SPECIFICATIONS, PERFORMANCE: Opus IVS reserves the right to change its products and its specifications at any time without notice. Specifications, depictions, and descriptions in any picture, catalogue, brochure, or other literature are subject to change without notice and do not constitute a sample, representation, warranty, or guaranty, and do not become a part of any PSA or of the purchase of the Opus IVS Device(s) and the Opus IVS Services.
LIMITED WARRANTIES: Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the PSA, including these Terms and Conditions, Opus IVS extends the following limited warranties:
OPUS IVS DEVICE(S): Opus IVS warrants to the Customer, only when the original purchaser, that the Opus IVS Device, excluding cables, shall be free from substantial defect in material or workmanship under normal use and service for the period of two (2) years after delivery to the Customer location. Opus IVS’s obligation under this warranty is limited solely to the repair or replacement, at Opus IVS’s option, of the Opus IVS Device or any component part thereof. This warranty is not transferable. If Customer selects an Opus IVS monthly subscription agreement, Opus IVS shall provide a universal coverage warranty, guaranteeing that Customer will always have an operating device in new or like-new condition (as determined in Opus IVS’s discretion) for the term of the subscription agreement.
OPUS IVS SERVICES: Opus IVS warrants that, where Opus IVS Services are completed on a vehicle using the Opus IVS Device, and where Customer’s shop technicians have followed service and repair recommendations provided on the scan report from Opus IVS, the vehicle will be free of Diagnostic Trouble Codes (“DTCs”), with the exceptions of certain manufacturer-dependent codes, which can be converted from “Active” to “History,” but require a pre-determined number of keystrokes and/or miles driven to be cleared. Where it is determined that a DTC reoccurs or re-illuminates a malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after repairs have been completed and the vehicle is returned to its titled owner, Opus IVS will re-scan the vehicle at no charge and provide a rental vehicle reimbursement on approved claims of up to $25.00 per day for a maximum of three (3) days. In addition, if a vehicle is more than 25 miles from the vehicle repair facility and requires being towed, Opus IVS will provide a towing reimbursement on approved claims of up to $50.00 in total. This warranty is effective for the earlier of three (3) business days or 250 miles driven after delivery of the vehicle to its titled owner, so long as the vehicle is returned to the vehicle repair facility that performed the work within said period or miles, provided that this warranty will be extended for the number of days, as determined in Opus IVS’s reasonable discretion, that a force majeure event (defined below) prevents or interrupts the return of the vehicle to the vehicle repair shop. This warranty is limited to DTCs that were missed in the original scan and does in no way guarantee the parts or labor performed by the vehicle repair facility. This warranty is only for the Customer who initiated the original service request with Opus IVS and the titled owner of the vehicle that was serviced. This warranty only applies if the “Request for Service” (“RFS”) submitted by Customer to Opus IVS is accurate and contains complete information, including providing all required vehicle information. Opus IVS is not responsible for any failed or ineffectual Opus IVS Services due to an RFS containing inaccurate or incomplete information. This warranty is not transferable. Other than this warranty, the titled owner of the vehicle that was serviced will not be deemed a third-party beneficiary of any other terms and conditions of the PSA.
EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES OPUS IVS MAKES IN THIS SECTION 4, OPUS IVS MAKES NO WARRANTY TO THE OPUS IVS DEVICES OR OPUS IVS SERVICES. OPUS IVS EXPLICITLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER STATUTORY, ORAL, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Customer waives any rights under the warranties set forth in this Section 4, and Opus IVS shall have no obligations therefore, if any payment owing to Opus IVS remains unpaid or if Customer’s account with Opus IVS is in arrears. Product or service failures or defects caused by accidental damage, negligence, failure to maintain, unreasonable use, misuse (whether intentional or unintentional), abuse of the Opus IVS Device or the Opus IVS Services by Customer or the end user are excluded from the warranties in this Section 4. Such warranties shall be null and void for any Opus IVS Device (including any component part) or Opus IVS Service, which is modified or altered in any way by any person not authorized by Opus IVS. Opus IVS is not responsible for, and will not pay for, work performed, or repairs made by any other party unless prior written approval is obtained from Opus IVS.
WARRANTY CLAIM PROCEDURE: To initiate a warranty claim, Customer shall contact Opus IVS Customer Service using the toll-free phone number 1-888-486-1166. Notice of any warranty claim must be received by Opus IVS within the warranty coverage time specified under Section 4 above or otherwise be barred. Repairs or replacements for qualifying warranty claims will be made within a reasonable time following the Customer’s notice. Opus IVS will ship a pre-printed UPS or other appropriate return label to Customer and Customer agrees to return the non-functioning Opus IVS Device to Opus IVS’s address with original case.

The remedies of Customer set forth in these Terms and Conditions are Customer’s exclusive remedies. THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF OPUS IVS FOR ANY CLAIM OF ANY KIND FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE RESULTING FROM, ARISING OUT OF, OR CONNECTED WITH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OR FROM THE PERFORMANCE OR BREACH THEREOF, OR FROM THE MANUFACTURE, SALE, DELIVERY, RESALE, REPAIR, OR USE OF OPUS IVS DEVICE OR OPUS IVS SERVICE, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, INDEMNITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE PRICE ALLOCABLE TO THE OPUS IVS DEVICE (INCLUDING ANY COMPONENT PART) AND/OR OPUS IVS SERVICE WHICH GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM. IN NO EVENT SHALL OPUS IVS BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER OR ANY OTHER PARTY FOR COMPENSATORY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR ANY SIMILAR DAMAGES, WHETHER FORESEEABLE OR NOT, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO ANY DEFECT OR FAILURE OF THE OPUS IVS DEVICE AND/OR OPUS IVS SERVICE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, OR LOSS BY REASON OF SHUTDOWN OF FACILITIES.
SETOFF: Neither Customer nor any of its affiliates shall have any right to set off claims against Opus IVS or any of its affiliates for the amounts owed under the PSA or otherwise.
WAIVER OF INSURED CLAIMS AND SUBROGATION: Customer and Opus IVS, for themselves, for all other insured under any applicable insurance policy, and for their insurers under any applicable insurance policy, hereby waive any right of subrogation against each other and against their respective employees, agents, officers, suppliers, and affiliates, to the fullest extent permitted by each such policy.

Any prior course of dealings or usage of the trade are excluded unless they are expressly incorporated in the PSA. In the event that one or more of the provisions of the PSA shall be found by a competent court of law to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not be affected thereby, and the parties agree such provisions shall be reformed by such court of law to make such provisions enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Interpretation and enforcement of any PSA and the performance thereof will be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without reference to the rules of any jurisdiction concerning conflicts of law and without application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

TEXT MESSAGING (SMS) PROGRAM – SMS TERMS:
Section 15 last updated: [PUBLICATION DATE]
(a) Applicability. This Section 15 governs Opus IVS Scan Alerts, the scan completion text message program (the “SMS Program”), and applies to any person who opts in to the SMS Program (“you”), whether or not you are a party to a PSA. As to the SMS Program, this Section 15 controls over any conflicting provision of these Terms and Conditions. If you are not a party to a PSA, this Section 15 is the only part of these Terms and Conditions that applies to your participation in the SMS Program, except that capitalized terms that this Section 15 uses but does not define have the meanings given in ACCEPTANCE AND TERMS. Requests to opt out of the SMS Program are not subject to the written-notice requirements in the GENERAL section of these Terms and Conditions (Section 14(b)).
(b) Program description. When you select Text as your preferred contact method on a remote diagnostic scan work order in the Opus IVS Connect application, Opus IVS may send one automated, informational text message from an Opus IVS toll-free number to the mobile number you provide, letting you know that the scan for that work order is complete and the Opus IVS Device can be disconnected from the vehicle. SMS Program messages are transactional and relate only to the work order for which you selected Text. Opus IVS does not send marketing or promotional messages through the SMS Program.
(c) Consent is optional. Selecting Text is not required to use Opus IVS Connect or to receive Opus IVS’s remote diagnostic scan services. Opus IVS Connect also offers Chat and Phone as contact methods, and you receive the same service whichever you choose. Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of any purchase. Enter only a mobile number that you use. By selecting Text, you confirm that you are the subscriber or an authorized user of that number.
(d) Message frequency. One message per work order for which you select Text.
(e) Message and data rates. Message and data rates may apply to messages Opus IVS sends to you and messages you send to Opus IVS. Contact your wireless provider for information about your text messaging or data plan.
(f) How to opt out. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, or QUIT to any SMS Program message. You will receive a confirmation text that you have been unsubscribed, and you will receive no further SMS Program messages at that mobile number. You may also opt out by calling Opus IVS Customer Service at 1-888-486-1166 or by any other reasonable means, and Opus IVS will honor your request promptly and in any event within 10 business days.
(g) How to opt back in. Selecting Text on a later work order does not resume SMS Program messages to a mobile number that has opted out. If you opted out by replying STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, or QUIT, the opt-out is recorded at the carrier level for the number that sends SMS Program messages, and Opus IVS cannot resume messages on your behalf; reply UNSTOP to that number to opt back in. If you opted out in any other way, call Opus IVS Customer Service at 1-888-486-1166 to opt back in. If you are not sure how your mobile number was opted out (for example, because someone else who uses it opted out), call Opus IVS Customer Service and Opus IVS will tell you which of these steps applies. Once you have opted back in, SMS Program messages can again be sent for work orders on which you select Text.
(h) What opting out affects. Opting out ends SMS Program messages to your mobile number. It does not change notifications within Opus IVS Connect or work order report emails. If you do not want text messages about a work order, choose Chat or Phone as the contact method for that work order.
(i) Shared mobile numbers. Opt-out and opt-in requests apply to a mobile number, not to an individual Opus IVS Connect account. If more than one person uses the same mobile number, opting out stops SMS Program messages for everyone who uses that number.
(j) Help. For help, reply HELP to any SMS Program message and Opus IVS will reply with how to reach Opus IVS and how to opt out. You can also use chat in Opus IVS Connect or call Opus IVS Customer Service at 1-888-486-1166.
(k) Supported carriers. SMS Program messages can be delivered to subscribers of major U.S. and Canadian wireless carriers, including AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon in the United States and Bell, Rogers and TELUS in Canada. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Message delivery depends on your wireless carrier and is not guaranteed.
(l) Privacy. Opus IVS collects your mobile number only when you voluntarily provide it on a work order. Opus IVS uses the mobile number you provide on a work order only in connection with that work order, including to contact you about it, and to keep records of text message consent and opt-outs. No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All other categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties. Opus IVS will not sell or transfer your mobile number to another party, including after you opt out. For more information, see the Opus IVS Privacy Policy.
(m) Changes. Opus IVS may update this Section 15 or discontinue the SMS Program at any time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised “Section 15 last updated” date.
