“Trailer mirrors”

Douglas G.
9/29/24

The mirrors did not stay on the self adhesive foot pads and after you get the mirror in the proper position you have to crank them down really tight and once you want to release the tension you end up using a large screw driver to pry them loose-don't know how long they will last under that condition-second time I have used them-quite pricy-I like them when in use.

“No help whatsoever”

Ordered part. Didn't fit. CARiD says it's correct, but it's not. Wanted to return for full refund but was told about restocking fee and shipping fee, basically only getting $10 back on a $60 part that clearly did not fit...never again!

Bought a set of Spyder head light, called CARid several times over 3 month asking technical question before I bought! After every question answered the sales person would then ask me to place a order, like dealing with a car salesman. Answer question then try to close customer. Getting my Credit card was the most important thing to the sales person! Incredible, was never told that the headlamps were illegal to run due to them having a slight tint. I drive a Benz E 350 not doubt it was going on the public HWY. Never thought to ask because the web site stated the headlamps met ALL DOT required regulation and the hook was I would get EXPERT help from CARId... Call SPYDER Auto parts got a worse run around, all I was looking for was a exchange not a refund. Was told by spyder it was CARiD fault Im currently being told by CARiD that they are talking to SPYDER and to be patience,, so far 3 weeks and to many DIFFERENT "Customer" service emails from a half dozen different"Customer" service people... what a nightmare. Will put follow up post when this is finally finished, my suggestion is buy elsewhere. Certainly not Spyder auto and maybe not CARiD

Tip for consumers:
stay away from Spyder Auto parts and ask tons of question from CARiD

Like a lot of other victims on this site, I ordered some plastic wheel covers for my car. They arrived from "Onyx Enterprises," and at the time I was like WTF, but whatever (except now I understand after looking at Site Jabber). I had to return them because they were the wrong size, so I followed the instructions on the RMA explictly (had to pay for postage and tracking to boot) and used the box and packing materials the covers came in.

Lo and behold, I get an e-mail from CARiD saying they can't refund my purchase because the covers did not arrive in "resellable condition." The reason? There was a "scratch" on one of the wheel covers. The picture they supplied as "evidence" was absolutely laughable - I wish I could upload it. People who would complain about that "scratch" are the same kind of people who would complain about getting a brand new flatscreen TV for free, but are mad that it's last year's model.

Anyway, CARiD said there was "nothing they could do". I guaran-goddamn-tee you that those wheel covers were immediately sold to someone else, and I'll bet you they don't even notice the "scratch" and are happy with them.

Stay away at all costs! I wish I had come here before making my purchase. No other reputable seller would treat a customer this way over these particular facts.

Stay away from this company. The website is great and that is their way to get you in. There is a reason they have a rating of 23/100. I find it very unlikely that the 5 star reviews are legit. As many of the people who reviewed this company have said - they sent the wrong part! This is what they did with me. I ordered a bug shield for front of my car. The item came and it was not even close to fitting my car. The label on the box said it was a for my vehicle but a 2 years older one. I emailed them and told them it did not fit. They said it does fit and that they wanted photos proving it did not fit. First off, that is freaking weird! Anyways, I took a few photos and actually sent a video clearly showing it was not even close to fitting. It was like 6 inches short on each side and none of the holes where remotely close. They said i would get a RMA soon. About 3 days later i got one and sent it back in the original packaging wrapped the exact same way. It was very well packaged. About two weeks later i got a refund. About two weeks after that I get an email telling me the bug shield was damaged! They sent me a photo of a bug shield with a 2 inch white thin scuff on it. It looked like they had just put a white line on it using one of those pencils people use to mark tiles. It looked like it would just wipe off. Also, I have no way of knowing if that was the one i sent back. It was totally fine when i sent it back. They said they were waiting for a damage report from UPS. Three weeks later i get an email saying UPS said it was not packaged properly and that was the cause of this mysterious white pencil / crayon mark. Now, they are saying they are going to take back their money and cant accept the bug shield back and do I want it back... LOL. Why would I want it back when you sent the wrong part in the first place - clearly not made for my car. The bug shield was packaged very well and no way that happened. This company is the worst. Do not be fooled by the fancy website! Nobody knows the real stock they have. Seems they just send out random parts and when you try and send them back it starts a $#*! storm. Good luck to you all. If you choose to use them - don't say you were not warned!
