Steering Column

I just want to make a complaint about a parts dealer in CA.
The name of the place is Truck Parts Company in,
San Gabrial Valley Baldwin Park CA
I ordered a steering column from them, when I got it ,it was missing the shaft, lower bearing assembly,the upper bearing was shot,it had a power glide shift indcator. I ship it back to them and they refunded me 70% of the org price Needless to say I will not do busness with them anymore.
Watch out for this outfit . Most of all you guys in CA
They claim that this was a remanfanured new paint ,new guts new wire.
Ok rant over

Re: Steering Column

This may get moved to the reveiws section.Since I seldom use any parts supplier but one of the BB vendors I don't look over there.Did you perchance check to see if there was a reveiw before ordering?If it were a company I was not familiar with I would definitely ask here since most parts suppliers have been used by one member or another over the years.

Re: Steering Column

Call your CC if you used one. They will probably help you out with that extra 30%.

Re: Steering Column

I agree call your credit card company if you used one...I always check in here first to make sure who is using who for their parts.

Re: Steering Column

No Paneldeland I didn't check the reveiws section, next time I will. I let my guard down and it may cost me. I have contacted my CC company and got the ball rolling. By the way I call Truck Parts Co today and they are out of town.

Try KevsClassics a board member who apparently does good work and it will be less than you paid the truck shop

Re: Steering Column

To bad you couldn't go crack somebody in head with it, that might be worth the 30%.
