Avoid if you’re on a time crunch. Ordered front end suspension kit on 3/14. Website claims all orders will be shipped by 2pm the next business day. On 3/18, I get notification the kit has “shipped”, but on checking the tracking, it was just a generated label - nothing has actually shipped. Today, 3/20/24, fedex had still not received the package. I talked to representative Amy from Detroit Axle and was told that the item is not in stock and is being transferred to their Texas warehouse and would be another 3-5 days. No offer of quicker shipping. No explanation of why I wasn’t told a week ago that the parts weren’t actually in stock. This is absolutely ridiculous. Avoid this company if you’re on any sort of timeline as they do not care.

STAY AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS... STAY AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS... Ordered part according to the web site information, part received was the wrong part due to incorrect information on their site.. Contacted customer service, returned as requested and when I called to get refund, they charged me a $30 restocking fee for them sending me the wrong product. True rip off.

They shipped me incorrect parts and… They shipped me incorrect parts and then charged me to ship them back. I didn't charge them when I had to drive into town and get the correct parts myself. It was very inconvenient as I had been dropped off and actually needed to drive the car I was repairing.

Great customer support Updated review (March 22nd, 2023)... I just had the most amazing talk with a representative from the company Detroit Axel. A few weeks ago I had accidentally ordered the wrong set of rotors and brake pads from the Detroit Axel company, thru the Amazon website. And after realizing that the parts were not a perfect fit for my vehicle, i decided to return it. However, I was denied a refund (by amazon). But lucky for me, as soon as the company Detroit Axle became aware of my negative encounter with Amazon, they immediately tried to reach out to me via different platforms. Today I finally got the chance to speak with a representative from Detroit Axel, her name was Alexa. She was very professional and gave me the opportunity to express myself by listening to my side of the story. She made me feel very important. After listening to my story, and reviewing the case, she offered to refund me the money, opposing Amazon's decision. Thank you Alexa! (5 stars for u). I am very impress with the way Detroit Axel stand behind their products. Is very hard to find a company with decent prices and most importantly great customer support. Previous review (March 20th, 2023)... I'm a part time mechanic. And have purchased parts from Detroit Axle before. But lately my experience has been terrible. Detroit Axle started as a small aftermarket parts shop near the Rouge Plant in Dearborn, Michigan in 1990. They are popular for selling parts at moderate prices. But for the last few years the quality of their products have been deteriorating at a rapid pace, and their warranty is practically non exciting. On January 2023 I ordered a complete set of rotors and brake pads. Items arrived a few days late. After arrival I Installed it and then realized that the parts sent to me were not the right fit to my car. And to make things worst the brake pads arrived defective: The metal plate detached loose from the pad. Luckily for my experience I caught this flaw before driving away. Otherwise, it could had been my life or someone else's. After returning the set back, the seller (Detroit Axle) decided not to reimburse me. Because they claim that the parts were used. The only visual wear was created during the installation process. But the vehicle was NEVER driven. Not only did they not refund me the money, but they also decided to keep the returned parts. So I ended up with no money and no parts. It was a "win win" for them. Well played Detroit Axle, congratulations. The company DETROIT AXLE is currently been investigated by the BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU (BBB). BBB is currently advertising Detroit Axle as a company with a grade "F". As of March 2023 Detroit Axle have received 228 legal complaints in the last 3 years. 58 complaints which happened within the last 12 months alone! I WOULD NOT recommend buying from this company just to save some money. I highly suggest to stay away. If you find yourself in a desperate situation and do decide to buy from Detroit Axle, please educate yourself and take all precautions before driving your vehicle.

New control arms with ball joints / No castle nuts or locking pins supplied Purchased a set of front control arms for a 2013 Honda Pilot. Quality is good, I'll give them that much. But, how do you sell control arms with pressed in ball joints without supplying a new castle nut & locking pin ? Also, how do you not include new control arm " stop bushings". This is all necessary parts for the SAFETY of the job. Detroitaxle said those parts are not included. WTH !!!! They gave me a paltry $ 10 buck refund. Lucky to get that. Had to order missing parts separately at a MUCH higher cost than $ 10 bucks. Was not going to re-use the old parts. Too dangerous. Advertisement never mentioned that these parts were " not included". Over 40 years as a mechanic.....never had control new control arms come without ALL needed parts. Lesson learned, the hard way. Time to sell my tools & pack it in. Too many sub-standard parts floating around. I'm not going to be responsible for the deaths of others due to sub-par auto parts. I lost money on this job, ( since I purchased new missing parts ). But I can sleep at night knowing the job was done right.
