      Return Request Received


      You are receiving this e-mail, because one of the following pertains to your order.


      You applied for an *** number to return a part.
      You returned your order without an *** number. (An *** number is automatically issued on receipt of your return.)
      A claim was filed with the shipper on your lost, stolen, missing, or damaged part.


      You will receive another e-mail in 2-3 business days, which will include a return authorization number and complete return shipping instructions.


      If you have already returned the product without an *** number, you can disregard the return shipping instructions, as we have forwarded the return to the manufacturer for you. The *** e-mail is for your records only and is used to track the credit to your account with out an *** number, you MUST call our Returns Team and inform them. Your credit for your return will be delayed as the *** # is used to quickly process returns and without the number it takes longer to match the part to you, our customer. (Calling our team gives us the chances to find your return sooner).
      All orders returned without an *** number take approximately 6 weeks to process if the return is located.


      If a claim was filed with the shipping company ***** DHL, Fed Ex) you can disregard the return shipping instructions, as the package is either in transit to the warehouse (damaged orders) or is currently being investigated (lost, stolen, missing). The *** e-mail is for your records only and is used to track the credit to your account.


      If you do not receive the *** e-mail in 4 business days, please e-mail

      I purchased a gasket by mistake and immediately cancelled my order. They immediately took money out of my account and said they would cancel my order and refund my money pending approval. I have spoken with three people at customer service today,all of whom said that they had resolved the issue. I have just received an email from Fed ex saying that the part is about to ship and gave me a tracking number. I don't want this part, I just want my money returned to me.

      I bought a strut and was defective they did not want to give me a replacement or a refund, which I had only bought 3 months prior to the installation to it. It went bad the same day it was installed. It took several emails to try to resolve it and they kept lying and lying. I told them I just wanted a replacement which they said they had none so I ordered one from ***** **** went thru carports and they send me a strut that they said they never had and would take months to get. That's consumer sales fraud and warranty fraud. I would like the original $300 dollars I paid because I know they will never honor the entire $ struts that I bought with a lifetime warranty.
