Steering rack/pinion from Meridian Auto Parts

I purchased a steering rack and pinion from Meridian Auto http://www.meridianautoparts.com/ and (www.discountsteering.com).

The part is broken/faulty.

They will not cover for any of the auto shop bill I have incurred or the rental car. Luckily my mechanic feels so badly for me, they are not going to charge me to have the new part installed.

Meridian/discountsteering.com did not want to listen to anything. I had to pay another $225 deposit to have them ship out another part to my mechanic.

This company is based in San Diego, California.
