OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Defective Parts Warranty Information

Manufacturer defects are an unfortunate reality of the autoparts industry. We do our best to visually inspect products prior to shipment, but there is still a chance that you might be the unlucky recipient of a product affected by manufacturer defect. The good news is that all parts purchased from Aircooled.Net are warranted against manufacturer defects and as such, we will assist you via either replacement or repair after a part under warranty has been verified as defective. All warranty issues must be reported to Aircooled.Net within 90 days of invoice/shipment. All warranty returns are subject to inspection and warranty processing times. Aircooled.Net will expedite the replacement or repair of your defective part as fast as availability and manufacturer service allows. In the event a replacement or repair cannot be fulfilled, your customer account will be credited the full purchase price of the product. There are only two “warranty qualifying” situations:

  1. Product is found to be defective upon inspection/installation
  2. Product fails within warranty period under conditions of normal/intended use
Warranties are valid only for original purchaser with receipt. Liability is limited to cost of the replacement part. Normal wear and tear, shop labor, and any other costs are not included.
