not be detectable during a visual inspection.
- Vehicle history reports, accident history, flood history, title history, and prior repairs may be incomplete or inaccurate.
- Diagnostic trouble codes may not always be present even when defects exist.
- Road conditions, weather, access limitations, dealership restrictions, battery condition, and vehicle availability may limit inspection scope.
- CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITY
The customer remains solely responsible for all vehicle purchase decisions.
The inspection report is one tool among many that should be considered when evaluating a vehicle purchase.
Customer is encouraged to obtain additional inspections, repair estimates, maintenance records, title research, vehicle history reports, and professional mechanical evaluations before purchasing a vehicle.
- REPORT USE AND RELIANCE
Inspection reports are prepared exclusively for the customer who purchased the inspection.
No third party may rely upon the report without the prior written consent of PPAI.
The report may not be reproduced, distributed, sold, transferred, assigned, or relied upon by any subsequent purchaser, dealership, lender, insurer, attorney, or other third party without written authorization.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the fullest extent permitted by law, PPAI’s total liability arising out of or relating to any inspection, report, service, website, employee, inspector, contractor, or representative shall be limited to the amount paid by the customer for the inspection service giving rise to the claim.
Under no circumstances shall PPAI be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, punitive, or economic damages, including but not limited to:
- Loss of vehicle value
- Repair expenses
- Loss of use
- Loss of profits
- Lost business opportunities
- Towing expenses
- Rental vehicle expenses
- Financing costs
- Diminished value claims
- CLAIM NOTICE REQUIREMENT
Customer agrees to provide written notice of any claim within thirty (30) days after discovery of the alleged issue.
Customer shall provide PPAI a reasonable opportunity to inspect the vehicle before repairs are performed whenever practical.
Failure to provide such opportunity may impair PPAI’s ability to evaluate the claim and may result in denial of the claim.
- INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS
PPAI may utilize employees, subcontractors, independent contractors, or affiliated inspectors to perform inspection services.
All such individuals shall be entitled to the protections, limitations of liability, and defenses contained within this Agreement.
- FORCE MAJEURE
PPAI shall not be liable for delays, interruptions, cancellations, or failures in performance caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to weather events, natural disasters, vehicle unavailability, dealership restrictions, transportation disruptions, utility failures, internet outages, software failures, cyber incidents, governmental actions, labor shortages, illness, or emergencies.
- GOVERNING LAW
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Texas.
Any dispute arising from this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Harris County, Texas, and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
- ATTORNEY’S FEES
In any action arising from this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs, and related expenses as permitted by law.
- SEVERABILITY
If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
- ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning inspection services and supersedes all prior oral or written representations regarding the inspection.
- ELECTRONIC ACCEPTANCE
Customer acknowledges that checking an acceptance box, submitting an order, electronically signing, paying for services, or otherwise proceeding with the inspection request constitutes legal acceptance of this Agreement.
