Forway Motors Specific Vehicle Purchases for Customer's Outside of Current Dealer Inventory
Forway Motors, Inc. routinely purchases vehicles based on a customer’s specific request. In the event a vehicle is purchased specifically for a customer, deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE and your deposit receipt or bill of sale or oral agreement or other purchase agreement for the vehicle will reflect this. The reason for this is that there is a cost for procuring a vehicle (auction fees, bank fees, cleaning fees, transport fees, etc.) and a cost to dispose of a vehicle should the purchase not be completed. In the event the deposit exceeds any damages (costs incurred in procuring and reselling the vehicle) incurred by Forway Motors, Inc., plus a $300 flat charge, Forway Motors, Inc. may in its discretion return any remaining funds, but is not required to do so. Do not request a car to be purchased or leave a deposit for a car you do not intend to purchase and be sure that you understand the nature of the vehicle being purchase, its condition and the terms of the purchase, including taxes, registration and other associated fees prior to leaving a deposit. By leaving a deposit you are stating that you are aware of this policy in its entirety. Understand that in the situation of a specific Customer request, the vehicle, that Forway Motors is relying on you, the Customer, to complete the purchase. Only in following circumstances will your non-refundable deposit be refunded in part or in full:
- Vehicle cannot be registered (i.e. no title, vehicle will not pass inspection, etc.)
- Vehicle year make, model, options, color, mileage or general interior and exterior condition do not accurately reflect what was presented to Customer – this is to say that major items such as missing options or sever body damage exist. (A small tear in interior fabric or normal wear and tear items for used cars are NOT included in this);
- Vehicle purchase or delivery exceeds 30 days from the date of the deposit being received by Forway Motors and the delay is due to Forway Motors;
- Purchase or delivery of the vehicle is not completed due to willful negligence or willful breach by Forway Motors of the deposit or bill of sale or oral or written agreement for purchase – note that all terms related to the purchase of a vehicle will be reflected on the deposit receipt, bill of sale, or other purchase agreement;
- Sale is predicated on Forway Motors securing financing for Customer and Forway is unable to do so – note, it is expected that PRIOR to providing a deposit, Customer should be able to secure funds to complete the purchase.
