5.1 Accurate Information: The customer is responsible for providing correct and complete details about their vehicle and its condition. Failure to disclose necessary information may result in additional charges or refusal of service without a refund.
5.2 Driver Coordination: Once a driver has been assigned, it is the customer’s responsibility to maintain communication and follow any instructions given for the service.
