6.Marketplace and Listings

The marketplace displays vehicles submitted by licensed dealers and private sellers. Cars4Sure does not guarantee the accuracy of listings. All listing information is provided by the seller or dealer. Inspectors may contribute reports, but these do not guarantee long-term condition. Availability, pricing, and accuracy are the responsibility of the dealer or seller.

6.1Dealer Listings

Licensed dealers must complete Cars4Sure's onboarding and verification process and execute a Dealer Marketplace Agreement before listing vehicles. Dealers are subject to the Marketplace Rules and Listing Standards, the Dealer Marketplace Agreement, and all applicable federal, state, and local laws governing motor vehicle sales, including the FTC Used Car Rule (16 CFR Part 455).

6.2Private Seller Listings

Private individuals who own a vehicle and wish to sell it may list on the Platform subject to the following conditions:

• The seller must be the titled owner of the vehicle or legally authorized to sell it on behalf of the owner
• The seller must provide accurate and complete information about the vehicle, including year, make, model, mileage, condition, title status, and any known defects, damage history, or liens
• The seller must upload real, unedited photographs of the actual vehicle
• The seller must not misrepresent the vehicle's condition, history, or legal status
• The seller must update or remove the listing within forty-eight (48) hours if the vehicle is sold or no longer available
• The seller is solely responsible for negotiating, documenting, and closing the sale directly with the buyer, including title transfer and payment
• Cars4Sure is not a party to any transaction between a private seller and a buyer, does not process payments, and has no liability for the transaction
• Private sellers who engage in a pattern of selling vehicles that suggests dealer-level activity (multiple vehicles listed in a short period) may be required to register as a dealer or have their account suspended

6.3Marketplace Rules

All dealers, sellers, and authorized agents who list vehicles on the Platform must comply with the Cars4Sure Marketplace Rules and Listing Standards, as published and amended from time to time. The Marketplace Rules are incorporated into these Terms by reference. Violations of the Marketplace Rules may result in listing removal, account suspension, or termination. By creating a dealer account or listing a vehicle, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to the Marketplace Rules.

7.Inspection Reports

Inspectors are independent contractors. They provide observations based on the time of inspection.

• Inspections do not guarantee future condition or performance
• Cars4Sure is not responsible for missed issues, defects, or changes after the inspection

Users agree not to hold Cars4Sure or its contractors liable for inspection outcomes.

8.Service Providers and Vendors

Mechanics, modification shops, insurance partners, import-export partners, and all other vendors are independent businesses.

• Cars4Sure does not supervise or control their work
• Cars4Sure is not liable for their actions, guarantees, prices, delays, or results

Any disputes must be resolved with the vendor directly.

By using the platform, you agree that:

• Data may be stored and displayed in your profile

13.Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Cars4Sure shall not be liable to you or any third party for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of or inability to use the platform, regardless of whether such damages are based on contract, tort, strict liability, or any other legal theory, and even if Cars4Sure has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Cars4Sure is a marketplace platform and is not a party to any transaction between users. Cars4Sure shall have no liability for any dispute, claim, or damage arising from any transaction between a buyer and a dealer, seller, inspector, or vendor.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In such jurisdictions, Cars4Sure's liability shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

14.Dispute Resolution

All disputes will be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in Pinellas County, Florida. No class actions are allowed. Claims must be made individually.

You may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice to legal@cars4sure.com within thirty (30) days of creating your account. See the full Dispute Resolution Policy for complete terms, procedures, and opt-out details.

Dealers and other business users with signed agreements are governed by the dispute provisions in those agreements.
