GoAuto.com Terms of Service
Effective Date: April 8, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of GoAuto.com (the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Site. By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement.
2. Our Services
GoAuto.com provides an online platform that allows users to search for new and used vehicles, view inventory (powered by Detroit Trading Company), read automotive articles, and submit requests for more information. These requests are forwarded to participating dealers. We do not sell vehicles ourselves — we connect you with dealers and third-party service providers.
3. User Conduct
You agree not to:
• Submit false, misleading, or inaccurate information.
• Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or to harass others.
• Interfere with the proper functioning of the Site.
• Scrape, crawl, or systematically collect content without permission.
• Violate any applicable laws or third-party rights.
4. Intellectual Property
All content on the Site, including text, images, vehicle data, and logos, is owned by GoAuto.com or our licensors (including Detroit Trading Company for inventory data). You may view and use the Site for personal, non-commercial purposes only. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or commercially exploit any content without our prior written permission.
5. Third-Party Services
The Site includes integrations with third parties, such as Detroit Trading Company for vehicle listings. When you submit a request, your information may be shared with the relevant dealer or service provider. These third parties have their own terms and privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. We are not responsible for their services, accuracy, or practices.
6. Disclaimers
The Site and all content are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, availability, or timeliness of vehicle listings, prices, or dealer information. Dealers control their own offers and inventory. We are not a party to any transaction between you and a dealer.
7. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, GoAuto.com shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Site, even if advised of the possibility. Our total liability to you shall not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).
8. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless GoAuto.com, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses arising from your use of the Site or violation of these Terms.
9. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, for any reason, without notice.
10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Site shall be resolved through binding arbitration in California, or in small claims court for qualifying claims. You agree to waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit.
11. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on this page with a new effective date. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
