Refund policy
NexDrive™ — REFUND AND RETURN POLICY
IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
The NexDrive™ AFM/DFM Disabler is designed exclusively for GM V6/V8 vehicles equipped with Active Fuel Management (AFM) or Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM) systems. Not all GM vehicles are equipped with AFM/DFM, and installing the device on a non-compatible vehicle may cause check engine lights, diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), limp mode, drivability issues, or other unintended vehicle behavior.
It is the customer's sole responsibility to verify that their specific vehicle year, make, model, and engine type is listed on our compatibility chart before placing an order. A full compatibility list with 80+ supported models is available on our product page, organized by make (Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Buick, Pontiac, Holden, Saab, Saturn, Isuzu, and Suzuki).
NexDrive™ is not liable for and does not offer refunds, returns, replacements, or compensation for:
- Vehicles that are not listed on our compatibility chart
- Check engine lights, error codes, limp mode, or any drivability issues caused by installing the device on a non-compatible vehicle
- Vehicles where AFM/DFM is not present, has been previously deleted via a mechanical delete kit, ECU tune, or other aftermarket modification
- Vehicles that have been modified in a way that alters the factory OBD-II communication protocol
- Customer error in confirming vehicle compatibility before purchase
- Damage, malfunction, or adverse vehicle behavior of any kind resulting from use on a vehicle not listed on our compatibility chart
- Any repair costs, towing expenses, diagnostic fees, or consequential damages arising from installation on a non-compatible vehicle
If the device is installed on a non-compatible vehicle and causes any adverse effects, immediately unplug the device from the OBD-II port. The device does not modify or reprogram the ECU — removing it will restore the vehicle to its factory default state. NexDrive™ assumes no responsibility for any costs or damages incurred during the period the device was installed on a non-compatible vehicle.
If you are unsure whether your vehicle is compatible, contact us BEFORE ordering with your year, make, model, and engine size — we will confirm for free. We strongly encourage all customers to verify compatibility prior to purchase. Contacting us takes less than a minute and can prevent issues entirely.
By completing your purchase, you acknowledge that you have reviewed the compatibility chart and confirmed that your vehicle is listed as a supported model, or that you accept full responsibility for any issues arising from installation on a non-compatible vehicle.
To protect both our customers and our business from errors and fraudulent claims, all issues related to incorrect, missing, or defective items are handled under the following verification process.
By placing an order with NexDrive™, you agree to the terms outlined below.
Orders placed for time-sensitive needs are placed at the customer's own discretion. Refunds, cancellations, or chargebacks will not be honored due to late delivery when the order has been shipped and tracking shows the package is in transit or delivered.

Product Performance
The NexDrive™ AFM Disabler is a plug-and-play OBD-II device that locks your GM engine in full-cylinder mode. It does not modify your ECU and is fully reversible by unplugging.
We do not offer refunds or returns for:
- Subjective performance expectations
- Fuel economy changes (the device disables cylinder deactivation, which may result in a marginal fuel economy difference of 0–0.5 MPG)
- Battery drain from leaving the device plugged in while the vehicle is parked for extended periods (we recommend unplugging if your vehicle will sit unused for 2+ days)
- Pre-existing engine damage, lifter failure, or mechanical issues that occurred before installing the device
- Dissatisfaction with exhaust note, throttle response, or driving feel changes
If your unit stops functioning after a period of normal use, contact us to discuss replacement options under our satisfaction guarantee (single-unit full-price purchases) or lifetime warranty (if purchased as an upsell).
Shipping & Delivery
All orders include free shipping as advertised on our website and product page. Delivery timeframes are estimates and not guaranteed. NexDrive™ is not responsible for carrier delays, weather events, customs holds, or other circumstances beyond our control.
Orders cannot be cancelled once shipped. Refunds or chargebacks will not be issued for packages that show tracking as in transit or delivered.
Abuse, Fraud & Chargebacks
We reserve the right to deny any claim that:
- Shows signs of misuse, abuse, or fraud
- Contains inconsistent or misleading information
- Is filed outside the stated 7-day verification window
