Kooks Headers & Exhaust Warranty INFORMATION
Kooks Headers & Exhaust offers a limited lifetime warranty, covering material and workmanship, to the original purchaser for the original vehicle on which the product was installed. Kooks products installed on competition applications or made with mild steel will carry a 1-year limited warranty also covering material and workmanship. Discontinued/Obsolete Parts will not be covered, but can be sent in for an estimate on repair.
This warranty shall apply only if Kooks identifies a material or workmanship defect on the examined product, at which time Kooks will repair or replace the product. Kooks is not responsible for any loss, inconvenience, personal injury, or damage including, but not limited to, towing, installation or removal costs, shop fees, or other expenses. Kooks liability is expressly limited to the amount paid at the time of purchase for the product received.
Customers are responsible for inspecting parts upon delivery, and Kooks Warranty Registration must be completed upon receipt of the product to receive warranty coverage. Failure to file Warranty Registration will void Kooks warranty terms within 30 days of receiving your product. Kooks will not warranty any product that has been damaged due to collision, misuse, off-road use, improper installation, removal, or modification, i.e. cut, welded, wrapped, etc. Kooks warranty does not cover naturally occurring rust through or corrosion due to exposure to chemicals or salt. This warranty does not cover material fatigue cause by heat, excessive vibration, rich or lean operating conditions, the use of 2-step launch control, or other aftermarket modifications not available from the OEM manufacturer.
Ceramic coating does not void Kooks warranty, however the coating is not covered. Any issues with delivered products (i.e. damaged parts, missing components, etc.) must be reported within 30 days of product receipt.
Claimed defective products may only be returned to Kooks with a Returned Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number and will be shipped at the buyer’s expense, unless otherwise stated by a Kooks representative. Kooks is not liable for products damaged in transit during the RMA process. Returns and/or warranty claims will not be considered without a copy of your sales receipt. Kooks reserves the right to refuse a return and/or warranty claim if any of the above criteria are not met. The returned product will need to include your name, address, daytime phone number, RMA number, and a copy of your sales receipt.
Kooks does not guarantee any specific sound or performance gains after the installation of our products. Unless otherwise stated Kooks cannot 100% guarantee proper fitment when our products are used in conjunction with another aftermarket manufacturers product. Due to a variety of factors, Kooks strongly recommends that all customer vehicles are Dyno tuned after the installation of our long-tube header systems.

Kooks Mufflers
Kooks Headers & Exhaust Mufflers come with a 1-year limited replacement warranty. The muffler in question would need to be assigned an RMA number and will be subject to the same warranty policy outlined above. If Kooks determines that the failure was caused by impact damage, the claim will be denied. If Kooks determines that there was a manufacturing defect, the muffler will be repaired or replaced and shipped back to the customer at no charge. If Kooks finds neither impact damage or manufacturing defects on the muffler in question, we can offer a replacement muffler at a discounted rate.
Catalytic Converters
High-flow performance race cats are meant only for use on naturally aspirated vehicles. Any application with forced induction must have GREEN cats to be eligible for Kooks warranty terms. Furthermore, we strongly recommend upgrading to our GREEN cats if the vehicle will be producing more than 550 RWHP.
Kooks Headers & Exhaust GREEN Cats (EPA Certified) come with a 2-year/ 50k mile limited warranty, while our high-flow performance race cats come with a 1-year limited replacement warranty.
