      Customer service is our top priority, and outline provided by Mr. ***** does not align with the experience we expect to provide each customer. We are investigating the communication breakdown, to determine how we can improve.

      While our attempts to contact Mr. ***** have been unsuccessful, a full refund was issued for this part on 02-28-25.

      After internal review, there was a breakdown in communication between the receiving location and salesperson regarding this refund. This has been addressed and corrected with those involved.  A manager reached out to ******* as soon as this was brought to our attention, but was unable to reach him.  A full refund was processed on January 8th.

      Gave me the wrong part and will not replace it with the correct part. They asked me to drive 2 hours there to return the part for a refund then 2 hours home. When I asked if they could pick it up because 4 hours plus gas is to hard they said they would charge me $150 to pick it up or charge me $500 to exchange for the correct part

      By what was requested by the customer on the initial call, the correct rear differential was provided.  However, after reviewing the transaction with several managers and the sales person, we were able to find a solution.  Customer has been contacted, the solution provided was amicable, and we have the new order moving forward for no additional costs to the customer.

      In the course of attempting to get the correct part for the customer, the ********************** representative that was helping Mr. ****** left the company.  Unfortunately, this resulted in communication issues with the customer, and delayed the issuance of his refund.  A full refund was processed on Oct. 31st.  B & R attempted contact to update the customer, but was unable to reach him.  Attached is a copy of the processed refund.

      The wheels sold to this customer were as described, and in good used condition for a 12+ year old used wheel.  The were not misrepresented in any way, nor were chrome wheels requested, as the wheels the customer requested did not come in chrome from the factory. Factory 18" Camaro wheels only came in an aluminum finish, or black steel. There seems to be a communication issue between the party that ordered the wheels, vs the person who came in to pick them up. 

      Due to the potential of a miscommunication between the customer and their ********************** representative, and in light of the high level of customer service that B & R provides all of our customers, ************ has been refunded in full.

      I was sold a bad engine for my **************************************************************************************************** my 2400$ or take the bad engine or replace it

      Business Response

      When ************* contacted B & R regarding her engine, she was asked to submit her installation documentation, per the guidelines of our warranty process.  To date, she has not submitted any documentation, despite multiple requests.  Her warranty has not been denied. We are unable to review her claim, for approval or denial, until we receive her installation paperwork. As it stands, she has failed to follow the stipulations of her warranty.

      On 6/3/24 Ordered Decklid Tailgate on line for $90.08 plus $75.00 for shipping. The picture shows the red and yellow lens covers. I recieved Decklid Tailgate with no lens. Was told by phone they were usually sold separately and was transferred to another line where I left a message with no response. I think this is false advertising. They have my last name spelled *******.
