FCP Groton service, defective parts report 200

Ordered some ball joints from them about a year ago, website clearly showed them being maunfactured by TRW which is what I wanted as that is the OEM maunfacturer for VOLVO ball joints and tie rod ends. What I received was MOOG and when I called I was told they were the same which is a load of %^&*&%*. Turns out as i have found out later on is that TRW is no longer making either which really s%^*ks because they were heavy duty and built to last. I had replaced the outer tie rods with some after market crap and they lasted all of 30K miles. They were only like 15 bucks so you get what you pay for and buyer beware.
