    Status:
    Resolved
    Order Time: Apr 22, 2024 Order ID: ************************ Item: *****cm 2+32GB 4Core IPS Full Touch Android Car Raido Player ********** For Corolla 2006-2013 With Wireless WiFi SWC MirrorLink Rear View GPS Navigation $124.39 Delivery guarantee states: 15-day no update refund If your package has no tracking updates for over 15 days without being delivered, you can apply for a free reshipment or refund because the package may have been lost in transit. If you do end up receiving the package after applying, you can keep it for free without needing to return it.Delivered on May 30, 2024 (More than a month later).There was no tracking updates for more than 3 weeks. Item arrived but was not operating well and had some faults after installation into vehicle (which incurred $75 labour cost).Reported issue to Temu, but they are unable to replace as seller is no longer valid. Hence, no warranty or support. Now, only option is to incur another labour charge ($75 or more) to remove the item and re-install with a newly purchased unit. Suddenly, I have to foot all these unnecesarry labour charges. According to Temu's delivery guarantee, they should have refund me for a delayed delivery item and now a faulty item. But instead I have to pay extra charges before I can get refunded.
