In this comprehensive guide, we'll help you demystify the Crutchfield return policy and make the return process simple and easy.

DoNotPay will help you place a return request for any Crutchfield item you find dissatisfying and deal with the return policies of other retailers as well. Whether it is a defective pair of Rothy’s shoes, unwanted Rite Aid stuff, or sub-par Advance Auto Parts merchandise, you can count on DoNotPay to bail you out.

Crutchfield Return Policy Simplified

If you are disappointed with the car gear you purchased at Crutchfield, you have 60 days to return it. The items should be like new and with all of the parts. If that is not the case, this retailer may refuse your return.

Crutchfield may also charge you a restocking fee for items that are not in like-new condition, and that can happen if the item is:

  • Damaged due to improper packing for the return
  • Missing the original product packing material
  • Damaged from mishandling, dropping, or liquid spilling
  • Missing parts
  • Used heavily
  • Found to have a different serial number than the one originally shipped

If the item meets the standards of the Crutchfield return policy, you will be able to request a refund or replacement.

How To Make a Return to Crutchfield

To return the unwanted item to Crutchfield, you can:

  1. Send the product by mail
  2. Bring the item back to store

How To Return Your Faulty Crutchfield Product by Mail

Before shipping your return, you will need a return authorization. To get the authorization, you should sign in to your Crutchfield account or contact Crutchfield customer care via chat or by calling 1-800-316-1044.

After that, you will have to:

  1. Pack your item in the original packaging and over-box carefully, with all manuals and original accessories
  2. Attach the UPS Authorized Return Service label to your package and cover all original labels

Like most retailers, Crutchfield will deduct shipping costs from your refund after they receive the return package. For regular returns, they will provide you with a shipping label for $12 per package.

Since certain products—such as furniture, large tower speakers, or larger TVs—require special freight shipping, the return label for them might cost more:

TVs of 70” and larger$175
60” to 69” TV’s$135
