Where an item is faulty we would advise customers to phone us directly so our technicians can guide them through some simple troubleshooting steps. When returning items can you please enclose a covering letter stating your full details including order number, a daytime contact number and the reason for return.
please note if you are purcahsing an item for christmas or a birthday, we advise to try and assemble the item well in advance [our cut off date for christmas deliverins is usually 2 weeks before christmas for this reason] as the rechargables are electronic and can have minor issues from time to time with wiring, usually these can be rectified by some minor checking of the wiring by the customer, also minor damage can occur with couriers and transportation, again if we know in time we can sort the problem, but not christmas morning.
Blow Moulding process: This a process which is used by the manufacturers to make most of the ride on cars that we sell, the process involves blowing sheets of plastic with hot air to make the moulds required for the production of the car. Sometimes the moulds can have minor scuffs or very small scratches caused by material flowing in the air as the plastic is very hot this can mark the body of the car. This does NOT cause any materialistic flaws within the body and does not affect the strength or durability of the body. They are just minor cosmetic flaws and usually only affect one in ten items we sell. Kars 4 Kids will not accept any returns back due to this and this no reason to claim the item as faulty.
Batteries: Please note that we only offer 30 days warranty for the batteries that are provided with any items sold. In every sale the item is checked by our staff prior to despatch and the battery is fully tested. If in a situation the item becomes un-useable due to a faulty battery then the customer will be liable for Courier charge incurred to get the replacement battery out. We will provide the battery free of charge but the shipping charge must be met by the customer. This is providing that the battery is within the warranty period. After Warranty period, the customer is liable to pay for the battery and shipping cost.
Packaging: Please note that in the event of the customer returning the goods, please try to return it in the original packaging sent with the item. If you do not have original packaging, please use adequate packaging. We advise that if there are storage problems due to the size of the box - you flat pack it and store it safely. The consumers owe a duty of care to look after the goods while they are in their possession and also to ensure that the goods are adequately packed for transit return
Damage in Transit: We appreciate due to the size and shape of the boxes we send to you, they may be vulnerable to damage in transit by the couriers. If this happens to your item then you must report this within 3 days of you receiving the item. So it leaves enough time for our staff to claim on the couriers insurance. If the item is not repaired by sending replacement parts then we will replace the entire item at our discretion.
