TERMS OF SERVICE
Last updated: [Month DD, YYYY]
This page is draft website content prepared for CJ's review. It is provided for general informational purposes and is not legal advice.
1. About Our Service
CJ's Auto Consulting is an independent automotive consulting service. As part of the applicable service, CJ helps buyers search for and evaluate vehicles, communicates with the dealership, and handles the dealership negotiation on the customer's behalf. The customer remains responsible for reviewing and signing final dealership documents, completing any financing or payment requirements, and making the final purchasing decision. CJ's Auto Consulting is not a dealership, lender, financial institution, or licensed broker unless otherwise stated. By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms of Service.
2. Use of the Intake Form
Our vehicle search intake form is provided so you can share information about the vehicle you're looking for, your budget, your timeline, and how you'd like CJ's Auto Consulting to help. You agree that the information you submit is accurate to the best of your knowledge. Submitting the intake form does not create a purchase agreement, financing agreement, or reservation of any vehicle.
3. No Guarantees
CJ's Auto Consulting does not guarantee vehicle availability, vehicle pricing, financing approval, trade-in values, or savings. Vehicle inventory, pricing, fees, incentives, and financing terms are determined by third-party dealerships, sellers, and lenders and can change at any time without notice. Any estimates provided during a consultation are for informational purposes only.
4. Acceptable Use

5. Third-Party Dealerships and Sellers
CJ's Auto Consulting is independent from any dealership, seller, or lender. Any transaction to purchase, finance, lease, or trade in a vehicle is between you and the applicable third party, not CJ's Auto Consulting. You are responsible for reviewing and signing your own purchase and financing documents.
