Purchased 180 Awning on 23 June 26 and still to this date have not received any communication from this company.
Have called numerous times and it will ring for three rings then hang up. Have tried messaging them on their website which states it is monitored between 11am-8pm Monday to Friday with no response.
At this stage i want a refund but no way of contacting a company that clearly does not care about their reputation.
As a business owner myself who was looking at becoming a stockiest of their products, I have certainly thought again about that as customer service is the most important thing to me.

Hi Rory,
We’re sorry for the concern and frustration caused by the lack of a clear update on your 270-degree awning order.
We have located your Australian order and reviewed the communication history. Our team responded to your original message promptly to confirm whether you had received the order or collection information. However, it is clear that this response did not reach you or did not provide the clarity you needed.
We have sent you a follow-up email again today from info@openroad4wd.com. Please check your inbox and spam/junk folder, and reply directly to confirm whether you have received the awning or any collection details.
Once we hear from you, we will immediately confirm the current order status and provide the appropriate next step.

No communication
No communication, no customer service, no return calls, no return email, their chat is a bot that no one monitors. Terrible company, don't know how they have stayed in business 10 years. No one gave a steaming pile about me or my order until they got the chargeback from the credit card company then amazingly I got 5 calls in 3 days! Too little, too late!

Update: all my issues have been addressed. Daniel was awesome and has excellent customer service. I was so pleased by his customer support that I ended up ordering an awning thru him. From what I heard, they are currently working on building a better customer service team. All unlike me, be patient and all will be taken care of!
I purchased the showering awning v2 and found multiple issues.
1. not all parts were included in the shipment that was stated on the owners manual pamphlet.
2. shipping box came as if someone opened it and repackaged it.
3. they sent me a completely defective product that is unusable. the insides seemed to be installed by someone with no eyes apparently. everything was inside out, upside down, or attached in a completely wrong spot.
4. i emailed 3 times to get warranty or refund and they have yet to respond.

Openroad4wd Lack of Customer Service
Seems like they actually respond here. After purchasing their 270 awning, it arrived damaged. I have tried for a few days to reach them with no response. This awning is reportedly great, but paying what I paid and getting zero customer service is really upsetting.
Openroad4wd has since replaced the awning! Happy to have it resolved, but they need to improve their customer service.

Hi Felicia, we’re sorry for the lack of response and the frustration this caused. We have located your order for the 180-degree awning with side walls and confirmed that it was a preorder that had not yet shipped. We should have provided you with a clear update instead of leaving your messages unanswered.
Based on your request, we have cancelled the order and initiated a full refund to your original payment method. You will receive a confirmation email from info@openroad4wd.com. Depending on your payment provider, the refund may take several business days to appear on your statement.
We apologize that you had to follow up repeatedly to receive assistance. We are reviewing this communication failure internally to ensure preorder customers receive clearer updates and timely support going forward.

Hi Alejandro, we understand how frustrating it is to receive an item that appears different from what you ordered, especially when you have not been able to get a clear answer. We have reviewed the order carefully and want to verify exactly what you received so we can resolve the issue correctly.
We have located and reviewed your order. Our shipping records show that the truck cap dispatched was the model listed for your Ford F-150 order. However, we want to fully understand the difference you noticed rather than make assumptions about the issue.
Our support team has contacted you by email and requested a few photos of the product, packaging labels, and the area that appears incorrect. This will allow us to confirm whether the issue relates to the product, configuration, or vehicle fitment and provide the appropriate solution. Please check your inbox and spam folder for our message from info@openroad4wd.com, or reply directly to that email.
Once we receive the photos, we will prioritize the case and provide the next step within one business day. Whether the solution requires fitment assistance, replacement, exchange, or another appropriate resolution, our team will work with you to resolve it.

Ok so major update: originally there was some communication issues with this company but I was patient and they did get back to me! Running a business is tough and you never know what the person on the other end is going through so although frustrated, I gave them grace. They did reach out and everything was cleared up and both the awening and side walls showed up. Very excited to install this product and it's appearance even just unboxing shows it is good quality! I appreciate the team at Openroad working with me!

Hi Michael,
Thank you for updating your review and for giving us the opportunity to look into this further.
We have confirmed that the refund for your order was completed. We also understand that fulfillment activity continued around the same time, including part of the order arriving and another shipment beginning transit. We are sorry for the confusion and frustration this created.
We have reviewed your update that you would prefer to complete the order rather than keep the refund. Our team is now reviewing the full timeline across the order, payment, and fulfillment records so we can confirm the correct next step with you directly.
We are also actively building our phone support service and expect it to be available around August. Until then, our team will continue to handle your case directly by email so that your resolution does not depend on the phone service launch.
Before any additional shipment or payment is arranged, we will confirm the details and your preference with you in writing. We are also reviewing this process internally to prevent a refund and fulfillment from becoming misaligned in the future.

Hi Ton, we have reviewed your order and the communication with our support team. The storage box and mounting bracket were listed as separate items in the order. While the storage box was delivered, the mounting bracket was a preorder item with a separate fulfillment timeline.
We understand why receiving only one item created concern about the status of your order. Our support team has replied to your email and processed a refund for the mounting bracket that had not yet shipped. You will receive, or may already have received, the refund confirmation by email. Depending on your payment provider, the funds may take several business days to appear on your statement.
We apologize for the difficulty you experienced reaching us. If you need any further assistance, please reply to our email or contact info@openroad4wd.com.
STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!
I’ve had my awning for less than 3 months and I already have two small holes in it where the poles meet the material. There should be some type of reinforcement of the material in these locations in my opinion. I emailed OpenRoad4wd 4 days before even getting a response from them. This is the exact response I got from LuLu if that’s even a real person.
Hi,
First of all, I sincerely apologize for the delayed response.
And thank you for sharing the pictures with us. We really appreciate you taking the time to document the issue.
We’re very sorry to hear about the small tears on your 270° awning, especially after only a handful of uses.
Based on the photos, we would currently recommend using a waterproof repair tape or outdoor fabric repair patch to help reinforce and seal the affected areas. This is usually the quickest and most effective temporary solution to prevent the tears from spreading further.
At the same time, we’d also like to help compensate you for the inconvenience, and we can offer you a partial refund for this issue.
Please let us know your thoughts, and again we truly appreciate your support and understanding.
----------
Take care,
Lulu

Cannot believe this is a real response to my issue. Why on earth would someone patch their mistake knowing that the issue will eventually get worse in hopes by that time it would be outside the warranty period. Customer service even states in the email that it’s a temporary fix??? When asked how to proceed with shipping it back for a refund I got no response or help. I will never buy another product from this company. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO ANYONE FOR ANY OF THEIR PRODUCTS!

We have searched our order system but have not yet been able to locate an order under the name displayed on this review. We have sent you a private request for your order number and checkout email address so we can review the case promptly.
Based on the information available, the 6% charge was not retained by OPENROAD and appears to have been applied by the bank or payment provider during the transaction. However, because this issue arose in connection with a purchase from our store, we are willing to reimburse that amount once we confirm the order and payment details.
Please provide the requested information, or contact us at info@openroad4wd.com. We will review and complete the next step within one business day.

Terrible customer service & missing parts
I was initially very happy with my purchase of a shower awning and 10gal water tank for my cross country trip. I installed the shower awning and loce that. HOWEVER, I went to install the water tank and the box had "Damaged missing parts" written on one side and sure enough the mounting brackets and hardware were missing.
I emailed them and expressed my frustration as this was almost a $1000 purchase. I stated very clearly what was missing and provided pictures of the box and empty hardware box. They emailed me back asking me to confirm what was missing.....so I did. Then they wanted my order number, so I provided that. After almost 2 weeks they finally let me know they shipped out the missing parts and would email me later that day with a tracking number. They did not ever provide me with a tracking number. I emailed 4 more times to no avail. A package FINALLY arrived after 2 and a half weeks with ONE bracket and a shower hose that I was not missing and NO HARDWARE. I am so upset. I emailed them AGAIN stating that they did not send me hardware and that I also needed another bracket. I also provided pictures of the box contents.
They emailed me back asking me to confirm what I was missing. I am BEYOND BEYOND BEYOND pissed at this point, I bought this setup over 2 months ago, and I have a cross country trip in a week and I am having to push it back because a chain of people can't do their jobs. If I cannot get the mounting hardware in a timely manner I will be disputing the charge for the entire purchase as it is no use for me if I cant actually use it.

Trying to contact customer support for 23 days with no help.
I never leave reviews like this but, I received an tonneau cover that was defective. I've reached out to support nearly a dozen times. In 23 days I've been able to get a reply 3 times, all just beating around the bush with no actual support. Ive been asked the same question 3 times. I've asked for a refund. I've asked for a return label. I've asked for support in trying to fix the item. Nothing. They have been an absolute nightmare. Do not order from this company.
