To whom it may concern,
The consumer accepted a mitigation credit to their credit card through us and was working with the manufacture.
When the consumer contacted us back asking for us to assist them with this, we reviewed with the consumer that they accepted a mitigation credit with us and they were working with the manufacture. They cited they had communication to show that the manufacture advised them to contact us again. We requested the communications with the manufacture be sent over to us for review. We have reviewed what the consumer has sent us and replied back to the consumer. This communication they sent us shows that the manufacture is working with with the consumer. Based off the communication provided, they are saying they are going to help them with this matter, but the part they need to do this is currently out of stock. They are waiting for it to come back in stock and, as they stated, they will send it out to the consumer when it is available.

On 4/11 I purchased a soft top for my jeep from extreme terrain. I am a new jeep owner so I called and spoke to two different technicians to ensure I am getting the right product for a seamless installation. After being assured that I have the right product the technician put my order in via phone, well turns out technician ordered a replacement top and not a complete top so it was missing hardware and unable to be installed. I took my hard top off and carried it up 2 flights of stairs to store it then dropped my jeep off at the shop for installation and thats when they informed me of the missing hardware. I had to speak to 3 different technicians to get to a supervisor to expedite the shipping. They are refusing to expedite the hardware I am now carless and had to rent a car out of pocket while extreme terrain gets their act together. I had to beg for the hardware to be expedited. And one supervisor said they could then a couple hours later another supervisor said they cant. Every time I have ordered from here there is an issue. I live on the east coast where it's still chilly and rainy therefore I cant drive my jeep without the top on. This was such an unpleasant, costly and inconvenient transaction from extreme terrain even though I intentionally did everything in my power to make it a seamless experienceBusiness Response

On September 16th, I placed an order for CX Axles for my 2011 Tundra. Unfortunately, Extreme Terrain lost track of my order and, in an attempt to rectify the situation, sent me three additional CV axle sets. Upon receipt, I returned the two sets, realizing I did not need six CV axles. On December 18th, shortly after returning from deployment, I observed that one of the CV axle boots was incorrectly seated. I initiated a second return for that axle and received a replacement with properly seated boots. Upon inspecting my axles the next day after driving, I discovered an issue. Despite investing nearly $800 for a mechanic to install the CV axles at ******, they are now leaking due to Extreme Terrain's improper boot seating. So, I took my Tundra back to ****** and they noticed that a metallic substance was coming out of my front transfer case and sent me a picture. ****** stated that the front transfer case is likely leaking because of the metallic contaminants. This is reflected on my ****** customer receipt and on my ****** account. Due to all of this, I requested Extreme Terrain to step outside of their company policy to resolve this issue by refunding me for the faulty CV axles. I sent an email on January 25th asking on an update for my refund and it took them almost a month to respond back. I'm sorry that you haven't received an update on your request. As per checking, one of our supervisors tried to call you on 2/17 and he said there was no answer and he left a voicemail stating that we cannot cover any labor charges related to a defective item. As a courtesy, he checked the manufacturer's webpage to see if they offer compensation and they also do not cover any labor charges, rental car fees, or lost wages. I understand that this is not what you wanted to hear. We appreciate your patience and understanding of this matter. Please feel free to contact us if we can be of any further assistance. I never received a phone call and I never received a voice mail.Business Response

To whom it may concern,
We have assisted the consumer with a replacement for the defective Axles.
A supervisor has left a voicemail for the consumer reviewing all of the information. We apologize, but we cannot cover any labor charges related to a defective item. As stated on our website under the "Returns" information.
ExtremeTerrain.com is not responsible for any labor costs which occur as the result of the installation of wrong or defective parts.
With that being said, the supervisor did check the manufacture webpage in an attempt to see if we could offer any assistance in this situation. Unfourtunely, they also do not cover any labor charges, rental car fees or lost wages.
Thank you.

Complaint: 21578496
I am rejecting this response because: Extreme Terrain claims that they called me and left a voice mail. That never happened and I articulated that when I called to recieve an update on the order. There was never a missed call or a voice mail and phone records will reflect that. I contacted Detroit Axles, where Extreme Terrain acquires their axles from, and they were not able to cover the cost of the defective axles because the liability lies with Extreme Terrain once Extreme Terrain recieved the axles. This leads to a second point of their being no quality control of the products yet leaves the customers liable for defective products that are knowingly being sold. The point is, Extreme Terrain continues to sell this known defective product at the expense of the consumer and then refuses to change their policy knowing that customers will experience this problem.Regards,

On November 22,2023, I purchased a Hard Top for my 2017 Jeep Wrangler. The Total amount of the purchase was $2,734.80. On December 8th, 2023 my purchase was delivered and installed to my Jeep Wrangler. On December 9th, we received rain in our area and when this happened the rain began to FLOOD into my Jeep, an issue that I NEVER had happen before.I immediately emailed the third Party Extreme Terrain who I purchased the top from. I continued to email them from December 10th until March 21st, 2024. It took Extreme Terrain 30 days to get me in touch with the Manufacture of the Top. January 9th, I began dealing with ***** and ***** the owners of Rally Top (which is the manufacturer of the Jeep Hard Top). Now, please keep in mind that we are already 30 days after my top arrived that Extreme Terrain got me in touch with the Manufacturer. I then had to purchase another $400 in Addition to the $2,734.80 that I had already spent on the top to try and get the top to stop leaking. These items did not stop the water from coming in.. My door locks stopped working, my seats were soaked, the radio stopped working..but I had no option to continue to look for a solution with the manufacturer as it was dead of winter and I had nothing else to put on top of my vehicle. I reached out to Extreme Terrain starting at the end of December into January looking for compensation for this additional money that I had to spend for a faulty item that I received. On January 30th, 2024 Extreme Terrain emailed me asking if I was looking to Refund, Replace or just looking for COMPENSATION.. To which I replied compensation while I continued to work with the Manufacture on a solution to the leaking top. I received a total of $424.00 - 1/31 $333.90 was received and 2/15 $90.10. I do not deny that money was received.. However, it was supposed to be compensation.. Not a credit to my account. They then reduced my total invoice from $2,734.80 to a new total of $2,310.80. I continued to keep Extreme Terrain in the loop while I worked with Rally Tops until March 21st.. When Rally Top said that they had no other solutions for fixing the leak and that they would accept a return but I had to go through Extreme Terrain for the return. I reached out to Extreme and they denied my request. They tried to state that the money I accept was a credit and I was agreeing to keep the top AS IS.. to WHICH I SAID NO.. that was not communicated nor did I agree to keeping the top as is. I reached out to a lawyer, and notified Extreme Terrain about how they were breaking the law by refusing to return a broken item that they sold me that continued to cause major damage to my Jeep. At this time, they still refuse to return my top and provide me the remaining amount of money owed to me which is $2,310.08. I did file a dispute with Captial One but they messed that up as well and only gave me a refund of $424.00. I am looking to return the top and receive the remaining $1,886.80.Business Response

To whom it may concern,
We had explained to consumer that we are unable to accept the return due to this item being outside of our return policy but we offered a partial refund in store credit which the consumer accepted. Shortly after that was accepted and applied to their account the consumer submitted a chargeback with their credit card. This account is currently showing the chargeback was filed.
Thank you.

Complaint: 21555621
I am rejecting this response because: While that comment is partially correct it is not 100% accurate.. they offered me compensation in the amount of $424.00 for all of the additional charges I had to put out trying to get the leak to stop. Their policy is 30 days to return an item.. however, they took 30 days to get me in touch with the Manufacture.. and on March 20th 2024, the manufacture told me they would accept a return because they can not figure out why the top is leaking, but I had to go through Extreme Terrain to return it. Extreme Terrain denied the return and offered me STORE CREDIT.. of $500.. then $930 - which why would I ever buy from them again when they sold me a defective item. I did file a dispute with my credit card company and they only awarded me another $424.00 - meaning I am still owed a balance of $1886.80... I also spoke to a lawyer who told me to tell the following to Extreme Terrain - According to Law- "Even if the return period has expired, its reasonable to expect a retailer to stand behind products it sells. Under implied warranty laws, I have the right to defect-free merchandise regardless of any restrictions imposed by a stores return policy. In the U.S., by law any purchase includes an implied warrantythat items you buy are defect-free and will remain so for a reasonable amount of time. Just by selling a product, under laws of every state and the District of Columbia, a retailer, and sometimes the manufacturer, warrants that theres nothing significantly wrong with it. In other words, in the U.S., if you buy something and it has a significant defect or it doesnt do what its supposed to do for a reasonable length of time, the seller must offer a remedy, even if any return period or manufacturers warranty has expired, or it didnt supply an express warranty at all."
According to law.. I notified them in a timely manner.. I worked closely with the manufacturer trying to resolve the issue.. which the manufacturer agrees that there is something wrong because they can not come up with a solution after 3 months of trying. Therefore BY LAW, I was sold a defective top and regardless of it being 3 months, Extreme Terrain was aware of my situation, I have the right to return this top for the remaining refund.To Date I have every single email conversation with Extreme Terrain and the Manufacture Rally Tops that I can provide as proof that I never accepted this top "as is" and I was NEVER told until March that they would not take the defective item back. In fact, I have a specific email from Extreme Terrain in February - asking me if I wanted to turn the top - however then they asked me if I was looking for compensation for the additional supplies while I continued to work with the Manufacturer trying to resolve the leaking.. So if they would have returned it in February.. why would they not return it in March when the Manufacture had no more solutions to resolve the leaking issue and told me they would accept the return, but again I had to go through Extreme Terrain (the third party) who will not.

As you can clearly see in these emails i never agreed to a credit.. the $424.00 they gave me in two refunds to my credit card 1/30 $333.90 and 2/15 $90.10 were supposed to be as the guy from Extreme Terrain referred to it as COMPENSATION.. however they went ahead and deducted this amount from my invoice and keep claiming i agreed to store credit and to keep the top as is.. and that is NOT the case. I agreed to compensation only because in the dead of winter how am i supposed to return a roof to the only vehicle i own.. and drive ******* in rain and snow?! So i opted for the compensation and to continue to work with the manufacturer. I want to give them the top back.. it is of no use to me leaking.. i am going to have to purchase a whole new top from a different companyBusiness Response

Before we can assist the consumer we are requesting proof of reversal of chargeback filed and copies of the email correspondences with the manufacture.

Company is not helpful In wrongful parts being shipped. I ordered a set of Shock absorbers for my car. The kit includes 2 front and 2 rear shocks. When the kit arrived it contained 4 rear shocks. I put 2 of the 4 on my car. Monday I contacted the company because I wanted to get the 2 remaining shocks swapped out for the front shocks, I wanted the company to send out the correct shocks out with a return label so I can send out the rear shocks back to them. They are treating this as a full return and changing me an extra $10, I didn't s**** up I didn't order the wrong part I should not be charged anything. The company doesn't seem to want to make the correct actions. Forcing me to have to wait weeks to get this corrected.Business Response

This company fooled me, took my money and left me stuck with a defective product. They sent me an open box item that was marketed as new. Then once I receive the item, they offered small compensation to force me into keeping it instead of having to deal with a return. The item, a fox stabilizer, started leaking 2 weeks later and now they refuse to help and stuck me with a paperweight. The supervisor I spoke with called **** (who refused to provide a last name or even initial), was extremely rude and belittling. They also sent me 3 separate side steps because the first 2 were damaged when they arrived. I truly regret ever doing business with this company.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
I accept roughly a 15% price adjustment because I purchased a new item but received an open box item. I did not agree to a completely dysfunctional part which didnt present as dysfunctional until further examination. Its now a paperweight. This business mislead me and took full advantage of passing off their defective parts to me. This is beyond unethical.

I purchased a lift kit for my jeep from this website. The photo showed that it came with Fox brand shocks which is the main reason I purchased the lift. The description said it came with JSPEC shocks which I assumed was a model of fox shocks but when the kit arrived it came with a lower quality shock. When I messaged the company they told me I should have read the description better and that the image was just a stock photo. I called and was told that I would get a email and to send pictures of what I received and would hear back from them never heard back from them. All I wanted is the product that was advertisedBusiness Response

To whom it may concern,
The consumer has been advised that the lift kit description states that the shocks included are Jspec not fox, we apologized to the consumer for any confusion. They have the option to set up a return within our return policy window for a refund if they do not like or want this kit due to the shocks included with it. We would be happy to help the consumer find a kit that they would be happy with. Please advise the consumer to contact us to set up a return if they would like.

I bought a cold air intake from EXTREMETERRAIN online, order # ***********. I paid upfront. It was stated that it was a "GUARANTEED FIT" my 2021 TUNDRA by the website itself once I uploaded all the truck information that the site requested. I received the part in good order; however it was not a fit and the box stated that it was for a 2012-2016 model. 1. I began the return process online through their website or links supplied by them- only to find that to get return labels, I have to UPLOAD pictures of the **** its contents, (about 8 pictures in all). 2. I took pictures.3. I uploaded them on their page (EMAIL) - the page to upload did not confirm whether they went through or not when the button was clicked (it changed color but did not state whether they were received or not. 4. A week went by, no labels/ no response whatsoever.5. THEN, I called them - as their link (EMAIL) did not work (according to them- after they tried to find the pictures, they verified that it did not).6. Ive spoken to 3 people now, OVER TEN DAYS- to get return labels. They have no idea when I can get information from "THE VENDOR". The Latest person being: ****************** (#****). 7. I am told now that the part was sent by "an outside vendor" and they have to get the labels from them (get the return okayed by them)...Then I get the return labels (so I can get a refund). 8. NOWHERE on the site does it explain this process for returns (that returns are with pictures, or that the returns are at the discretion or approval of "the outside vendor".9. I complained that I did not do business with the outside vendor, but with EXTREME TERRAIN!. 10. I will NEVER use this business again.++++ There has to be against the law or at the very least VERY POOR BUSINESS PRACTICE. 11. I have not gotten a refund or been able to speak with anyone that has a solution at EXTREME TERRAIN.PLEASE HELP. Otherwise "Let the ***** BEWARE"!!!!!Sincerely,**********************************************Business Response

I purchased a FOX Performance Steering Stabilizer on 2/22/2024. A few days later, it was installed on my Jeep. A couple days after that, we noticed that the cap came off, fell down the shaft and it was leaking fluid. I reached out through chat and was told a replacement would be sent and then I could return the defective one since this was my daily driver. A couple days later I received an email from tech support asking what I wanted done. I explained what I was told and that I needed the replacement sent out. On 3/6 I was told by tech support that I have to fill out a warranty with the manufacturer and they will contact me for resolution. The link they sent isn't even right as it doesn't take you to a warranty form. This is not acceptable to me as I already expected to have the replacement in hand. I tried to drive my Jeep today and since the shock has failed and is defective, it was extremely wobbly and unsafe to drive. I had to return home. At this point, I would just like them to refund my money and I will purchase a new one from another company. I will be happy to send the defective one back if they want to send a return label, as soon as I get a new one. I need to be able to drive my vehicle and right now I cannot.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:I did hear from tech support on 3/18 that they can assist with a refund. I responded but havent heard back on how to proceed. I will need a return shipping label to send the part back. Once I receive the refund, I will proceed with closing the case.

On 11/28/2023 I purchased the following items from Extreme Terrain
- Lug Nuts
- Free mount and balance
- 5 Valve Stem Sensors
- 5 ***** ***** Tires
- 5 **** Wheels
Total: $3120.26
Received the items and spare wheel came damaged. Returned the spare wheel and tire for an undamaged item processed on Dec. 18th 2023 (this was after hours of being on hold and disconnected multiple times)
PSI did not pick up on tires once placed on vehicle. Per websites suggestion took to dealer. Dealer advised censors will not pick up in the vehicle. Called company was disconnected multiple times once again and on hold for hours over days. Once speaking with someone advised they would send new censors.
Received new censors took to another tire shop PSI still did not show up on vehicle. Called company again (disconnected and placed on hold multiple times) finally we resorted to taking the old censors out of old tires costing us a trip back to the shop yet again PSI picked up. The censors they have for these tires will not pick up on this vehicle and they do not have a solution.
We would like reimbursement for the service costs for their mistake and the 10 censors they incorrectly sent that we have already sent back. Please see attached receipts and multiple attempts to contact a supervisor via email for a solution. The breakdown for cost is also at the beginning of the email.
Total reimbursement: $580.85Business Response
