PartsQuest customer terms
Terms of Service
These Terms govern PartsQuest, LLC's hard-to-find automotive-part sourcing and comparison service for
professional repair shops in the United States purchasing for business use. PartsQuest is not a marketplace,
ordering service, delivery service, warranty advocate, or fitment authority.
Effective: November 10, 2026
Service Boundary
For an accepted request, PartsQuest returns a documented source trail, comparison, clarification request,
exhausted trail, or explicit operational exception. The shop confirms fitment, condition, price, tax,
shipping, warranty, returns, supplier terms, timing, and ordering directly with the supplier. PartsQuest
does not buy, pay for, reserve, ship, install, guarantee fitment, guarantee supplier acceptance, guarantee
that a supplier answers or that a call completes, or guarantee a successful find. If no reviewed supplier
or dealer parts counter covers the vehicle and area and the shop has provided no supplier of its own, the
search cannot proceed and its search allowance is restored.
Plans, Searches, And Capacity
- PartsQuest Desk costs $399 per month and includes 45 parts searches per billing month.
- PartsQuest Pro costs $599 per month and includes 80 parts searches per billing month.
- PartsQuest Pipeline costs $799 per month and includes 140 parts searches per billing month.
- A shop may have more than one sourcing ticket open at a time. Each ticket counts against the plan's monthly parts searches.
- A search counts against the month's searches once any supplier or dealer gives an answer about the part: it has it, it can order it, it does not have it, or it cannot get it. A search that closes or is canceled before any supplier or dealer gives such an answer is restored to the month's searches.
- PartsQuest pauses new checkout admission when launch capacity is full or during a published maintenance window. A cancellation does not automatically reopen admission until capacity is rechecked.
- One ticket covers one vehicle or equipment unit and one primary part need, including reasonable supersession or substitute checks.
- The shop must provide enough vehicle, part, urgency, preferred-source, and prior-search context to run a professional search.
- Source options are point-in-time findings and can expire without notice.
- PartsQuest may pause, reject, or stop work that is missing key information, out of scope, unsafe, abusive, or dependent on private or paywalled information PartsQuest is not approved to use.
- The shop authorizes PartsQuest to contact suppliers and dealer parts departments for accepted tickets by automated, AI-assisted phone call placed on the shop's behalf, using the shop-provided request details, subject to PartsQuest's opt-out, disclosure, dialing-hours, and call-safety controls. Supplier numbers the shop enters itself are called as provided. PartsQuest does not verify them in advance; a number is treated as unverified until a call establishes whether it reaches a parts counter, and PartsQuest stops calling numbers that prove wrong. The shop is responsible for the accuracy of the supplier numbers it enters.
- The shop is responsible for keeping its login credentials, result packets, supplier terms, and customer information within authorized shop personnel.
Reasonable Use
Each PartsQuest plan is based on monthly sourcing-ticket volume, not a guarantee of a fixed number of supplier
calls, successful finds, same-day results, or unlimited support. PartsQuest may reject, pause, stop, or require
a narrower scope for unusually broad, repetitive, incomplete, abusive, high-risk, or operationally impractical
requests.
Operating Window And Support
Accepted tickets are worked by PartsQuest's automated sourcing system, including AI-assisted phone calls to
supplier and dealer parts departments, without a human operator on each ticket. Calls are placed during the
called business's local business hours. Support requests are handled through the in-app support form and
support@partsquest.org during the support window, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time,
excluding U.S. federal holidays. PartsQuest targets acknowledgment of support requests within one business day.
It also targets a result, clarification request, exhausted trail, or explicit operational exception within one
business day after complete required information is available. A business day means one support-window day.
These are targets, not service-level agreements or guarantees. A support request received outside the window
is treated as received at 8:00 a.m. Pacific on the next business day, and its one-business-day target ends at
5:00 p.m. Pacific that day.
No Guarantees
PartsQuest does not guarantee that a part will be found. PartsQuest also does not guarantee inventory, price,
fitment, delivery time, supplier acceptance, warranty, return eligibility, or that a supplier option will still be
valid when the shop contacts the supplier.
Billing, Cancellation, And Refunds
Your subscription renews monthly until canceled. You may cancel in Stripe's Billing Portal or by emailing
support@partsquest.org. A support cancellation request received before the next renewal stops the next charge,
even if PartsQuest processes it later; service continues through the current paid period and cancellation takes
effect at period end. Current-period charges are nonrefundable once that period begins, except for duplicate
or erroneous charges or where required by law. Failed or unpaid billing pauses new sourcing work until resolved.
Taxes
PartsQuest sells to business purchasers in the United States. All plan prices are tax-exclusive. Where
PartsQuest is registered to collect sales tax for a shop's billing address, the tax is calculated from that
address and added at checkout and on each renewal invoice. Oregon has no sales tax. Where PartsQuest does not
collect, the shop remains responsible for any use tax its own jurisdiction imposes on the purchase.
Text Notification Terms
Program name: PartsQuest ticket notifications. A person may opt in through any of three unchecked,
per-recipient controls: an authenticated shop owner or admin may enter a mobile number in shop Settings and
separately confirm that recipient's consent for shop ticket notifications; a person submitting the public
PartsQuest request form may enter a mobile number and separately check the optional text-consent box for that
request; or a person sending a question from the PartsQuest ROI page may enter a mobile number and separately
check the optional box to be texted about that question. Texts may include PartsQuest ticket status, source results, availability results, and notification
settings. Message frequency varies by ticket activity and account use. Message and data rates may apply.
Reply STOP to opt out. Reply HELP for help. Opting out of texts does not cancel a PartsQuest account
or subscription, and ticket status may still be available in the PartsQuest app or by other approved support
channels. Consent given on the public request form or the ROI page is specific to that request or question and does not enable shop-wide texting; authenticated
Settings consent applies only to the separately confirmed recipient and the saved shop notification trigger.
Each new recipient requires separate consent, and an opted-out number cannot be re-enabled in Settings.
Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchase or of submitting a PartsQuest request.
Calls, AI, And Recording
PartsQuest places automated, AI-assisted phone calls to supplier and dealer parts departments to work accepted
tickets. When asked who is calling, the calling agent identifies itself as PartsQuest, the shop's parts
sourcing tool. When asked whether it is a person, an AI, or an automated system, it says it is an AI assistant
calling on the shop's behalf. Calls are placed during the called business's local business hours. On a single
ticket, PartsQuest calls a given number at most three times and stops calling that number for the ticket once
the business answers about the part. After a call that gets no answer about the part, PartsQuest waits at least
30 minutes before calling that number again for the ticket, except that it may call back right away when the
business asked for more information and the shop has supplied it, or when the shop changes the search.
PartsQuest does not use automated voice calls for sales outreach and honors supplier or dealer opt-outs and do-not-call requests. PartsQuest may audio-record
the supplier and dealer calls it places, and records only where the law that applies to the call permits a
participant to record without the consent of every participant; PartsQuest is a participant in every call it
places. Where the applicable jurisdiction is unknown, or requires the consent of every participant, the call
is not recorded. A supplier or dealer may ask not to be recorded, after which PartsQuest does not record that
number. Recordings are used to review the quality of the calling agent, are kept for 30 days after the call
is processed and then deleted by a nightly purge, and are never sold. PartsQuest also generates and retains summaries and
structured results of those calls as described in the Privacy Policy.
AI-assisted voice or phone-system use may be restricted, paused, or changed based on law, carrier rules,
supplier opt-outs, provider performance, disclosure requirements, consent requirements, or PartsQuest quality
controls. By accepting these terms and submitting a ticket, the shop authorizes those calls on its behalf.
Account Access And Software Use
PartsQuest may provide a dashboard, request forms, result packets, supplier cards, history, billing views,
and related software features. It grants a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service
for the shop's internal operations while the account is in good standing, and may change, suspend, or
discontinue features for security, reliability, abuse prevention, legal compliance, or service improvement.
Recurring-Charge Authorization
By accepting the checkout disclosure, you authorize PartsQuest, LLC to charge the displayed monthly price
for the plan you select each month until you cancel through the Billing Portal or by emailing
support@partsquest.org. A cancellation request received
before renewal stops the next charge and takes effect at the end of the current paid period. Current-period
charges are nonrefundable except duplicate or erroneous charges or where required by law. You agree to
these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy.
Third-Party Tools And Infrastructure Changes
PartsQuest depends on third-party services for hosting, databases, payments, messaging, phone systems, AI tools,
data sources, and supplier or dealer communications. Those systems, pricing, availability, access rules, and legal
requirements can change. PartsQuest may adjust workflows, providers, features, supported call methods, or service
availability in response. PartsQuest is not responsible for shop losses, missed opportunities, customer
consequences, or third-party cost changes caused by supplier decisions, carrier rules, AI/tool changes, phone
provider changes, payment-provider changes, data-provider changes, or legal/compliance restrictions outside
PartsQuest's direct control.
Disclaimers And Liability Limits
PartsQuest provides the service and result packets as a sourcing aid for professional repair shops. To the
maximum extent allowed by law, the service is provided without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a
particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted operation, or error-free results. PartsQuest is not liable for
indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, lost-profit, lost-revenue, lost-customer, repair-delay,
vehicle-downtime, or substitute-procurement damages. To the maximum extent allowed by law, PartsQuest's total
liability for a claim is limited to the amount the shop paid PartsQuest for the affected plan period or ticket.
Shop Indemnity
The shop is responsible for the accuracy and legality of information it submits, its fitment and buying decisions,
its customer communications, and its use of supplier results. The shop agrees to defend and hold PartsQuest
harmless from claims arising from shop-provided information, unauthorized account use, misuse of result packets,
customer disputes, repair decisions, fitment decisions, ordering decisions, or violation of these terms.
Governing Law, Venue, And Changes
Oregon law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Exclusive venue lies in the state courts
of Clackamas County, Oregon, or the United States District Court for the District of Oregon, as applicable.
PartsQuest may update these Terms by posting a revised version. Continued use after an update means the shop
accepts the updated Terms.
Independence And Contact
PartsQuest, LLC is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or authorized by any OEM,
dealer group, supplier, repair network, marketplace, or warranty provider unless expressly stated in writing.
