Documentation Requirements

All manufacturers require a complete description of the failure in order for warranty coverage to apply. Simply stating "doesn't work" on your correspondence is not acceptable to most manufacturers. Please provide a complete description of the failure when you request an RMA number.

Limitations on warranty replacements exist on certain types of parts including but not limited to:

Brake Pads and Rotors: Squealing/squeaking of pads and/or warping of rotors are NOT valid warranty claims unless:

1. All vehicle and brake component manufacturers' installation procedures were followed precisely.
2. The problem began IMMEDIATELY upon installation and the problem is reported and parts returned WITHIN 30 days of the original invoice date. Any brake noise or warpage that begins more than 30 days after purchase is the result of driving conditions, driving style or related parts that were not replaced at the same time.
3. Brake pads and rotors were replaced at the same time.
4. No blue discolorations are present on brake rotors. Blue discoloration on a brake rotor is always the result of excessive heat caused by excessive brake pad-to-brake rotor contact.

Core Deposits and Core Returns

Certain types of parts are available in the industry as "remanufactured" (starters, alternators). Cores are the used parts that may be returned for credit when purchasing a remanufactured part.

If a core deposit is shown, this charge will be added to your total at the time of sale but is refunded upon the return of your original part.

Received WITHIN 45 days of the original invoice date. No core deposits will be refunded for cores returned more than 45 days after the original invoice date.

All original shipping cartons and packing materials must be saved for inspection by the carrier. Discarding any of the original shipping/packing material will negate our ability to file a damaged package claim with the carrier. Any damage claim made after 15 days of delivery will be on the purchasing party as we will not be responsible for damage claims after 15 days of item being delivered.

Replacement orders shipped prior to completion of the carrier's investigation must be paid for in advance. However, upon completion of the investigation, a refund will be promptly issued. If lost parts are found and delivered, a refund will be issued once they are returned to us.

If you would rather not pay for a replacement before the completion of the investigation, we can delay shipping your no-cost replacement or issuing a refund, until the investigation is complete (or the parts have been found and returned to us).
