Yonristic Performance Limited Warranty & Return Policy
Yonristic Performance stands behind the quality and craftsmanship of our products. Because performance automotive components are specialized products and many of our exhaust systems are produced or configured specifically for each order, please review the following Limited Warranty and Return Policy before purchasing, installing, or modifying any Yonristic Performance product.
By purchasing from Yonristic Performance or an authorized Yonristic Performance retailer, you acknowledge and agree to the applicable terms below.
Limited Lifetime Warranty
Yonristic Performance exhaust systems are covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects in structural materials and workmanship.
For purposes of this warranty, “Lifetime” means for as long as the original retail purchaser owns both the Yonristic Performance product and the vehicle on which the product was originally installed.
This warranty is available only to the original purchaser and is non-transferable. Proof of purchase from Yonristic Performance or an authorized Yonristic Performance retailer may be required.
What Is Covered
The Limited Lifetime Warranty covers manufacturing defects affecting the structural integrity or proper construction of the exhaust system, including defective welds, manufacturing-related cracking or separation, and incorrect assembly attributable to Yonristic Performance.
If a covered manufacturing defect is confirmed, Yonristic Performance will, at its discretion and as permitted by applicable law, repair the affected component, replace the affected component, or provide another appropriate remedy.
Warranty coverage applies only to the Yonristic Performance product itself.
Valve Controllers and Electronic Components
Yonristic-supplied electronic valve controllers, wiring harnesses, remote controls, electronic actuators, vacuum-control components, and related electronic accessories are covered against manufacturing defects for one year from the original delivery date.
OEM components transferred to or used with a Yonristic Performance exhaust system remain subject to the applicable vehicle manufacturer's warranty and are not warranted by Yonristic Performance.
What Is Not Covered
The Limited Warranty does not cover damage, failure, or deterioration caused by circumstances unrelated to a manufacturing defect, including improper installation or adjustment; incorrect fitment resulting from inaccurate vehicle information supplied by the customer; accidents, collision, road debris, or impact; misuse, abuse, or neglect; unauthorized cutting, welding, drilling, grinding, or other modification; improper clamp positioning or excessive clamp torque; or damage caused by another vehicle component.
Damage caused by racing, competition use, extreme operating conditions, excessive exhaust temperatures, engine malfunction, misfires, aggressive tuning, anti-lag systems, flame or overrun tuning, improper air-fuel ratios, or other conditions outside normal operation is also excluded.
Use of an aftermarket component or independent installer does not by itself void the warranty. However, damage caused by the installation, modification, failure, or incompatibility of another component is not covered.
Cosmetic Appearance, Heat Cycling & Normal Wear
Performance exhaust systems operate under extreme temperatures. Changes in appearance caused by normal operation are not manufacturing defects.
The warranty does not cover normal discoloration, heat tinting, oxidation, fading, staining, burnt-tip coloration, ceramic-coating color changes, carbon-fiber discoloration, surface scratches, rock chips, road contamination, or other cosmetic changes resulting from heat, mileage, environmental exposure, cleaning products, or normal use.
Titanium naturally changes color when subjected to heat. This is a normal characteristic of the material and is not considered a defect.
Ceramic coatings, colored finishes, polished surfaces, titanium finishes, carbon-fiber components, and exhaust tips may experience changes in appearance over time due to heat exposure, environmental conditions, cleaning chemicals, or normal use. These cosmetic changes are not considered manufacturing defects unless Yonristic Performance determines that the condition resulted from a defect in materials or workmanship.
Normal wear and maintenance items are not covered.
Sound, Volume & Drone Disclaimer
Exhaust sound is subjective and can vary substantially based on engine configuration, downpipes or headers, catalytic converters, tune, transmission, vehicle modifications, temperature, driving conditions, and individual perception.
Differences in exhaust volume, tone, pitch, resonance, drone, burbles, pops, cold-start behavior, or overall sound preference are not considered manufacturing defects and are not grounds for a warranty claim, return, or refund after installation.
Videos, sound clips, advertisements, social media content, and other media provided by Yonristic Performance are intended for reference only. Actual sound may vary depending on the customer's vehicle and configuration.
A sound-related issue may qualify for warranty consideration only when Yonristic Performance determines that the sound is directly caused by a covered physical manufacturing defect, such as an internally failed component.
Fitment & Installation
Customers are responsible for confirming their vehicle's correct year, model, trim, drivetrain, body configuration, and applicable factory options when placing an order.
If you believe you have received an incorrect product or encounter a fitment issue, stop installation and contact Yonristic Performance before cutting, welding, modifying, or permanently installing the product.
All support requests must be submitted through our official Contact Us page:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Do not modify a component in an attempt to correct a suspected fitment issue without first receiving authorization from Yonristic Performance.
Modification of the affected component may prevent us from accurately evaluating the issue and may result in denial of the claim where the modification caused or materially contributed to the problem.
Professional installation is strongly recommended for performance exhaust components, but warranty coverage will not be denied solely because an independent shop or the customer performed the installation. Damage resulting from improper installation is not covered.
Customers and installers are responsible for confirming adequate clearance from body panels, suspension components, wiring, fuel systems, heat-sensitive components, and other vehicle parts before operating the vehicle.
Labor & Related Expenses
Unless otherwise required by applicable law, Yonristic Performance's warranty applies to the covered Yonristic Performance product and does not include third-party labor or expenses associated with diagnosis, installation, removal, reinstallation, vehicle transportation, towing, storage, rental vehicles, loss of vehicle use, lost income, or other incidental expenses.
Customers must contact Yonristic Performance before authorizing third-party repair work when they believe an issue may be covered under warranty.
All requests must be submitted through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Yonristic Performance will not reimburse third-party labor, fabrication, repair, diagnosis, removal, or installation expenses that were incurred without prior written authorization from Yonristic Performance.
Warranty Claim Procedure
To submit a warranty claim, please contact Yonristic Performance through our official Contact Us page:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Please provide your order number or proof of purchase, vehicle information, a detailed description of the issue, and clear photographs and/or videos showing the affected component.
Yonristic Performance may request additional photographs, measurements, installation information, diagnostic information, vehicle modification details, or return of the affected component when reasonably necessary to determine the cause of the issue.
Submitting a warranty claim does not automatically establish warranty coverage. Yonristic Performance must first evaluate whether the condition resulted from a covered manufacturing defect.
If inspection or additional documentation is required, customers are responsible for cooperating with reasonable requests necessary to evaluate the claim.
Return Policy
Yonristic Performance accepts eligible returns of unused, uninstalled, non-customized, and non-made-to-order products within 90 calendar days of delivery, subject to the requirements and restocking fees described below.
Returned products must remain in factory-new, resalable condition and include all original components, hardware, accessories, documentation, protective materials, and packaging.
Products showing evidence of installation, test fitting, modification, damage, contamination, exhaust residue, clamp marks, bolt marks, scratches caused by installation, missing components, or other signs of use are not eligible for a standard return.
Return authorization must be obtained from Yonristic Performance before shipping any product back.
To request a return, submit your request through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Do not ship a product back before receiving return authorization.
Installed Products Are Final Sale
Once an exhaust product has been installed, partially installed, or test-fitted, it is considered used and is no longer eligible for a standard return or refund.
This includes products that have been mounted to the vehicle, clamped, bolted, fastened, cut, welded, modified, operated, exposed to exhaust gases, or otherwise show evidence of installation, even if subsequently removed.
Installation does not eliminate warranty protection for a qualifying manufacturing defect.
However, installation eliminates eligibility for a discretionary return based on change of mind, sound preference, volume preference, appearance preference, purchasing the wrong configuration, or other non-defect reasons.
Customers should inspect all components and verify fitment before completing installation.
Made-to-Order, Custom & Special-Order Products
Customized, personalized, special-order, prototype, sponsored, and made-to-order products are final sale once production has begun and are not eligible for cancellation, return, or refund except in the case of a verified manufacturing defect or an error made by Yonristic Performance.
A product may be considered made-to-order when it is manufactured, fabricated, configured, finished, coated, assembled, or prepared specifically in response to the customer's order rather than supplied as completed general inventory.
This may include products with customer-selected materials, finishes, coatings, exhaust tips, pipe configurations, dimensions, valve configurations, custom engraving, custom fabrication, or other special specifications.
Customers are responsible for confirming all specifications before production begins.
Once production, fabrication, material allocation, coating, finishing, customization, or other order-specific work begins, the order becomes non-cancellable and non-refundable.
Sponsored, Discounted & Promotional Products
Products provided free of charge, as part of a sponsorship, collaboration, promotional agreement, heavily discounted custom arrangement, or product-development program are not eligible for standard returns, exchanges, or cash refunds unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Yonristic Performance.
Warranty coverage for manufacturing defects may still apply unless separate written terms were agreed upon for the sponsorship, development, or promotional arrangement.
Order Cancellations
Order cancellation requests must be submitted as soon as possible through our official Contact Us page:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
For stocked products that have not entered fulfillment, Yonristic Performance will make reasonable efforts to accommodate cancellation requests.
For made-to-order, customized, special-order, or production-based products, cancellation is no longer available once fabrication, material allocation, finishing, coating, customization, production, or other order-specific activity has begun.
Submitting a cancellation request does not guarantee that an order can be canceled.
Orders that have already shipped cannot be canceled and must follow the applicable return procedure if eligible.
Restocking Fees
Approved returns of eligible unused and non-customized products are subject to the following restocking fees:
Returns requested within 45 calendar days of delivery: 40% restocking fee.
Returns requested between 46 and 90 calendar days after delivery: 60% restocking fee.
More than 90 calendar days after delivery: Returns are not accepted.
Restocking fees compensate for inspection, handling, repackaging, inventory depreciation, payment processing, administrative work, and fulfillment costs associated with specialized, high-value performance automotive components.
The applicable return period is determined by the date the return request is submitted to Yonristic Performance.
Once return authorization is issued, the product must be shipped within the timeframe specified in the return authorization.
Failure to ship the return within the authorized timeframe may result in cancellation of the return authorization.
Return Authorization & Inspection
Do not send products back without prior authorization.
All return requests must be submitted through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Unauthorized returns may be refused, rejected, or returned to the sender.
All approved returns are inspected after receipt.
Approval of a return request does not guarantee a refund if the product arrives in a condition different from the condition represented when the return was authorized.
Yonristic Performance reserves the right to reduce or deny a refund when the returned product is used, installed, test-fitted, damaged, modified, incomplete, improperly packaged, contaminated, missing hardware or accessories, or otherwise fails to meet the return requirements described in this policy.
Damaged, Missing or Incorrect Shipments
Please inspect your shipment immediately upon delivery and before installation.
Visible shipping damage, missing components, or receipt of an incorrect product should be reported to Yonristic Performance within 48 hours of delivery whenever reasonably possible so that the shipment can be properly documented and any applicable carrier claim can be initiated.
All reports must be submitted through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Please provide your order number along with clear photographs of the shipping carton, shipping label, internal packaging, affected product, and visible damage.
Do not discard the original packaging while a shipping claim is being evaluated.
Do not install, modify, cut, weld, or use a product that appears damaged or incorrect without first contacting Yonristic Performance.
If Yonristic Performance confirms that an incorrect product was shipped due to our error or that an eligible shipment was damaged in transit, we will work with the customer to provide an appropriate replacement, exchange, return shipping arrangement, or other applicable remedy.
The 48-hour shipping-damage reporting procedure does not limit rights that cannot legally be waived or a separate warranty claim involving a latent manufacturing defect discovered later.
Missing Components
Customers should confirm that all expected components, hardware, clamps, accessories, valve-control components, and other included items are present before beginning installation.
If an item appears to be missing, please submit a request through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Please provide your order number, photographs of all items received, and photographs of the packaging when available.
Yonristic Performance will review the shipment records and determine the appropriate resolution.
Return Packaging
Authorized returns must be securely packaged using the original packaging, foam inserts, protective wrapping, hardware packaging, and other protective materials whenever available.
Customers are strongly encouraged to retain all original packaging until the product has been fully inspected and fitment has been verified.
The customer is responsible for ensuring that the product is adequately protected during return transportation.
Damage that occurs during return shipping because of inadequate packaging may result in a reduction or denial of the refund.
Return Shipping & Original Shipping Charges
For discretionary returns, the customer is responsible for all return shipping expenses.
Original shipping costs, expedited shipping charges, international shipping charges, duties, taxes, customs charges, brokerage fees, and other delivery-related expenses are non-refundable unless the return resulted from a verified Yonristic Performance fulfillment error or unless otherwise required by applicable law.
Where Yonristic Performance confirms that an incorrect product was shipped due to our error, we will provide or arrange appropriate return shipping.
Customers should not independently incur return shipping or freight expenses for an alleged Yonristic Performance fulfillment error without first receiving instructions from Yonristic Performance.
All requests should be submitted through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
International Orders
International customers are responsible for confirming local import requirements, vehicle regulations, emissions regulations, duties, taxes, customs fees, brokerage charges, and other applicable costs unless otherwise agreed to in writing.
Delays caused by customs authorities, import inspections, carrier processing, or other circumstances outside Yonristic Performance's reasonable control are not considered product defects.
Customs duties, taxes, brokerage charges, and other government or carrier fees are generally non-refundable.
International return shipping expenses are the responsibility of the customer unless Yonristic Performance confirms that the return resulted from our fulfillment error.
Refund Processing
Approved refunds are issued after the returned merchandise has been received and inspected.
Any applicable restocking fee, missing-item charge, damage deduction, or non-refundable shipping expense will be deducted from the refund.
Refunds will generally be issued to the original payment method.
Processing time after a refund is issued may vary depending on the customer's bank, credit card company, payment provider, or financial institution.
Yonristic Performance does not control processing times imposed by third-party payment providers.
Exchanges
Eligible exchanges must be authorized by Yonristic Performance before any product is returned.
Products that have been installed, test-fitted, modified, customized, or used are generally not eligible for exchange unless Yonristic Performance confirms a qualifying manufacturing defect or fulfillment error.
Any difference in price, applicable shipping expense, or other amount associated with an approved exchange may be the responsibility of the customer.
Exchange requests must be submitted through:
https://yonristic.com/pages/contact-us
Vehicle Modifications, Emissions & Legal Compliance
Customers are responsible for determining whether a Yonristic Performance product is appropriate and legal for use on their vehicle and in their jurisdiction.
Certain performance products may be intended for off-road, competition, racing, or other restricted uses depending on applicable local, state, federal, or international regulations.
Yonristic Performance does not guarantee that every product is legal for street use in every jurisdiction.
The customer is responsible for complying with all applicable vehicle, emissions, noise, inspection, registration, and other laws and regulations.
A customer's inability to legally use a product because of local regulations does not qualify as a manufacturing defect.
Product Specifications & Design Updates
Yonristic Performance continuously develops and improves its products.
Minor differences in weld appearance, fabrication details, surface finish, component shape, hardware, packaging, manufacturing method, or other non-functional characteristics may occur between production batches.
Yonristic Performance may update product designs, materials, manufacturing processes, hardware, or other components without notice when such changes do not materially reduce the intended functionality of the product.
Minor production variations that do not affect normal fitment, structural integrity, or intended operation are not considered manufacturing defects.
Limitation of Warranty Coverage
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Yonristic Performance's responsibility under this Limited Warranty is limited to addressing the covered Yonristic Performance product itself.
Yonristic Performance is not responsible for damage or expenses caused by improper installation, misuse, unrelated vehicle failures, unauthorized modifications, external components, racing conditions, improper tuning, accidents, or other circumstances outside a covered manufacturing defect.
Nothing in this policy is intended to exclude or limit any consumer rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded or limited under applicable law.
Legal Rights
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary depending on your state, country, or jurisdiction.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, limitations of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on warranty rights. Accordingly, some provisions of this policy may not apply to every purchaser.
Nothing in this policy is intended to exclude, waive, or restrict rights that cannot legally be excluded, waived, or restricted under applicable law.
