Terms of Service

Effective Date: May 1, 2025 · californiafix.us · BAR Registration: ARD 313954

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("you" or "user") and California Fix Inc, a California corporation registered as an Automotive Repair Dealer with the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR Registration No. ARD 313954), with its principal place of business at 9865 San Fernando Road-E, Pacoima, CA 91331 ("California Fix," "we," "us," or "our").

By accessing californiafix.us, submitting a quote request, or otherwise using our services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use this website or submit any information through it.

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Your continued use of the site after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

2. Description of Services

2a. Pacoima Location — Direct Repair Services

At its registered location (9865 San Fernando Road-E, Pacoima, CA 91331), California Fix Inc operates directly as a licensed Automotive Repair Dealer (BAR Registration No. ARD 313954). At this location, California Fix Inc is the repair provider of record and is directly responsible for all repair services performed, including compliance with all obligations under the California Automotive Repair Act (Business and Professions Code Chapter 20.3).

2b. Partner Network — Referral and Brand Licensing

California Fix also operates a network of independently licensed auto body and collision repair shops across California ("partner shops"). Each partner shop holds its own valid BAR Automotive Repair Dealer licence and operates as a legally independent business. Partner shops may trade under the California Fix name as a registered DBA (doing business as).

At partner shop locations, California Fix's role is limited to:

  • Accepting quote requests from consumers and matching them with an appropriate partner shop
  • Facilitating initial contact between the consumer and the assigned partner shop
  • Providing general information about auto body repair services and pricing in California
  • Licensing the California Fix brand and quality standards to partner shops

At partner shop locations, California Fix Inc is a referral intermediary, not the repair provider of record. All repair work at partner locations is performed by the independent licensed partner shop. Each partner shop is solely responsible for the repair services it performs, its own BAR compliance, and its obligations to consumers under California law.

3. Eligibility

To use our services, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years of age
  • Be located in the state of California or be seeking repair services for a vehicle located in California
  • Provide accurate and complete information when submitting a quote request
  • Have the legal authority to authorise repair of the vehicle described in your request

By submitting a quote request, you represent and warrant that you meet all eligibility requirements above.

4. Quote Requests and the Referral Process

4a. Submitting a Quote Request

When you submit a quote request through californiafix.us, you are requesting that California Fix connect you with a partner shop that may be able to service your vehicle. Submission of a quote request does not:

  • Guarantee that a partner shop will be available or able to service your vehicle
  • Guarantee any specific price, timeline, or repair outcome
  • Create a contract for repair services between you and California Fix
  • Obligate you to proceed with any repair or accept any quote provided

4b. Matching and Callback

Following submission of your request, California Fix will endeavour to connect you with a suitable partner shop, typically within 30 minutes during business hours. The assigned shop will contact you directly to discuss your repair needs, provide an estimate, and arrange an appointment if you choose to proceed.

California Fix does not guarantee a specific callback time and is not liable for delays caused by partner shop availability, high demand, or circumstances outside our control.

4c. Referral Fee Disclosure

In the interest of full transparency: partner shops pay California Fix a referral fee when a consumer referred through our platform proceeds with a repair. This fee is paid by the shop, not by you, and does not affect the price you are quoted or charged for repair services. Our referral relationships do not influence the repair estimates or recommendations provided by partner shops.

5. Repair Services and Quality Standards

5a. Pacoima Location

At the Pacoima location, California Fix Inc is the licensed repair provider and is responsible for compliance with all obligations under the California Automotive Repair Act, including providing a written estimate before work begins (B&P Code § 9884.9), obtaining written authorisation, providing an itemised invoice, and returning replaced parts on request. Any disputes regarding repairs performed at the Pacoima location should be directed to California Fix Inc in the first instance.

5b. Partner Shop Locations

California Fix vets partner shops prior to inclusion in our network, including review of BAR licence status, Google ratings, and business credentials. However, at partner shop locations:

  • Each partner shop is an independently licensed ARD and is solely responsible for the repair services it performs
  • California Fix does not guarantee the quality, workmanship, timeliness, or outcome of any repair performed by a partner shop
  • California Fix does not guarantee that any estimate provided by a partner shop is accurate, complete, or final
  • California Fix is not responsible for any damage to your vehicle that occurs during or after a repair performed by a partner shop

All repair warranties, guarantees, and statutory obligations at partner shop locations are the sole responsibility of the individual partner shop performing the work. Any disputes regarding repairs at partner locations must be directed to that partner shop and, where applicable, to the California Bureau of Automotive Repair (bar.ca.gov).

California Fix encourages all consumers to obtain a written estimate and written authorisation for repair as required under California Business and Professions Code § 9884.9 before authorising any work, regardless of location.

7. Limitation of Liability

The limitations in this section apply differently depending on the location of service.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY CALIFORNIA LAW, CALIFORNIA FIX INC, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OUR REFERRAL SERVICES AT PARTNER SHOP LOCATIONS.
IN NO EVENT SHALL CALIFORNIA FIX'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR REFERRAL SERVICES AT PARTNER SHOP LOCATIONS EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00). Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of liability; in such jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
