a.

b. Services & Repairs shall include only the parts and labor required to carry out the repair or maintenance of the Vehicle and/or the parts and labor required to service the vehicle for the service requested and referred to in the initial estimate (the “Quote Invoice”).

The customer will be notified of any additional charge in an amount higher than $50.00 before the relevant work is carried out.
c. Miami Engines reserves the right, before the commencement of the Services & Repairs, to notify Customer of an immediate increase in the Services & Repairs estimate where this results from an increase in the cost of parts or other charges beyond Miami Engines' reasonable control. In the event of an increase to the Quote, Invoice Customer will have the right to cancel at any time prior to commencement of the Services & Repairs. Once the deposit has been made by Customer under the Quote Invoice, and access to the Vehicle provided, the Quote Invoice estimate will be deemed accepted, and then, unless additional or different work is agreed upon with Customer, Miami Engines will carry out the Services & Repairs as defined in the Quote Invoice. If any additional services are requested or needed by Customer and Miami Engines agrees to such additional services, Miami Engine will provide an Additional Quote Invoice reflecting the agreement between Miami Engines and Customer as to the additional Services and repairs requested and the costs associated. Customer shall object to any Additional Quote Invoice or its content within 24 hours from receipt or the Additional Quote Invoice will be deemed accepted by Customer.
