Our warranty covers any damaged, defective, or incorrect parts sent to customers. We offer a "parts only" warranty, and the warranty period can be confirmed with the sales agent or on the invoice at the time of purchase. If no warranty is mentioned or informed by the sales agent, the part will be sold in "as is" condition, and Quality Auto Salvage will not be responsible for the performance of the part once it is delivered.
NO LABOR CHARGES are covered for any part sold by Quality Auto Salvage. In the event a part is found to be defective, incorrect, or damaged, we will first attempt to replace it. If a replacement is not available, we will issue a refund for the total amount charged. If another order is made prior to the return of the first part, payment for the second part will be required, and the initial order will be refunded once the part is returned. Return shipping costs will not be reimbursed to customers. When contacting Quality Auto Salvage for a return, please provide a detailed explanation as to why the part is being returned, along with pictures or a diagnostic report from an authorized mechanic, garage, or dealership.
If a part is returned that does not fit the specifications listed in the order or invoice as placed by the customer, Quality Auto Salvage reserves the right to apply a 25% restocking fee and withhold shipping amounts both ways from the refund.
Quality Auto Salvage is not responsible for items delivered to the address given at the time of purchase according to tracking information but not taken into possession by the customer.
Items ordered for "testing purposes only" or ordered incorrectly to check interchangeability by the customer will not be available for return. We advise customers to verify the actual part needed with a mechanical or body expert (mechanic) before ordering. While we ensure we send out an exact matching part as our customers have in their vehicle, combined with our years of experience, it is beneficial for our customers to conduct necessary research before ordering. Items returned after the warranty period expires will not be refunded and will be returned to customers. Parts must be received within 30 days of the original shipment delivery date to be accepted after Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) is approved.
