On October 30, 2009 I purchased a Nodic Track T5 Treadmill (24955) from Sears. The Sears associate explained to me that if I had any problems a part would be replaced or the whole treadmill would be replaced if necessary. I had my delivery of the treadmill on November 6, 2009. Upon setting up the treadmill the delivery technician found a broken cross bar. He called Sears from my home and had Sears order the new part. Two days later, 11-8-09, Sears called me and said I needed to order the part myself. So on November 9, 2009 I called in and ordered the cross bar. I was told that I would recieve the part in a week. On November 18, 2009, I still had not recieved the part so I called Nordic Track and was told the part was out of stock andthey had no idea when they would be able to ship the part. So I then called Sears and explained I have a broken treadmill and can't seem to get a part for it. I asked if they had this treadmill in stock at the store and they said they had 3 of them in stock. So I requested they bring me one from the store and change it out with mine. After checking with management I was told yes they could do that. Then I recieved a call later that day and was told that was not going to be possible after all and they would have to order another one, plus it would be about 2 weeks to get it in and set up delivery. They then asked if I could bring the broken one back to the store. I paid $65.00 to have the first one delivered less than 3 miles from the store. I told them they could take the broken one when they bring me a working treadmill. On November 19, 2009 I am feeling very unsatisfied with this whole situation and decided I would just be better getting a refund. I went to the store and asked for a refund of the treadmill and the delivery charge and was told the delivery charge was non-refundable. I told them, so you are making me to pay a delivery charge for a product that was not usable. His answer again was, its not refundable. I find this to be very poor customer service and will not consider making any future major purchases with Sears. Thank you.

To Anthony Vasquez,
My name is Brian and I’m part of the Sears Cares Escalations team. First allow me to apologize for the inconveniences of this issue. This should have been handled very differently. You were given incorrect information as to Sears being able to handle part or service issues with the Nordic Trac. Nordic Trac does not allow any Retailer to work on their products, so a replacement should have been authorized and progressed immediately instead of taking your valuable time trying to get it serviced. Also, if Nordic Trac or the store doesn’t have current stock, we would set the replacement for the first day actual stock would be available from Nordic Trac. Of course with any replacement, if we don’t have that model in stock, you have the amount you actually paid available towards any model you wanted to re-select to and we would process the Exchange.
Once the delivery is actually completed, and when the customer keeps the product, there is technically no refund available for the delivery. Naturally, since you don’t have the Nordic Trac, you were never able to use it and you were within the original 90 days of purchase, you should not have been charged for the delivery and we would like to help get this resolved for you. At your convenience, please contact my office via email at searscares@searshc.com so you don’t have to continue to be frustrated. In the email, please provide a contact phone number and the phone number the Nordic Trac was purchased under (if different than the contact phone number) and we will call you directly. Also, please provide the screen name (Anthony Vasquez) used to post here for reference to your issue, and we do look forward to talking to you soon.

Thank you,
Brian J.
