“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!

Beware they don't ship your items. I paid over $200 for my hitch and they never shipped it out. I have never dealt with such a poor company. Customer service is useless.

Get ready to speak with someone over seas who had no knowledge of the auto industry and doesn't care about you or your order.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid this company - parts never arrived, no communication regarding missed order and awful customer service

Products used:
Various car parts

I found a rear drivers side tail cover for a ford focus on ebay for $19.61 with free shipping on ebay, but then I saw CariD.com had the same part for $18, convieniently over a dollar less then I can find it on ebay. I take it to checkout, shipping says $0.00 and my total is $18, better deal than ebay, so I hit continue and enter my payment info, and hit confirm payment, which takes me to a confirmation screen which now shows a shipping fee of $15 added, and my total is $35 after tax. I call them up to cancel, I explain the situation and that I can get the same part for less than $20 shipped on ebay, so she puts me on hold so she can try to price match, leaves me there for 15-20 minutes, then finally comes back on and says she sees it for $25 on ebay and thats the lowest they'll go, I tell her, no, I'm looking right at it for $19.61 shipped on ebay, after being rude to me and giving me back talk, I give her the seller name and the listing info, she points out that its a different brand than the one on there site, which is true, but I say I don't care about brand names, I care that its over $15 cheaper for the same part, which is really mostly a cosmetic anyway, and she finally agrees to give me a refund, but proceeds to tell me, it's going to take over a week to get the money back on my card... Really? Why? Probably a last ditch effort to get you to pay the higher price that they baited and switched you for to begin with. They Probably get enough people that can't afford to buy the part elsewhere for $20 AND be without the $35 for a week, and so just agree to pay the $25 instead of waiting for the refund, I almost considered. But being put on hold that long by a rude customer service rep is bad enough to make me take my business elsewhere, but sketchy bait n switch shipping fees? Excessive refund times? Nope, I'll never use them again, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

Long story so I'm not gonna explain it Because it's too much but I've been in law-enforcement and still am in law-enforcement I was a police officer for 13 years I was in Military for six years this place after I found out what it is it's a small little call center that treats you like crap once you buy the item this is the worst third-party middleman scam I've ever seen in my life they don't have parts there they buy from distributors they might call O'Reilly's to get your part stay away from these people if you want anything from duraflex. All they do is called extreme dimensions that's a distributor for duraflex there in California they'll take your order directly and you'll get it cheaper in the shipping will be cheaper going directly through them this place is a scam they're trying to make me wait 10 days for a refund this is the trashiest place I've ever seen in my life I am currently working on having open
Investigation brought on these guys
For deceptive buisness practices. How they operate is so outside of legal
With Being lied to saying it's coming directly from them then being told they have had to go through a distributor I called the distributor myself and found out that they were just a middleman it's really a pathetic set up they make it look like it's an Amazon where they might have a distribution center somewhere they don't have that these people got very small small employees if you want to do good business don't try this place

STILL no resolution to my on going problems with CARiD! I regret making a purchase with them as their ad was very misleading (listed with Big Brake Kits yet was nothing more than stock with painted calipers) on top of that, they sent me a defective product which is IMPOSSIBLE to know unless you install it and drive the vehicle!

I paid my mechanic to install the new breaks (I never saw the "misleading ad" purchased "big brake kit" as they were in the box when the mechanic got them. My mechanic works on several of my vehicles so he works on them as parts come in.

After I saw the finished product I knew it was a huge waste of money as all I needed to do what spend 6 bucks on caliper paint and I would get the same results. CARiD is doing NOTHING for me and now that the passenger side rear caliper is defective, they will not replace it unless I pay my mechanic to lift the vehicle, remove the tire, disassemble the entire brake, remove the caliper, TAKE A PICTURE of it, REASSEMBLE the brakes and send the picture to CARDiD! At this point they "say" they will send a replacement part for which I have to take the vehicle back to my mechanic and pay MORE labor to have it swapped out again!

What a pathetic joke of a company!

Carid C. – CARiD Rep

Dear Rob,

I feel truly sorry about the defective item you received. We are ready to take it back for either a refund or replacement. The pictures were requested in this case to submit a proper request to the manufacturer and avoid additional time spent on shipping the item back for inspection. Having the picture showing the issue, we will be able to request the return paperwork for defective product and process a refund or replacement in short time.

I would also need to admit that we never advertised the kit as "Big brake kit". The product name from the website is "Power Stop® - 1-Click Z23 Evolution Sport Drilled and Slotted Brake Kit with Calipers". You may check this on the product page.

Considering the fact that you have refused to provide us with any additional information, we have offered a compensation to you, so you could repair the item locally.

Please check you email box and get back to us with your opinion.

Sincerely,
Consumer Relations Team at CARID.com
