1. Website Operator
This website is operated by:
Petrolex Auto Imports Limited8 Dunrobin Avenue
Kingston 8, St. Andrew, Jamaica
Telephone: (876) 331-4721
Email: info@lexautoimports.com
2. Vehicle Information
Petrolex makes reasonable efforts to ensure that vehicle descriptions, photographs, mileage, specifications, pricing, availability and other information are accurate.
For imported or auction vehicles, certain information may originate from suppliers, auction houses, inspectors or exporters.
Vehicle availability is subject to change until a vehicle has been secured or purchased.
3. Vehicle Orders
Submitting an order through the website does not necessarily mean that a particular vehicle has been purchased or reserved.
An order becomes binding when the applicable agreement has been accepted and the required payment or deposit has been received and confirmed, subject to any additional conditions stated in the agreement.
4. Imported and Special-Order Vehicles
Customers ordering vehicles from overseas acknowledge that vehicle sourcing may involve Japanese auction houses, exporters and other suppliers.
Availability, auction results, shipping schedules, inspection timelines and port processing may be outside Petrolex’s direct control.
If a selected auction vehicle is not successfully purchased, Petrolex may work with the customer to locate another vehicle meeting the agreed specifications and budget.
5. Pricing
Prices may be displayed in Jamaican Dollars (JMD), United States Dollars (USD), or another clearly identified currency.
A quotation should specify what is included in the stated price.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, customers should not assume that an advertised or estimated price includes every third-party charge, government fee, tax, customs charge, port charge, registration cost, insurance cost, or other expense.
The applicable written quotation, invoice, order form, or sales agreement controls the final transaction.
6. Deposits
Vehicle orders may require a deposit.
For transactions subject to Petrolex’s 30% deposit arrangement, the required deposit will be calculated against the applicable agreed vehicle price unless a different amount or payment schedule is stated in the customer’s written agreement.
Deposits may be used toward vehicle acquisition and associated transaction costs once an order has been authorized.
7. Cancellation and Refunds
Cancellation and refund rights depend on the stage of the transaction and the customer’s specific sales, consignment, or import agreement.
Where Petrolex has already purchased, secured, bid on, shipped, or incurred non-recoverable expenses for a vehicle at the customer’s authorization, some or all amounts paid may become non-refundable or subject to applicable cancellation/restocking charges as provided in the signed agreement.
Any 20% restocking/default charge applies only where it forms part of the customer’s applicable agreement and is legally enforceable.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or restrict rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable Jamaican law.
8. Payment
Payments must be made through payment methods officially authorized by Petrolex, which may include:
- Bank transfer
- Cash
- PayPal
- Other approved electronic payment methods
A payment is not considered cleared until Petrolex confirms receipt of cleared funds.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that payment details and transaction references are correct.
9. Payment Security and Fraud Prevention
Petrolex may verify transactions before accepting or processing an order.
Suspicious, unauthorized, incomplete, or potentially fraudulent transactions may be delayed, declined, or referred for additional verification.
10. Shipping and Delivery
Estimated shipping and arrival dates are estimates rather than guarantees unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing.
Delays may arise from circumstances including vessel schedules, port congestion, weather, customs inspections, supplier delays, regulatory requirements, or other events outside Petrolex’s reasonable control.
Customers will be provided with available shipping updates where applicable.
11. Vehicle Inspection and Condition
Used vehicles naturally vary in condition according to age, mileage and previous use.
Where available, customers should review vehicle photographs, inspection information and auction documentation before authorizing a purchase.
Minor cosmetic wear consistent with the age and mileage of a used vehicle does not necessarily constitute a defect.
12. Trade-In Vehicles
Where Petrolex accepts a trade-in, the customer represents that they are legally entitled to transfer the vehicle and must disclose any applicable lien, loan, encumbrance, accident history, material defect, or other relevant ownership issue.
A trade-in valuation may be revised where previously undisclosed material information or defects are discovered before completion of the transaction, subject to the applicable agreement and law.
13. Customer Responsibilities
Customers are responsible for providing accurate:
- Personal information
- Contact information
- Vehicle specifications
- Identification documents
- Payment information
- Trade-in information
- Delivery and registration information
Petrolex will not be responsible for delays or additional expenses directly resulting from materially inaccurate information supplied by a customer.
14. Electronic Documents and Communications
Customers consent, where permitted by law, to receiving quotations, invoices, receipts, agreements, order confirmations, shipment updates and other communications electronically.
Electronic records may be retained as part of Petrolex’s official transaction records.
15. Website Accounts and Security
Where customer accounts are available, customers are responsible for safeguarding their login credentials.
Customers should immediately notify Petrolex if they believe their account has been accessed without authorization.
16. Intellectual Property
Petrolex’s website design, company branding, logos, graphics, original photographs, documents and other proprietary content may not be copied, reproduced, modified, distributed, or commercially exploited without authorization, except where permitted by law.

17. Website Availability
Petrolex may modify, suspend, update or discontinue website functions where reasonably necessary for maintenance, security, upgrades, business changes or other operational reasons.
We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of every online service.
18. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Petrolex will not be liable for indirect or consequential losses arising solely from circumstances outside its reasonable control.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.
19. Force Majeure
Petrolex will not be responsible for failure or delay caused by events beyond its reasonable control, which may include natural disasters, severe weather, war, civil disturbance, government action, port closure, shipping disruption, industrial action, major technology failures, or other comparable events.
