I've ordered parts from jbugs numerous times for my two sand rails. What I love about this group is there customer support. I've called more than once when I couldn't get an alternator to charge or a oil pressure sender to work. Every time I was able to talk to a support person there that answered my question. And every time they had first hand information (I think they all own bugs) and useful tips about other issue I might encounter (Thanks Andrew for the help on the pressure sender). Great group, good communication, will continue to be a customer! read more

Another shit order from these clowns. I thought I'd give them another shot but what a mistake. More crap parts and 2 weeks to receive my order. Poor at best read more

Jbugs isnt what it used be. Items are NOT in stock and give you tracking numbers to parts that arent shipped. Been waiting weeks. SCAM and GARBAGE company... literally go anywhere else. read more

Jbugs used to be recommended by everyone in the VW community... I don't know what happened but they lost their charm and have fallen off a cliff! Customer Service is now rude and condescending. NO FREE returns plus a 20% stocking fee. Will not be ordering from them again. Check out WolfsburgWest instead. read more

I just purchased my first order through Jbugs on speakers kick boxes in April 2025. When I recieved them the shipping box was perfect but the items inside were very dirty and damaged with cuts and cracks that looked terrible. I called Jbugs the same day I recieved them and complained that there not in new condition. The customer service at this company is not good and I would not order from this company again read more

The old JBugs is gone IMO... be cautious on their ship dates. it'll say 6-9 weeks but 9 months later they wont even have an answer for you or try to help in the slightest. Id stay away. read more

I was a lifelong jbugs customer. But I will not be purchasing from them again. I ordered parts from there to get free shipping but was deceived by there advert. They were advertising for a hardware kit but when it arrived it was only half the kit. Now they want to charge me $11.95 to ship a $12 dollar part that should have been included from the start. When I called them Christian told me that because I had already been charged (I didn't find out that they did not offer it as a whole kit until it arrived) I could not add another. He just told me that shipping is expensive. I went through your stuff for the free shipping but was deceived by the ad. I will not be ordering from here again. They charge you to return items. In order to make a return you have to pay for the shipping and a 20% restocking fee, otherwise I would just return what I got and order again. You have lost a customer. I hope this review helps you lose more. read more

total deserved the 1 start. they sold me an exhaust system that. :: not only did not fit my bus. but also I got a used part. scra dings and marks all around. ( they say I have to repaint it) they told me to return (pay to return) and now they said they will take as much as 60% off the price because I was installed""" really bad business!! BUY FROM AMAZON OR EBAY THIS PEOPLE ARE NOT WORTH THE EFFORT. read more

I ordered a steering wheel from them and on their page, it said I didn't need an adapter or spacer. Just the steering wheel. It's wrong. I needed to buy an adapter and spacer. And I did not get these from jbugs. Weary over priced! Research before you buy from them. read more

run away! terrible mistake buying here. no expedition, no customer service. when you do get someone rude and entitled. try anywhere else. disappointed twice. i wont be back read more

I am a 63 year old man on SSI. I am performing repairs on my friends grandmothers bug. I ordered parts from Jbugs on Sept 9. Unfortunately my USPS sent the parts back without contacting me first. i called Jbugs and told them of the problem. They were supposed to charge me again to get the new order out asap because they said that they could not send out another order until the old order was returned. That was on the 15 of Sept. I have called and called more than 5 or 6 times and left return call back messages to no avail. Not one call returned. I tried to call on the 23 no answer and no call back. on the 25 (today) I called every menu option until I actually talked with someone. The man on the other end was rude and kept using every excuse as to why I was not receiving order status emails. I receive all their ads! Now I as well as my friends grandma have to wait another week for the parts. I am writing a 0 review. Do not do business with these retards! They cannot hire temp workers to fill these busy times like I told them they should do and from the other reviews I have seen, they have had these problems for a very long time. FIRE YOUR SALES STAFF AND START OVER OR LOSE YOUR BUSINESS!!!!!!! This BS has cost me my money which food out of my dogs mouth as well as mine. As usual There is not a choice of zero rating!! If I could rat them with a negative rating I woud give them a minus 5. I was forced to give a 1 star BULLSHIT!!! read more

Bought quarter rear window rubber seals for 57 bug. Do not waste your money, they are not correct. Called support line "we install them all the time and no problem". That is a crock and bull story they were not right, no matter what we did had either a gap on the top or on the bottom. A professional also had the same problem. Ended up getting from somewhere else and install was 5 min. 5 hours of everybody's life wasted. read more

I bought rims for $530. Tell me why I received these rims chipped. I planned on putting these on a 71 super beetle that WILL be going to car shows. You want me to take these rims to a car show?? Not to mention the second I even attempt to mount these, the paint WILL chip. I am beyond embarrassed and at a loss of the disrespect of this specialty company that I trusted over another. read more

See all

Charged me for main bearings that were back ordered without telling me on the 1st. Website said it would be back in stock in a couple days. Got most of the order that week. Called on the 7th about the bearings. They said they would look into and call me back. No reply. Called them again on the 10th. Blamed it on the vendor and told me to wait another week. I told them to cxl the part. Now because my order is under 100 bucks they're going to back charge me for shipping. Not my first order with them but for sure my last. read more

I consulted with JBUGS advance of purchasing an EMPI rotor kit for my 66 bug. The kit arrived, i took it to the mechanic, there were parts missing from the kit and turns out they sent the wrong rotors for my car. Jbugs refused to let me return the $700 kit. They would happily give me a 20% discount on the correct rotor kit from EMPI. Good news, lots of other people can get EMPI brakes. read more

Never place a order with JBugs again!! Building a 67 VW Squareback and every part that they list will fit my year is completely wrong! And they will not refund until they get all parts back and then I never seen a return! This warehouse which is close to my house and they don't see anyone at will-call. The shipping for a single item that they said was in stock of course it was not. Shipping took over 10 DAYS!!! Bad customer service!! read more

Ordered 09/10 - nothing, no notification on whats going on. Called 09/21 they guy i talked to says he is shipping it out that day, i believe him. Call back again on 09/28, still hasn't shipped but they say they will get it out that day. Today is Monday 10/01 i emailed them yesterday and it turns out it still hasnt shipped. I should have paid $10 bucks more and gotten the same thing on amazon. Spend your money elsewhere read more

JBugs - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

I purchased several items for the new to me 1955 Beetle and the windshield and trim ordered came as ordered. I watched several YouTube videos for installation as it seemed possible for a handy fella to accomplish. After 3 days of attempting every trick they shared I finally agreed to take it to a automotive glass man that had done auto glass for 38 years. He thought it would be relatively easy and got the trim in the gasket fairly easily since I had done it several times before. When it came down to install it was a different story. He had to grind the glass down to be able to install it with the rubber gasket seal they supplied with it. The installation cost as much as the windshield, trim and rubber seal. I wouldn't recommend the windshield from them even though their tech says they do it all the time I trust the Auto Glass company that's done it for over 3 decades. It was the American style seal and trim package with glass. read more

Lousy customer service, and sometimes good customer service. Some good parts, some cheap. Waited for 9 months for a tail light lens... no big deal because I was waiting for other parts back ordered from them, too! Four wheel disc brake parts sketchy... they came with the wrong parking brake cables which took months to resolve. Full rubber kit... mostly good. read more

Bad bad bad, never going to biy parts in jbug, i placed a order in 2/26 72 super beetle decklid lock , i received , but the label of the package was correct but inside was for early bug (65-71) , i sent photo and explain the issue, and them he said that was a wrong label identification, he said that correct the problem, they sent me another upsss the same issue, them sent me another one with the same issue, i wadte 2 monthe witch this complain read more

The return policy is a complete joke. They refused to give me a refund on two items that never even left the shipping box and saying that they had been used which was a complete lie. Not sure who's running the return department, but they are making false claims so they don't have to pay out. Very disappointing. read more

Great communication, nice selection of parts and accessories!! I've been a customer for over 15 years with 4 different Vw models.....and still super happy with them!!! read more

How is this place in business?? They lie to consumers by advertising the items and running your credit card, knowing at time of purchase the item ordered is not in stock. Why not just list item as "out of stock". Obviously they're money hungry. Will NEVER purchase from them again. Customer service also sticks, when I called to request a refund, the rep hung up on me. They just lost an excellent customer! read more

The service since they stopped will call and having the store open for walk in's has gone down hill. The communication is terrible! Good luck getting someone to answer the phone or respond to a email. The website will say In stock but then a week later they will send a email saying oh we don't have that now. Why has it taken a week to process a order. I had ordered other parts from a competitor of j bugs and had the order processed and delivered in 3 days. I'm going on 2 weeks and still don't have a shipping conformation. Now I'm 15 mins away from j bugs but they won't do pick ups any more. If I could I would give 0 stars. I have left VM and emails about my order and still no response. read more

Real Rating: 0 Stars I feel compelled to provide this warning to potential JBug customers: Just because you can order anythng they have on their website does not mean they have the parts in stock; nor, will they communicate in any proactive manner that the parts may be on back order. I have recieved many incomplete orders that only after calling or emailing their reps with order questions to learn that the parts not recieved were on back order. Also, check large orders to see if all parts were received and let them know quickly if their are any descrepancies because they will not send them if too much time elapses. Oh, and their reps are very quick to give ANY answer, even wrong ones because thet do not appear to really want to provide excellent customer service. I experienced such trangressions more than once. I spent thousands of dollars at JBugs and I am DONE!!! I have found much better luck with companies such as Wolfsburg West, CIP1, M&T Manufacturing, Car Craft, West Coast Metric, Bug City and others. So, you have been warned. read more

It would be helpful if I get a notice of items backorder ahead of time instead of receiving an email on the same day my package arrived. Also, when I called in to cancel both backorder items the male on the phone sounded uninterested and bored... not what I was expecting on my first online order with this company. :/ read more

No customer support. Bad return policys. They make mistakes on orders and blame customer. Never return e-mails. Avoid this people. Some parts are just cheap crap. I start using other providers and Ebay, much better service. read more

Ordered crankshaft and bearings last Wednesday Nov 2, 2022 specified 3 day air was told it would arrive Monday Nov 7, 2022. Called Monday Nov 7 afternoon EST and was informed that it left the warehouse that afternoon, and that I would receive on Nov. 10. What service!! Avoid this place at all costs. Unfortunately I had to choose 1 star they deserved 0 star read more

I ordered parts on 10/5 and it is 10/18 and they said they are just busy (have all the parts in stock with no back order). Sorry but you may have taken a good thousand dollars from but I luckily found someone local. Order cancelled. Btw they don't post negative reviews on their own website. Goes to show who they really are. read more

Took them almost 2 weeks to ship my order with no valid reason for the delay. Communication was mediocre at best. As soon as I find another place to buy my vw parts I will stop ordering from them completely. read more

I ordered from Jbugs online assuming they'd be quicker than ordering from the other side of the country. Instead they appear not to care about online orders. Days after my order I called to see what was happening. One item was out of stock so they hadn't shipped anything. Or told me anything. I canceled the order, when to Bus Depot instead and got a shipping notification within the hour. TLDR - Slow, lack of communication. Go elsewhere for online shopping. read more

I hadn't had any problems until my last order. I ordered a new starter at the end of September 2019 and found out that it wasn't the problem. I called them up to return it, and they wanted me to test it. I did and sent pictures of the set up I had used to test the starter. The tech, Andrew, said I could return it for my money back, but said if there wasn't anything wrong I could get a fee. I told him that I didn't mind so long as I got my money back. It took over 2 weeks to get the return label. I sent it in and hadn't heard back form them in over a month. I called them today, 12/9/19, and the guy I talked to, Jake, could give me an answer as to why i haven't gotten a return. Just go with some one else there's about a million VW parts companies that are better out there. read more

Could not be happier with Jbugs after more than 15 purchase experiences. Their products are top quality, support is great and the prices are right there, just below everyone else for the same items. When I made a mistake and ordered something by mistake, they were quick to take it back and make it super easy to correct. Normally, it takes a lot to make me do a review. JBugs is just that good. Very satisfied and will be getting my Bug parts from them from no on. read more

I placed an order on a Monday and checked the shipping status on Thursday morning. I was told it would ship either later that day or Friday. I checked again the following Monday and was then told it would be shipped in 2-3 days. Their website claims shipping is slow due to COVID but as of March 2022 this is a BS excuse. Taking my business elsewhere. read more

Where do I even begin. From sending me incorrect products, to taking months fulfill even the simplest orders, to even taking days just to respond to an email, Jbugs has to be the worst-run online outlet I have ever dealt with. Their products may be good enough and the prices aren't bad but please do business with them at your own risk because headaches will absolutely ensue. read more

Good experience. Professional response when inquiring about tracking my shipment. Great resource. read more

My order became confused and sent to the wrong address. I understand challenges can occur. What makes the most difference to me is when someone steps in and redirects the chaos. David understood my extenuating circumstances and fast tracked a solution. His idea served my needs and respected the needs of JBugs. This was a large order. I am pleased that good things have happened. I've read the negative feedback and I respond if reasonable people work through the challenges, good things can happen. So long as the spirit of David is at JBugs, I'll continue to shop there--A lot. JWR read more

Horrible people to deal with. They send the wrong parts then expect you to pay for return shipping. Won't return phone calls requested to support, stonewall tactics so you'll give up and keep wrong parts. I had to call and ask about an order and was told they forgot to ship it. That was a week lost to waiting and another week to wait for the shipment. read more

This place SUCKS!! If they had a "Minus area" I would go with -10!! We ordered a part, they put the order through saying it was IN STOCK the first time, Next day we called, because I find out that if I come get them, it would be quicker, NO, THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THEM?? So we wait, week later, OH SORRY, our mistake, will be just a little longer, NOW BEEN A MONTH!!! When you go to a "Cart" to order, any REAL SHOP will have said OUT OF STOCK, not take your money and run?? NEVER EVEN A NOTIFICATION on when it would be here?? I have been building VW's for 40 years, and never had such a Co. with incompetence. read more

Last time. I haven't ordered alot from them but without fail every order has been problematic. CIP1 is really the only way to go. They always have a story to tell. read more
