Terms of Use

1. Acceptance and scope

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website operated by Ricky's Road Service ("Ricky's Road Service," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms apply only to the website. Automotive inspection, repair, payment, warranties, and other shop services may be subject to separate estimates, authorizations, invoices, warranties, or agreements provided directly by the shop.

2. Permitted website use

You may use this website for lawful, personal purposes, including learning about our services, viewing our service area, obtaining contact information, and submitting a service request. You agree not to:

• Use the website in violation of any applicable law or regulation.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the website, server, accounts, or connected systems.
• Introduce malware, harmful code, automated scraping, or activity that disrupts website operation.
• Misrepresent your identity or submit false, fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful information.
• Copy, republish, or commercially exploit website content except as allowed by law or with our written permission.

3. Automotive information and service requests

Website content is provided for general informational purposes. It is not a vehicle diagnosis, repair recommendation, safety inspection, estimate, warranty, or promise that a particular service will resolve a condition. A qualified technician must inspect the vehicle before we can confirm the cause of a problem, required work, availability, timing, or price.

Submitting a contact form, leaving a message, or sending an email does not create an appointment, repair order, customer relationship, or obligation for us to perform work. An appointment or service arrangement is confirmed only when the shop communicates confirmation directly to you.

If you believe a vehicle is unsafe to drive, do not rely on this website or wait for an online response. Stop driving when it is safe to do so and contact appropriate emergency, towing, roadside, or repair assistance.

4. Communications

When you submit a service request, you authorize us to respond using the phone number or email address you provide. Standard carrier charges may apply to calls or text messages. You may ask us to stop nonessential text or email communications at any time. Service-related communications may still be necessary to respond to an active request or existing repair matter.

5. Third-party services and links

The website may use or link to third-party services, including Google Maps, Elfsight review tools, SendGrid email delivery, Bootstrap content delivery, and other providers. Third-party websites and services operate under their own terms and privacy practices. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, or practices. A link does not imply endorsement unless expressly stated.

6. Intellectual property

The website design, text, graphics, logos, photographs, code, and other content are owned by Ricky's Road Service, its licensors, or the identified rights holder and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and print reasonable portions for personal, noncommercial use. All other use requires prior written permission.

7. Website disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the website and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, current, complete, or suitable for a particular purpose. Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ricky's Road Service and its owners, employees, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from website use or inability to use the website. Our aggregate liability for a claim arising solely from use of this website will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid specifically to use the website or $100. This limitation does not apply where prohibited by law or to liability that cannot legally be limited.

9. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold Ricky's Road Service harmless from third-party claims, damages, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the website, your violation of these Terms, or content you submit through the website.

10. Changes and availability

We may update the website or these Terms from time to time. Changes become effective when posted with a revised "Last updated" date. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any website feature without notice. Your continued use after a change means you accept the revised Terms.

11. Governing law and severability

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute relating to these Terms or the website must be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction serving the county in Texas where Ricky's Road Service is located, unless applicable law requires another forum. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
