Be aware when purchasing anything from this business!! They had an engine listed for an older pickup truck, when I called to check on the condition prior to making plans to pick it up I was told the engine was in “perfect condition” therefore I made the THREE HOUR drive to Arroyo Grande. Upon showing up to pick it up the associate says “they told you it was cracked, right?” However that contradicts the “perfect condition” that was mentioned to me on the phone prior to arriving. He then proceeded to say “that’s why we’re selling it so cheap” cheap being 1500 dollars. The associate was unapologetic and rude upon being told we were assured it was in “perfect condition” prior to making the long drive and he could not have cared any less. Be aware.

I can't say enough good things about this auto salvage yard! I stumbled upon this salvage yard while searching for parts online, and I'm so glad I did. The online inventory is accurate, and the in-person experience was even better. Friendly staff, fair prices, and quality parts make this place a winner.

I had a fantastic experience at this salvage yard. The selection of parts is impressive and the prices are unbeatable. The team there went above and beyond to assist me. A definite go-to place for auto enthusiasts

Bought an engine on Jan 03, 2023 from these folks. I drove 4 1/2 hours to get it. The motor was guaranteed to be good.
The person who was to install the motor for me while I recovered from back surgery backed out on me, so I’m having to install it myself. After replacing gaskets & thermostat to eliminate leaks, while bolting up the torque converter to the flywheel, (while still on the ground) the engine rotates by hand 1/4 turn, stops with a loud tick, and will not rotate any further.
I’ve made 6 phone calls today alone, and no one answers. I also sent a Facebook message and so far have gotten no response.

Wasn't thrilled with the treatment of their customers. It wasn't just me they helped, but a few ahead of myself. So I watched them treat them as if we weren't their bread and butter, but as an inconvenience. I really wish that companies such as this would understand one thing.
If it wasn't for us buying your parts you wouldn't be here to treat us in any way. They have ok pricing on their parts. I will do business here again. Because they do have a lot of stuff. They aren't greedy so that was nice. It could have been worse I am sure. I do recommend them. Just hope they start treating everyone equally. **I must say I went back and they have gotten so much better! The cost of replacement glass is unbeatable!! Keep it up guys! Well on the right track!

Quick to answer the phone, the employees are helpful and fast, and they took my auto parts and scrap, no problem! I will recommend Max Auto salvage INC to anyone looking to part ways with junk cars/auto parts!
