Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Are your remanufactured calipers as reliable as new ones?
A: Absolutely. Our remanufacturing process is not a simple rebuild. We disassemble each core, replace all wear items (seals, boots, pistons if needed), machine critical surfaces, and apply a new corrosion-resistant finish. Each unit is then tested to perform to original specifications, offering reliability equal to new at a lower cost.
Q: How does your core exchange program work?
A: When you purchase a remanufactured caliper, you are often charged a core fee. Upon returning your old, rebuildable caliper (the "core") to us or an authorized distributor, that fee is refunded. This program ensures a steady supply of cores for remanufacturing and reduces waste.
Q: Can I get calipers for older or less common vehicle models?
A: Cumberland Auto Parts maintains an extensive catalog covering a wide range of models and model years. While coverage for very rare models may be limited, we encourage you to contact our sales team with your specific VIN or part number for the most accurate availability information.
Q: What is included in your warranty?
A: We stand behind our products with a strong limited lifetime warranty for the original purchaser. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship. It is essential to follow proper installation procedures and use compatible brake fluid for the warranty to remain valid. Please request the full warranty document for complete terms and conditions.
Q: Do you offer international shipping for B2B orders?
A: Yes, we regularly serve international distributors and large fleet operators. We can handle export documentation, palletization, and work with trusted freight forwarders to deliver your order to its destination efficiently.
