Purpose

This document sets out the entire terms and conditions relating to the provision of Works and the supply of Parts by the Repairer to the Customer.

Works Authorisation

  • By requesting the Repairer to carry out the Works, the Customer authorises the Repairer to do all acts and things that are in the opinion of the Repairer necessary or desirable to carry out and complete the Works including:

(a) to install or remove from the vehicle any Part, component device; and
(b) to move, drive and test the vehicle, any Part or any component of the vehicle.

  • Where the Customer is acting as an agent in requesting the Works, then the Customer is jointly and severally liable with its principal for all amounts payable to the Repairer.
  • Quotes for any Works by the Repairer are valid for the period stated in that quote unless otherwise advised by the Repairer in writing.
  • Prices are inclusive of GST.
  • The Customer cannot withdraw a request for the Works to be done or call for the Works to cease before completion unless the Repairer otherwise agrees.

Estimates and Payment

We provide an estimate of the cost of all work to be undertaken. The estimate will be discussed with you prior to work being commenced on your vehicle. Estimates remain valid for 7 days. All estimates and prices include GST.

Should additional work be found necessary during the course of the service which would cause the estimate to be exceeded, we will contact you to explain the additional work required and to seek your authorisation for the additional costs to be incurred before proceeding.

A detailed tax invoice outlining the work carried out and associated costs will be provided once the work is completed. Payment must be made in full at the time of the work being completed. We accept cash, credit cards, EFTPOS and bank cheques. Payment made by Visa or MasterCard credit cards will incur a surcharge of 1%. Payment made by American Express credit cards (Amex) will incur a surcharge of 3%. Personal cheques are not accepted.

Payment Upon Completion of Works

  • The Customer must pay the full invoiced price, plus all other amounts payable to the Repairer under these terms and conditions, arising out of the Works for the Customer, after which (but not before) the vehicle or other goods upon which the Works have been carried out will be available for collection by the Customer.
  • If the Customer fails to pay the full invoiced price of the Works within 30 days, the Customer must pay interest on that amount at a rate equal to the benchmark rate quoted by Suncorp-Metway Ltd ABN 66 010 831 722 AFSL No 229882 Australian Credit Licence number 229882 (“Suncorp Bank”) from time to time plus 2% calculated on a daily basis from its due date for payment until the amount outstanding (plus interest) has been paid in full.
  • Before making payment, the Customer must inspect the works and satisfy itself that the Works have been carried out in a proper and satisfactory manner. By making payment, the Customer accepts that the Works have been carried out in a proper and satisfactory manner.
  • Any works completion date quoted by the Repairer is an estimate only and the Repairer is not liable for any failure to complete the Works by that date.
  • All parts or components not held in stock by the Repairer are subject to price and exchange rate variations at the time of payment.

Lien and Title

  • In addition to any workman’s or repairer’s lien which the Repairer may have over the vehicle, the Parts or other goods on which the Works have been carried out, the Repairer has a general lien over that vehicle, the Parts or other goods and all other property of the Customer that comes into the possession of the Repairer for any reason until all amounts owing by the Customer on any account whatsoever have been paid to the Repairer.
  • Title to any Parts installed by the Repairer remains with the Repairer until payment in full has been received.

The Repairer is not responsible for towing costs or other costs of moving any vehicle or Part to from the Repairer’s premises whether before or after the conduct of the Works. The Customer bears the cost of bringing any vehicle to the Repairer’s premises for any Work.
  • If any Works or Parts supplied pursuant to this agreement are supplied to the Customer as a ‘consumer’ of goods or services within the meaning of that term in the Australian Consumer Law or relevant state legislation the Customer has the benefit of certain non-excludable rights and remedies in respect of the Works or Parts and nothing in this Document excludes or restricts or modifies any condition, warranty, right or remedy which pursuant to the Australian Consumer Law or similar legislation is so conferred.
  • If the vehicle or Works is a product not ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption pursuant to s 64A of the Australian Consumer Law and similar provisions of relevant state legislation the Repairer’s liability is limited to the payment of an amount equal to the lowest of:
        • (a) the cost of replacing the Parts or supplying equivalent Parts;
        • (b) the cost of repair of the Parts;
        • (c) the cost of having the Parts repaired or replaced.
