This are
1) Faulty Parts- Many a time’s faulty parts are delivered to the customer. This is a major issue which has the highest number of complaints.
2) Wrong part problem- If the customer has a part A and he receives part B. Then this problem can be addressed under wrong part problem.
3) Running behind schedule-The delivery of any unit product sometimes is delayed because of the improper inventory management problems.
4) Wrong barcode problem-If the barcode of any product is differently recorded then its original one then the prices and features changes too.
