Summary
Claim Procedure
The Customer must expressly report any suspected Product failure to OE as soon as possible for investigation by OE or its agents. OE may be contacted by email (sales@oeelectrics.com). A customer support representative may contact the Customer in the first instance to eliminate common issues such as blown fuses or poor connections. If the problem cannot be resolved via phone or email, OE may require the Customer to return the goods to them at the Customer’s cost in order to carry out such investigations. In such cases, OE will provide the Customer with a returns form which should accompany the returned Product. The process may be delayed if a Product is returned without an OE returns form.
On completion of the investigations and confirmation of a fault which is covered under the terms set out below, OE will, at its own option, repair or replace the faulty Product free of charge. The repaired or replacement Product will be returned to the Customer at OE’s cost and the Customer will be credited with any reasonable carriage costs incurred in returning the faulty Product to OE. Should the Customer require a replacement Product prior to the completion of the warranty process they may place a purchase order for such replacements. Should OE subsequently determine that the returned Product is faulty, OE will credit the Customer with the original purchase price (including carriage) of the returned Product and any reasonable carriage costs incurred by the Customer in returning the Product. Should OE determine that any returned Product is not faulty, the Customer may have the Product returned to them at their cost, or OE may, at their discretion, offer to retain the Product and the Customer will be credited for the value of the Product less an agreed restocking fee. OE may, at their discretion, carry out an on-site investigation prior to requesting the return of the Product.
