Don't worry. I found out the procedure for you today. I called the D2 racing US distributor(www.urbanimport.com). I paid $50 and he is shipping me the insert. Mike from Urbanimport told me it would've been free replacement if I bought them from him. There you go....your US warranty procedure. I love the coilovers but I wish the customer service was better.

As you can see, you made the claim through us and we forwarded your email to D2 in Taiwan. They sometimes have to be emailed a few times before replying as English is a barrier. I am still trying to find out the exact procedure for warranties from the D2 distributor in the USA. Needless to say, you have nothing to worry about getting your warranty replacements other than time as this is all a new system.

I don't know why some people are soo uptight. Maybe the frustration is setting in, but that doesn't mean that gives you the right to talk down to people. First and foremost, I just wanted to remind people that I believed Mark made a statement that if they don't receive their coilovers by the end of January, he will refund their money. Just trying to help so chill out. I can relate with your frustrations and if I were in your shoes, I would be seriously debating getting my money back. The whole JIC thing was merely a light hearted comment, that you obviously took the wrong way. For the record you can get the A1's for around a G note. After doing research I found out the A1's better for the street as they are more comprimising than the A2's. The twin tube design also lasts longer than a monotube design, with the trade off of being a little softer. Anyways enough with the JIC stuff. No where did I rub it in that you all are having problems with this deal like that other Jack$@#, so reserve your rudeness for someone who deserves it!

I find this disturbing if I find myself to be in your situation. With the one year warrenty, You shouldn't have had to pay anything to replace a faulty strut. I would be very displeased if this is the way that mark takes care of his customers after the sale is completed. Mark says to contact D2 for warrenty repair, D2 will probably refer you to urbanimport. So what use is the warrenty from you Mark?

When you return shoes to Nike, do you have to pay for shipping back? Yes. Do they send you new shoes? Yes. This is how the D2 coilover warranty may work however I have yet to receive confirmation of the warranty procedure from our supplier. Hopefully by Monday it can be cleared up. Have a good weekend everyone.

Shipping was $15........
You know...I'm not really pissed about the $50 at all. I was more frustrated that no resolution came from directly from Mark or D2 Racing.

Many warranties require some kind of payment. At least for shipping.

I am interested in a refund as i have not seen my coilovers. I have nothing against you Mark, just asking if it's possible to get a refund at this point just because it's been such a long time and these coils have not shown up. Let me know.......

What I don't get is all these ppl that are asking for refunds now. They've waited all this time and now right before they're supposed to get them they decide to ask for a refund. Wow ! ! Thats seems crazy to me, considering that Mark never mentioned a SPECIFIC date as to when we will actually get them. People...going in you knew that you were going to have to wait for them. Just relax, no one is stealing your money, you've lived without that money for this long so it can't be that you all of a sudden need it now. And it's not like your going to find a better deal at this point. So I say just sit bak, relax, grab a beer, doobi, whateva and just wait for the damn things !!

I sent Mark a pre payment of $750 for a co worker of mine in October, since he needed the coilovers, and like I had mentioned about JICs service, about not refunding his $700 for the R/F coilover assembly which JIC charged him, but no order placed ?
This is the same type of thing, once the GD was made official, I asked for a $50 refund, since I wouldn't get it any sooner. I called and emailed Mark at least twice now since Dec 20. No response, no refund, no coilovers.
This is the exact thing JIC USA/Ziel Motorsport did, ignored phone call requests or gave a run around, and no refund for months after an "order" was placed, which never was placed to begin with (by JIC) or handled correctly.
I am posting now on a public forum, since Mark likes to respond here, and not to emails.
Correct this situation, do the right thing, and refund the money all $750 of it, immediately.
I am having a sour taste in my mouth on this deal, and if anything I will gladly post up all promised emails you had communicated.
...The ball is in your court...

hey guys, well guess what, mark charged me twice for one set, meaning he charged me $1600,
i called at least 10 times telling him to credit me back for one of them,
well guess what,
i'm sick and tired of i'll take care of it. call me back, etc.
well you know what, i'm calling my credit card company, and i'm disputing my charge right now,
this is crap and you all know it
i think all of you should think about twice now.
oh, and i've been very patient with mark, but its feb 7th, all i know is that it should of been here by now, or at least one of my unordered paid sets should of been credited to me
so i called my credit card company, and credit will be given to me, oh mark, if you send the coilovers to me, it means that you've just lost $800 since i've already disputed BOTH my charges
oh and i feel so much better now knowing i'm not gonna get screwed, guess i'll order my stuff from a GOOD RELIABLE seller,

You called us twice. The first time we forgot to close the batch for the refund and it expired. The second time was last week and we completed it at that time. Sorry thing's didn't work out.

We can refund you the $50 extra if you want to receive the coilovers at the same time as everyone else.

Sure we can refund you minus the $100 deposit. We mentioned the coilovers should be in by the end of January. We didn't gaurantee that they will. Things come up and the delays are reasonable.

Well I had planned on installing them over President's Day Weekend. I thought they would be here well before then. I gave it the 2 months as expected, and would expect about 2 more weeks for anything that could go wrong. Just hope they get here in less than 2 weeks.

with an order this size it is not uncommon to expect delays, manufacturing, shipping and customs take time. mark said that they were EXPECTED to arrive at the end of january, that was not a guarantee, because it could not be guaranteed. now that they are a week late and it looks like you may have to wait another week, you guys are wishing you spent $1800 on JICs just so that you could have them faster. jeez, some people are so fuking impatient and at the first sign of a delay they are ready to cancle everything.
a while back when i was part of the warpspeed ypipe deal, i waited almost 4 months for my pipe, did i complain? no, i knew that big orders took time and for the price i got i was fine waiting.

ok guys, i called mark again, he said that he credit back my account for one of the unordered sets, he said that by latest on mon i will see it on my account, at that point when i do see it on my account i will cancel the dispute on my credit card, trusting these things will be shipped. i'm willing to risk $800 but not $1600. so the coilovers are in the U.S. i'm hoping, but i just hope that by march 13th i'm going to be installing my coilovers since i have spring break..-= 0...if not....i'm gonna go in the corner n cry like a baby. hopefully with good faith everything will work out. but i just hope that these set's struts won't blow easy, i drive about 36,000 miles a year, so thats a lot of driving. neone selling rims??? i need a set for my infiniti

Thanks for the update. So is UrbanImports, the offical D2 USA headquarters? 1MAX2NV, is this the procedure in your case?
