Mean Green Gear Reduction Starter 7300

Purchased a Mean Green starter in 2020. It failed after 1.5 years and was still under 2 year warranty. Mean Green made me purchase a new one and was told they would reimburse me once they received the return. Took them 5 months to refund. Now the replacement starter failed after 1.5 years. Contacted Mean Green and told me the replacement starter is not covered under warranty. Said i could return it and they will let me know how much it would cost to fix. Unreliable starters and even worse customer service. The warranty person hung up on me when I questioned him on not standing behind their poor quality products.

Bought this starter from XDP, excellent customer service but they had me work directly with Mean Green for the warranty. Buyer has to pay for return to Mean Green for warranty. No response from Mean Green, sent emails and left voicemails for 3 months. XDP did intervene to get Mean Green to call me. I had to have XDP do this twice. Once to get an RMA then again to get the replacement unit. The whole process took 6 months. Will never buy a Mean Green product again. DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE PURCHASING! Order 1789983 6/27/21

this starter worked great for 2 mos. then on a warm day the bendix failed . The plunger pushed through the end . I was stranded at the post office. walked to parts store and replaced with cheap over the counter unit. that was about 6 mos. ago. the company does not return calls or emails. i want to return my unit but can not get a return authorization.
