General Warranty Policies

PartsAmerica.com will pass on to its customers each manufacturer’s standard limited warranty, if any, for parts.

Warranty return value will be based on the terms of the manufacturer warranty. In some cases, it will be prorated based on the length of use and will be less than original purchase price. Return value will be credited to the credit card used to make the original purchase.

Warranties listed herein only apply to the original purchaser for private, non-commercial use, and only to the vehicle in which the product was originally installed and/or used within.

Warranties are limited to the retail price paid for the product. NEITHER WARRANTOR NOR MANUFACTURER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, INDIRECT AND SPECIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM DEFECTS IN THE PRODUCT. This warranty does not cover miscellaneous expenses for removal, installation, service, towing or down time, nor does it cover material, labor, or additional parts required for replacement or repair of damages caused by abuse (including fire or wreckage), misuse, neglect, or failure to follow manufacture’s operating and /or installation instructions.

If a product you purchased through PartsAmerica.com fails during the warranty period, you may receive an adjustment by returning the product to PartsAmerica.com or any of our affiliated retail locations with your receipt. To receive the adjustment, all terms of the warranty must be met.

The Terms and Conditions of Use shall apply to all warranty claims made hereunder.
