Returns Policy
Contact us to arrange for any returns
IF THE REASON FOR THE RETURN IS DUE TO AN ERROR ON OUR PART:
- Note: We do not pay for shipping replacement parts but will refund original shipping for parts shipped in error, damaged, lost etc. Upgrading shipping is available but is the responsibility of the buyer.
- You received the wrong part (AKA mispicked part): If we send you something other than what you ordered. Of course, we pay to bring it back and send you the right one at our expense.
NOTE: Subaru part numbers do change (supersede) from time to time, in these cases, we may send you a different number than your order but the part will be the same (previous or new/current part number). The procedure is as follows: First, we will send you a UPS return label so you can return the mispicked part. You can choose from the following on how and when to receive the correct part
1) Once the part arrives here we will ship the replacement.
2) You can place a new order for the replacement part and once the mispicked part arrives here we refund the price of the part and its associated original shipping charges.
- You received a damaged part Every order we ship has insurance through Extend. When your order is shipped you will receive an email with all the details on how to file a claim. If you don't have the email, please email us and we can provide you the link to file a claim and your contract number. The claim is paid directly to you via a virtual credit card which you can replace your order. The majority of claims are paid immediately, some instances do require a representative to review but are usually resolved within 24 hours.
- You received a defective part WARRANTY: If a part is defective the Subaru warranty is 12 months/unlimited miles (whichever comes first) from the date of purchase. If a part is defective it can be warrantied at any Subaru dealer. Bring the part and your invoice to a dealer and the dealer must do a spare part, over-the-counter warranty. Some dealers will try to tell you they only cover parts they sell, this is not true. This assumes the part is truly defective and not damaged or faulty due to installation error etc. If you want us to warranty the part you will need to place an order for the replacement part and then ship the defective part back. We do not pay shipping to and from on defective parts since they can be warrantied at local Subaru dealers coast to coast.
