About E & J Used Auto Parts

I should have read the reviews prior to ever buying from here. If I could give this scam hole a no star review, I would. I drove 3 hours, purchased a used engine at the agreed price from a prompt email quote, phone call follow up. After arriving and making payment I waited over an hour to have it loaded. The engine appearance was poor, and looked very rough! However Jenfrey seemed trustworthy after we had a some good talk through a language barrier about business and “trust”. I mentioned the accessories, externals, and leaks looked bad. He said from what I could understand, you just switch it over to your own. Ok. I didn’t draw any conclusions from the appearance of the engine, drove 3 hours home, trusting it ran well which was most important to me. I spent countless hours, removing, and replacing with my personal good or new externals from my engine along with thoroughly cleaning the unbelievable thick grime off the engine, also replacing every external gasket, and seal, water pump, thermostat housing. There was white builders caulk on the valve covers from someone attempting to seal oil leaks, and the knock sensor wire was completely melted and also replaced (overheated at some point) the engine was then installed and started and when brought to normal operating temperature, it became very low on power and weak. also discovered an oil leak between the head and cylinder (cyl 6). Which was dripping, burning on the manifold. This was most concerning. After follow up contact and poor communication with emails, phone calls with “the warranty department” . They requested video of the issue, and explanation. I finally received a phone call regarding a warranty replacement. A day was chosen and arranged so I could remove the engine first . I had to also remove all of my personal, good or new externals off of this trash engine prior to bringing it back for a replacement. I drove 3 hours back to receive my replacement. After initial contact when I arrived waiting 20 minutes , then showing my receipt, receiving an updated one. I was prompted with multiple “20 minutes waits” by multiple employees. Everyone of them said “20 minutes” and then “20 more minutes” I waited patiently. I was eventually then directed to have the return trash engine removed from the back of my truck through the gate, and the replacement loaded.i noticed the replacement engine hanging from the forklift and I was then asked where the intake was? Then another worker started taking parts off the replacement engine. I had brought the parts originally purchased on the engine with me in a separate box and showed them ,since why the hell would I bolt on all the trash parts it came with since what they gave me on when the engine was trash anyways? This was time wasted on top of time wasted. Does my time not matter? Clearly it doesn’t. They then prompted what I assume was the warranty department employee outside . She explained to me they could not accept the engine being returned in the condition it was in and I would have to pay to cover the parts that weren’t assembled on it. I could not believe what I just heard? I drove 3 hours to return a trash engine I was sold after investing countless hours of traveling, labor, cleaning, installing, and replacing parts to make this engine worthy ? I don’t get upset often, however this really hit deep. It was just plain wrong! THIS IS BAD BUSINESS!!!!! I then closed my tailgate and proceeded to drive 3 hours home with the trash engine they originally sold me. They will respond to this, however, you have been warned. I don’t know how this business stays in business with these practices.This is by far the worst of the worst. I trust people, however they have lost mine. I am completely mind blown. Lesson learned, spend the extra money, buy a new or remanufactured engine, rebuild yours or buy somewhere with better reviews. My mistake is that I looked at the overall reviews. Do business elsewhere.
