Procedure:
The electronic component being returned for repair should be removed from the vehicle and returned to LaTrax, along with:
1) Full payment in the form of a credit card number (MasterCard, Visa, or Discover) or money order (including shipping and handling)
2) Completed Lifetime Electronics Warranty form (available online)
Do not send the entire model, only the damaged component. The package shipped to LaTrax should be insured to cover the value of a new
replacement. LaTrax cannot be responsible for items lost in transit to LaTrax. Follow the guidelines in the section Preparing Merchandise for
Shipment online at LaTrax.com.
International Customers:
International orders must be paid by credit card (MasterCard, Visa, or Discover). Actual shipping charges will apply and are usually higher than
$5.00 U.S. If you want to approve the shipping charges prior to your product being returned, then please supply a valid e-mail address and
request approval of actual shipping charges on the Lifetime Electronics Warranty form.

Call us first! Before you begin the process of obtaining warranty or repair service, please call us at 1-888-TRAXXAS and speak with one

Additional Non-Warranty Charges
Additional charges can result from the following:
The product being returned for warranty service should be cleaned of excess dirt and grime accumulations that would hinder repair.
Excessively dirty models with large amounts of caked-on mud and oily grime may be subject to an additional cleaning charge of $25.00 US
before repairs can proceed. Avoid this potential charge by cleaning the model before returning it for service.
"Basket cases" of disassembled models returned for warranty service may be subject to additional fees for reassembling components not
related to the warranty repair, if necessary, to allow the repaired product to be adequately tested. Standard repair fees are currently $45.00/hour,
billed in 15-minute increments with a one-hour minimum. To avoid this charge, do not disassemble the model before returning it for service.
