Return and Warranties
Satisfaction Guarantee
We value you as a customer and will make every effort to make you happy. There are only so many Volkswagen owners out there and we do not want to lose you as a customer. If for any reason our product does not meet your expectations, we’ll try to quickly resolve any issue to your satisfaction through technical assistance, exchanges, credit or refund. That said, we do have to have some common sense rules and provisions to ensure we can stay in business. If you have an issue, please review the information below and call us so we can resolve the problem.
Damage

What is a Core and a Core Charge?
Cores are the used parts that may be returned for credit when purchasing rebuildable parts. New, used, and remanufactured products may have a core charge. We send cores to our rebuilders to create a remanufactured part. Having a core charge on most rebuildable parts helps us keep our prices low, is a great way to recycle, and ensures there is product available for the next customer. If a core deposit is shown, this charge will be added to your total at the time of sale but is refundable upon the return of your rebuildable original part. Cores are valuable to us; we need them back on a timely basis to be rebuilt so we have product to sell to the next customers.
Core Return Policy
- Cores must be drained of all fluid or the core credit will not be refunded.
- Cores must be returned within 30 days to receive core credit.
- All cores must be the exact equal of the part purchased
- Cores must be complete, assembled, unmodified, and in rebuildable condition to receive full credit.
- Cores must be returned in the same box your new/remanufactured part came in. This applies especially to alternators, starters, Bosch parts, brake calipers and steering racks. (If your part came in a generic brown box don’t worry it.)
- Once accepted for return, cores returned to Parts Place are thrown into a bin for rebuilding and become generic. A specific core cannot be returned to a customer for any reason.
- Core return shipping charges are the responsibility of the customer and are not refundable.

Warranty Legalese, Small Print, Etc
- Products damaged as a result of abuse, misuse, neglect, accident, off road use, improper installation or use for any purpose other than its intended purpose will not be covered by the warranty. The warranty does NOT extend to or apply to any unit which has been repaired or altered.
- Parts Place, Inc. maximum liability shall not in any case exceed the purchase price for the products purchased from Parts Place and claimed to be defective.
- The warranty does not cover shipping charges, labor expenses, towing expenses, rental car expenses, ripped shirts, or any other incidental costs, real or imagined.

- We cannot ship out a replacement part until we have received the potentially defective part and confirmed it is in fact defective and covered under the warranty. If an immediate replacement part is required before the warranty claim can be processed it will need to be purchased prior to shipping. A credit will be issued once the defective part has been received and the warranty claim approved. If the original part was not defective and therefore the warranty claim was not approved; the part will be returned to the customer with no credit being issued.
