Road Tested Parts Limited Warranty Terms
Your recycled part shall be covered by this limited warranty unless specifically excluded in writing at the time of sale. This warranty applies to the original purchaser of the part for 90 days or longer if an extended warranty is purchased. Sheet metal has a limited lifetime replacement warranty for rust-through corrosion. Road Tested Parts must be notified immediately if any defect is discovered during the warranty period. Any repairs or work performed must be authorized before work is started. Any repair, (including but limited to removing the part), that is initiated without authorization will void the warranty.
Transportation expenses on parts that are being returned are excluded from the warranty. Road Tested parts reserves the right to repair, replace, or refund the purchase price of any part at its discretion. Any Improper use, abuse including but not limited to RACING, PULLING, overheating or low oil in engines or transmissions, neglect, careless handling, damage as a result of improper installation, modification, or repair will void this warranty. Existing problems with the vehicle that will cause damage to the recycled part will also void the warranty. Labor cost for removing and replacing the part or transferring parts from the original part to the replacement part is excluded from this warranty unless a labor warranty is purchased at the time of sale. Labor warranty payout and part replacement is limited to twice. Upon third failure a refund will be initiated.
The warranty period on any part starts at the time of sale, not upon installation. The liability and obligation of Road Tested Parts under this warranty shall not include any inconvenience, transportation, towing, downtime, direct, indirect, or consequential damage, or delay resulting from any defect. This warranty is in lieu of any warranty expressed or implied. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and any cause of action must be filed in Macoupin County, Illinois.
