Terms of Use

Last updated: September 29, 2026

These Terms of Use apply to pluginparents.com (the “Site”), operated by Plugin Parents (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Information Only, Not Professional Advice

Everything on the Site, including articles, buying guides, fit tests, photos, measurements and product recommendations, is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not professional, safety, mechanical, electrical, legal or medical advice, and it is not a substitute for the instructions provided by vehicle and product manufacturers or for help from a qualified professional.

Always Follow Manufacturer Instructions

Always install, use and maintain your vehicle and any product exactly as directed by the manufacturer, including the Tesla Owner’s Manual and each product’s instructions, labels and warnings. If anything on the Site differs from the manufacturer’s instructions, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Car seats: Our car seat content describes our own experience and research. It is not installation instructions. Always follow both the car seat manufacturer’s instructions and your vehicle owner’s manual, and have your installation checked by a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST).

Charging and electrical work: Home charging equipment should be installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with local codes and permit requirements.

Fit and compatibility: Our fit observations reflect the specific vehicle, model year, trim and configuration we tested. Your vehicle or product may differ. Confirm compatibility with the manufacturer or seller before you buy or install anything.

Your Responsibility and Assumption of Risk

You are solely responsible for your own decisions, purchases, installations and use of any product or information found on the Site. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you use the Site and act on its content at your own risk.

Accuracy and Changes to Content

Vehicles, software and products change often. We work to keep our content accurate and current, but we do not guarantee that any information on the Site is complete, accurate or up to date, and some content may become outdated after it is published. We may update, change or remove any content at any time without notice.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations of liability, so some of these limitations may not apply to you.
