This is a contract that you can present to any dealer or repair shop before they fix your car. I would like feedback on how it sounds and if I should add or take something away.



Thanks

this vehicle __________________________________________ (vehicle owners name)



that it is a___________________________________________ (vehicle make and model) and it is in perfect mechanical working order and there are no dents, dings, scratches, paint chips or markings in the paint or clear coat and there are no exterior blemishes in any way, shape or form.

I also agree the car has a working AM FM CD Player and the radio will not be turned on played with in any way, shape or form during the time it is being repaired and or stored on repair vehicles' property. The power windows and or power seats are not to be used or played with in any way, shape or form during the time the vehicle is being serviced and or stored on vehicle's repair property.



The vehicle will be kept locked or in a locked building when not being serviced. Any service that has not already been discussed with the vehicle owner will not be performed with out notifying the owner before in advance. This includes but is not limited to unnecessary Mileage on the odometer.



The Mileage on the odometer reads ________________________ miles at the time of drop-off.



Date________________________ and time of drop-off is ______________________________





Please understand this document is not intended to be rude or by any means insulting or questioning of you, your company, your employees or employers.



This is simply a written contract that presents everything in an extremely clear fashion as to what is and is not expected by both parties involved.
 
1.) I don't care if they listen to the radio, if they want to hear some tunes while working on my car I am all for it, whatever will make their job a little more fun.



2.) They will probaly need to adjust the seats to move the car, whether your tall and they are short or your short and they are tall.



3.) They can only store the car where they can find space. They can't keep the car inside while they are waiting for you and hold up other cars. It's only fair for them, the cars inside get worked on and the cars outside are waiting or they are done.



I understand what your trying to say "don't f*ck my car up" but some of those requests are a little too strict (expect the radio, thats up to you).



I think it is an AWESOME idea to have the dealership inspect and sign a waiver stating what damage you already had on the car so there is no confusion later on.
 
No, this contract is targeted towards dealerships and repair shops repairing your vehicle. I detail my cars anyway



I just want to make that clear.





Thanks for responding.
 
I'm with Joe here. Someone will prolly have to move the seat. I don't see the radio thing being a big deal unless you have a custom sound system and you should be able to yank a couple fuses to prevent that from working. Demanding secure lock up is a tough one too as Joe mentioned. Security and insurance issues should be discussed before you leave the car, most shops have insurance in case of theft or vandalism.



As for other damages, I agree they need to be aware that you will hold them responsible if they occur. Damage and even theft happens at dealers and shops. My biggest worry is interior and exterior damage while the car's being repaired.

Those are the parts they aren't going to sign it for. They aren't going to take the time to inspect all that and they sure as hell aren't going to take someone's word for it. Like the others have said, it would be hard not to detail a car without moving the seat or maybe rolling down the windows. I roll down the windows all the time when I'm detailing. It helps air out the car. I just do the glass last.



If someone came to me with a contract like that then I'd point them toward another detailer. It would look like a setup to me. I don't think it would be a good idea. If you can't take your car to the shop and tell the shop manager what you want done and trust him that it will be done that way, then you need to go to a different shop. Plain and simple.
