If I need a replacement part, how long does it take to ship to me?
-In the rare case that your part is defective, we can ship you out a replacement auto part the same day in exchange for a temporary deposit. This deposit is to ensure that you send back your defective part and is fully refunded once it arrives back at our warehouse. We will also provide you with a free return shipping label to get the other part back to us. More Info

What is a Refundable Core Deposit?
A “core” is what the industry calls your old defective part. We want cores to rebuild, recycle and/or resell.

Many of our parts have refundable core deposits. This means you pay a temporary deposit at the time you buy a part. Then, we fully refund the deposit once you send us your old part.

Here's how it works:

• You purchase the part you need to fix your vehicle.
• You pay a temporary refundable core deposit. Don’t worry, you’ll get this back!.
• You ship us your old part (the core).
• When we receive your old part (the core), we refund you the full amount.

If you have any questions about core deposits, please feel free to give us a call at (888)-907-7225 and we will be happy to assist you.

How long do I have to send back my core?
-Cores must be returned within 90 days from purchase to ensure full credit.
