    I placed an order with GoKartsUSA on 21 Nov 2023 - before Thanksgiving. This was a Christmas present for my son. I ordered an exhaust system, carburetor, and throttle cable (a total of $370.51). After a couple of weeks, I reached out to inquire about why my order had not shipped. I spoke with **** on 18 Dec 2023 - nearly a month after placing my order. According to **** the order was "in stock", but they had been very busy. He indicated they would ship it out soon. After a few more days without receiving any information about shipping, I reached back out and I spoke with *******. She indicated the shipping labels would be generated shortly. However, since I was going to be leaving to celebrate Christmas with my children, I asked if they could ship it to the address where I would be located (for Christmas); this was ~20 Dec 2023. I tracked the packages, and rather than shipping the packages to my address or the address where I was going to be for Christmas, the package was returned to GoKartsUSA headquarters. When I found this out, I reached out to customer service and I spoke with ****. He indicated my order would be refunded to my credit card, but it had been in GoKartsUSA possession for a couple of days when I reached out. Rather than helping me reorder the item or ship out the the item that was returned, he would not address my question about when I would receive a refund and he then blocked my account and claimed I was under "security review". I filed a dispute with my credit card company who refunded the amount. I attempted to order the exhaust, but I was refused (see pictures) - I never received an email or information about why I was refused. I tried to go to another site, but it appears GTC Manufacturing (****************************) is run by the same people, as they answered my question about denying my order on that site versus the chat on GoKartsUSA. That is very SHADY. I had two orders ($370+$106). I want the security review removed.

    The minibike kit we purchased had several defective items. We contacted the company over 6 times to resolve the problem. The customer service representative who answered only tells us they will have someone from the service department get in touch with us, which never happens. It's almost like the already knkw the script for each call coming in. They repetitively say the same thing every time and don't let me explain the importance of getting it resolved. Horrible service. defective product we can't even use.
