I recently bought an engine for my 2005 Mercedes, and everything went smoothly. I arrived with my pickup, paid in cash, and was on my way in no time. Austin assisted me in finding the engine and ensured it matched my VIN perfectly. Thanks again, Austin!

I had it installed and it worked perfectly!!!!

Straight up SCAM DON'T EVEN BOTHER SHOPPING HERE!!!
We purchased a motor they said was tested and guaranteed a 90 day warranty but they sent the engine to us over two months after the purchase to offset their warranty. Installed the motor and BOOM, smoke out the exhaust, defective unit from the start. They kept saying they will send someone to pick up the motor and never did to further offset their warranty period- so we drove 2 hours down to return the motor to them. They took the motor then claimed 2/3 heat tabs were removed meaning it overheated so they weren't going to cover anything. IT NEVER EVEN RAN CORRECTLY AFTER INSTALLATION.

Nothing but crooks, dishonest guys, and money grabbing thugs. Filed the dispute already with my Bank I'll never do business with them again.

Today I was on my way to Stockton when my tire blew up. My car was smoking but my check engine light was not on. I had the oil changed last week so it cldnt be oil. The ground was shaking and felt like an earthquake. very nervous. I couldn't make it to the side of the road so I made it to a safe zone. still on the freeway but in-between the center the divides the freeway. hundreds of cars past me by while I was standing outside my car. Everyone stared but noone stooped.

I called my insurance nutbof course i was caller 1000. At least it felt like it (lol) as soon as they answered this guy named Larry stopped and told me he saw me and decided to come back because he feared if he didn't no one wld come and sun would be going down soon. He smiled and said " I don't know what's wrong with our country not helping others. I was very happy to see him but also very nervous because I was all alone. He sensed my nervousness and treated me like a niece. Very professional. Told me to be careful and stand back so I'm not hit by a car. He was so nice that he even made sure to not get any dirt on the back if my trunk seat as he was getting out my spare tire.

You don't see this breed of kindness anymore. To top it all off. He did all the work to put the spare tire on and then realized it was very low. 'See attached photo" He told me he had to remove the donut tire off because he said it would be unsafe to drive back to elk grove with the tire so low. He told me we cld ride together . Being the nervous girl I am ..I was hesitant to get in the car with him. He then told me to stay in my car and to be safe, he gave me his Driver's License and business card and told me he would take my tire to get air and bring it back. He said the id was to make me feel safer.

I thanked God for watching over me. He came back put the tire on and didn't ask for anything in return. He said God bless me. I returned his ID but kept his card. I wanted to come here and write a review because ill never go to the shop because i dont live anywhere near the shop. Larry was a pleasure to be around. Simply kindhearted. He too had a donut tire but made mine priority.

I was afraid i
wld be stuck in Stockton for our waiting on roadside assiistance. This guy can be trusted to do the right thing. He told me he injured his eye working on a car which hindered his eye but yet he made sure i was safer than he was while working on the Car with flying cars not paying attention to stopped vehicles.

See attached pics..I hope he doesn't mine if I post the pics. I took them while I was there for safety.

Thank you Larry for being such a great Samaritan. May God bless you , your family and place of work.

PLEASE BUY SOMEWHERE ELSE!! the warranty means nothing and they do not CARE about their customers. Paid $2500 for a motor that did not work and have only got run arounds from staff. Will have to settle in court. if you need help claiming a suit remember you have 2 yrs no matter what their contract says. google small claims court.

There was a mix up on the part they sold me. Austin jumped in and took care of the problem. Thanks Austin.

Awful experience. Called ahead for a price check on a window regulator. Was told he had one in stock for 50 dollars. Great. I drove down and when I arrived I was charged 80 dollars and told to come back in an hour. Two hours later I called to see if the part was ready. It was not and I was told to come down at 4:30 for pick-up. So 4 hours after my initial visit I showed up to pick up my part and when I arrived I was told they do not have the part at all. I was given a full refund but the whole ordeal took over 5 hours for nothing. Wasting my whole day. This place is very unprofessional. I would look elsewhere before trying your luck here.

Had a $215 store credit, no date on invoice that they fill out. Came to get a $30 parts and they would not accept my credit due to no date on the invoice that they fill out. These people are know for this kind of customer service. Wish I would of done some resurch before coming here.

If I could give a zero star review I would. There is not enough space to type out my complaints of this business. During my cross-country trip, this business alone cost me hundreds of dollars in overnight hotel expenses, ubers, etc. by stringing me out for nearly a week. After paying for "overnight shipping" my part still had not arrived after four days. It never arrived. On my fourth day of calling to locate my part I was told that they "were not going to do business with me. Did not want to deal with it." I was also told two days earlier that "everyone here has been lying to you and the part has not left the shelf." Again, I do not have the ability to write out how disappointed and frustrated I was with this business. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Even the Sacramento area repair shops will no longer do business with them! A refund was given with no explanation or apologies of their bad business practice.
