The customer acknowledges having been informed, at the time of the call for service at night or on Sundays or holidays, of the geographic coverage of this service and of the invoicing and payment conditions for the services.

9. Warranty - Liability

9.1 Service warranty:

9.1.1 Repairs and replacements carried out by Speedy Glass® are guaranteed for life against defects resulting from a defective seal, leak, whistling during or after the provision of service. This warranty can only be activated by the presentation of the invoice for the contested service or the attestation of warranty issued by Speedy Glass® and shall otherwise be declared ineligible.
9.1.2 The warranty is excepted:

  • If Speedy Glass® is not the supplier of the product
  • In the event of wear, corrosion or aging of the materials
  • If the alleged defect results from an act or omission of the customer (including, among other things, failure to maintain, modification or unusual use) or of a third party (including, among other things, a repair or subsequent service by a third party), an accident or any cause unrelated to the replacement service.

9.1.3 The warranty thus granted is strictly limited to:

  • A new installation by Speedy Glass®
  • If applicable, the replacement of products damaged through defective installation or repair.

9.1.4 In all cases, Speedy Glass® reserves the option, especially in the event of the unavailability of a product, to limit the warranty to the reimbursement of the installation and the product damaged through defective installation or repair, to the exclusion of any other compensation. Such reimbursement shall be based on the price of the services or damaged products on the invoice initially issued by Speedy Glass®.

9.2 Product warranty

9.2.1 Products are guaranteed for one year from the time of delivery against all manufacturing defects reported in writing to Speedy Glass®. No warranty shall be granted for normal use or corrosion, abnormal use of the products, deterioration resulting from an accident, negligence, failure to upkeep or maintain, caused by a third party or, more generally, resulting from an event beyond the control of Speedy Glass®.

9.2.2 This warranty is strictly limited, at the sole discretion of Speedy Glass®, to the replacement or reimbursement of the product recognized as defective, within the limit of the amount actually paid to Speedy Glass® for this product. This compensation is exclusive of any other compensation whatsoever.

9.3 Insofar as the sale of the products is subject to the provisions of the Consumer Protection Act either in view of its object or the status of the customer, it is further stipulated that these provisions cannot deprive the customer of the legal guarantees provided for under this Act.

10. Protection of personal data

Personal data received from the customer is required to provide services, issue invoices and, if applicable, have costs covered by the customer's auto glass insurance. This information (except for bank card numbers) is processed by computer and transmitted to the appropriate Speedy Glass® department. The customer agrees for this data to be used and kept by Speedy Glass® and its service providers and subcontractors for administrative purposes, in order to generate statistical reports, conduct satisfaction surveys for the purpose of improving the quality of its services, and carry out marketing operations. To the extent permitted by law, the customer has the right to access and correct his or her personal data. This right can be exercised by contacting Customer Service at the number or address listed above.

11. Trusts and jurisdiction

In the event that a dispute cannot be amicably resolved, the dispute will be submitted exclusively to the court of competent jurisdiction in the District of Montreal, Province of Quebec. However, if the customer is a consumer who is not acting in a professional capacity, the rules of legal competency shall apply.
