STANDARD WARRANTY EXCHANGE: OBTAIN AN RMA NUMBER

Overview of the Warranty Procedure:

• Trouble-shoot to determine what component is faulty
• Obtain an RMA Number from DDM Tuning via email (Support Center)
• Ship the faulty part to DDM Tuning with the RMA Number on the package
• Receive replacement component from DDM Tuning
• If items returned for warranty replacement are not defective or not covered by the warranty they will be disposed of after 30 days.

We are glad to replace faulty items as part of a warranty claim if the item(s) is indeed defective and is covered under warranty. In the case of any discrepancies and disputes, the resolution of warranty claims is at the discretion of Apexcone/DDM Tuning.

Proof of purchase from DDM Tuning will be required so please keep a record of your invoice. If you don't have your invoice number, we can search our database to assist you.
