Always have a good experience with this place. You are buying used parts so make sure you ask the grade and mileage, prices definitely vary on them, I always make sure to get the good ones and have always had a good experience. read more

Do not buy with this business or with Jake Amundson. They will keep your vehicle for months and then say it will be done in five days. Call you and tell you engine is bad but they can get another one for a price. Paid 4,000 PayPal and still don't have my truck. He is holding it hostage because he wants cash. He changed the price after we agreed on 3,500. He is not trustworthy and his workers aren't either. Run car away from this business!!!!! read more

I had a great experience with this business. They were quick and accurate with delivery and sent me everything I needed. Motor is in much better shape than I was expecting. read more

Do not buy from this business especially Jake Anundson. He will take your money and parts and leave you with nothing. 5K for crap engine that lasted 63 miles. read more

Jake was amazing. He's very straight to the point. Kept my car for about a year so I can save up the money to give him for my transmission. He worked with me, and waited. Any other place would've impounded my car. He's great as long as you communicate with him about your needs. read more

This story may seem unreal but it is all True. My 2014 Prius had a blown valve cover. Apparently a common issue at 175K miles. I found a new engine on line and a company who claimed to do all the Ubers etc in town. I left the car while out of town for a week. The owner called to say-The car is done and oh by the way your a/c is not working. This is mid June. Anyone in Phoenix with a bad a/c knows it very well. So I said it worked when I brought it in. He says "Prove it". I went to pick up the car and drove it directly to the nearest Toyota dealer who confirmed the compressor was ruined during installation. $2.5k later I had a new A/C. Don't let me forget to mention that as I drove out of the MTD service I saw the windshield was broken. I stopped and pointed to the windshield. Again it was like that when I brought it in. There is no talking with complete liars so I left. Meantime they refuse my calls. I checked and found several judgements against the business filed with MC County. My bad for not checking these idiots out ahead of time. Note: I have pictures of the windshield and the greasy fingerprints left on the seat and headliner but this review limits file size so you don't get those. read more

Told MWD that Vehicle had Neutral Switch Malfunction. Vehicle doesn't know what gear it is in so it refuses to start. Asked them to replace Transmission. After arguing about no start, told me to pick up the vehicle after paying $250 "restocking." Took my vehicle back to the original shop and will pay a little more to get some respect and a transmission that wasn't sitting open in a field in Texas... Oh and a 1 year parts and labor warranty on the transmission... I think anyone that needs work should not take it to these guys. Spend a few hundred more and get a reputable place... and a warranty... read more

ordered a transmission for $700 shipped, they said it would be a couple days. I was charged $850 and still didnt have it 3 weeks later. I called for money back and they made excuses and got me a transmission 4 days later. unit was rusty and gross, installed it anyway. pulled drain plug and 2 gallons of water poured out. I ordered from them 1 other time about 8 years ago, it was a 1 year warranty. the t case failed in 1 week and they gave me another but said "no more warranty cuz i used it getting the new one" 0 for 2 with these clowns and looks like others have experienced the same by the reviews read more

I have dealt with these guys many times and have always been very satisfied with their results (condition & price of parts)! Their engines, transmissions and transfer cases are reliably sourced from high quality yards and have always gotten to me in great condition. I usually am helped by Scott P, Gabe or Jake and am taken care of every time. It's nice to buy refurbished/used parts from local guys who know what they're doing. read more

I called to find a used transmission for my f250 super duty a couple months ago and it worked great! Thanks Jake !!

**update 2 months later, Runnnn!!! Away as Fast As you CAN!!! Do NOT BUY here, I repeat do Not buy here. I contacted them, to make them aware my Supposedly new Reman engine, was burning oil and blowing white smoke. They made a poor excuse about the oil that was being used and have not answered back to my phone calls or text! Run fast as you can don't buy nothing here, I'm very serious! I my self own a business and would never, I mean ever treat a customer the way they treat there customers, by ignoring them after you pay thousands for a engine! Runaway now and fast! read more

Do not use this company. We purchased an engine from them almost a year ago (11/17/22) and never received the engine or a refund. We mare out of $5,000. I have called over and over and gotten now where. When I asked for a corporate number I was told "1-800-eat-my-ass" and was hung up on by an employee name Jason. Then was told by another employee that the manager by the name of "Tina" would be in at 2pm. I called at 2pm and was told there is no "Tina" that works for the company. I was then hung up on multiple times by a gentleman by the name of Jake Anundson who refused to give me the corporate phone number for the company. This is the most unprofessional company I have ever dealt with. Their sales team is horrible, demeaning and unprofessional. read more

We received fantastic service. We called in needing a new engine and the guys there were really helpful and took the time to go over everything else I needed to get my car working again. I appreciate their service and will be back again. Highly recommend. read more

SHADY COMPANY TO DEAL WITH ! This has been a horrific experience for anyone to go through ! My boyfriend got an engine from this company with a warranty and they claim it had been a previously tested engine. Then, he paid a mechanic a hefty amount to install it not expecting any problems. The engine was faulty and when he called this company , they gave him the Royal runaround ! Different so called "Managers " got on the phone and falsely promised they would take care of it! The nightmare continued for over 3 weeks ( while the car was in the mechanics shop , asking for storage fees while he was being given false promises to replace the engine from this company) this company would not vouch for the faulty engine !! FINALLY they agreed to take the engine back and for him to have it ready for the shippers to pick it up. He then had to pay the mechanic to uninstall the engine and have it ready( another cost incurred) Four times, he prepared the engine for pick up and finally it was picked up and returned!! The responsibility for shipping was left for him to arrange to pick up . Several times they promised him a refund and it never showed up! This engine cost more than a new engine and the headaches of dealing with this company were pathetic. read more

These people will lie and lie for a nothing sale and drag it out weeks. When you call them out and ask why all the lies all you can get back is f--- you I've been doing this for 25 years blahblah. All your had to do was say no I cant help you. Instead I got lies and BS and very mad customer. A 4 to 5 day transmission delivery well past 3 weeks at this point. This was second time having problems with these clowns. So I will take that as my fault for being dumb enough to call back. read more

Midwest Transmission Distributors was awesome especially Jake who took care of me! My 2012 Toyota Corolla engine went out as I was driving back from California and I also had a crack radiator. After going to several mechanic shop, Midwest transmission distributors had the best price so I went for it! They got the job done at a very reasonable time! My Corolla drove smooth like a silk! Literally drove like a brand new car and I'm impressed! Give them a try they won't let you down! read more

Bought an engine and has it installed from these individuals. Regardless of the numerous issues with scheduling the installation. I was quoted $850 for engine $750 for install. When I pick it up each were $1000. $400 difference right from the start. I paid it because I just wanted to be done. Also be advised the warranty only covers block and heads, even though the say 90 day engine warranty. Gaskets and seals were bad on the engine they sold and said it was not part of the warranty and "any customer should know they should change that at the time they buy a used engine." read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Doesn't care about you or your needs. No one seems to want to say anything to them so of course they keep doing whatever they want. Not worth your time just find somewhere else. He's screwed over my brother on multiple occasions and it's obvious they could care less about the outcome. Wish I could say something different but unfortunately that's the sad truth. read more

Very Rude to my wife called her ignorant for not selling them core engines for half price.

BUYER BEWARE ** This is not a salvage yard, they buy cheap high mileage engines from other yards and have it shipped blind to you.. bought an engine with 106K, Tyler Ellis, sent me a picture and vin# of a motor with 106k, then turned around and bought a motor from a completely different yard, the motor has 179k, when we call to discuss the issue no one will help.. this company is allowing its employees to commit fraud. read more

My 04 Chevy engine went out at the worst possible time!!!! Midwest got me a new engine and installed it in just a few days and I was back on the road. Midwest saved me so much time and money. I would highly recommend Midwest!! read more

A rebuilt transmission was purchased with a warranty. After it was installed, it started making a rattling noise so bad the neighbor asked when it was going to be fixed because it was waking her up in the morning. One call was made and dead air was received. Another call was made which resulted in a voicemail being left. 7 days after leaving the voicemail asking how to pursue a warranty claim, no return call we'd received. An Attorney General complaint was filed and a response was received from that complaint 46 days after it was filed. Because the transmission was not producing an error code and did not have metal shavings in the transmission fluid they said no repair would be made even though it's making a terrible rattling noise. It was also stated in so many words that noises and inferior workmanship/parts should be expected because of the age of the car even though cars have been owned from every continent that makes cars manufactured between 1970 and 2014, including a Rolls Royce Silver Seraph, and nota single one has had a problem. Also, the core charge of $250.00 was never refunded after the old transmission was sent back (at my expense) as was advertised. The recommendation is to go elsewhere, like Used Remanns, for an engine/transmission need. read more

These guys are Great! Best customer service in valley. I needed a transfer case for 2006 Toyota Sequoia with actuator motor intact. Jake was able to find exactly what I needed in couple days. Jake was very courteous, responsive and very professional. I recommend MWD to anyone in need of used auto parts. -Prit read more

I was promised an engine within two weeks but Tim didn't even start the process for over 3. It took me 3 1/2 months to get my engine with a price increase and several phone calls to get my merchandise. Upon installation, I found that the heads were never re-manned and I had to pay extra to have it torn down and redone like it should have been in the 1st place. Call after call trying to get a replacement head (per our contract) and to date (over a year later) I STILL HAVE NOT RECIVED MY REPLACEMENT PART! DO NOT USE THESE CROOKS or trust Tim. He will promise you everything and give you nothing! read more

BUYERS BEWARE!!! Do your research before you purchase ANYTHING from Midwest Transmission Distributors!!!!! If I could choose negative stars I certainly would! They are not BBB Accredited - however have an F rating on the BBB website because they get so many complaints about their product and lack of customer service! We ordered a transmission from them, had it put in, and it did not work. We took our vehicle to a dealer to find out that they sent us the WRONG transmission! When i called to dispute the product, Marco made it seem like they were doing me a favor giving me a refund - are you kidding me! You sent me the wrong transmission - and on top of this - I have a $600 bill with the dealer, that he told me he would pay for, and then backed out. Do not buy from this company! They lack integrity and they have no controls in place to ensure that you are getting the product that you ordered! read more

don't buy anything from them. its not worth it. scam artists. sold me an engine that was supposed to be rebuilt with a one year warranty. engine has problems and they refuse to do anything to honor the warranty unless i go through bullshit that would cost more than actually having the car repaired. not only that but they were assholes and rude the whole time i was on the phone with them. constantly putting me on hold, then talking to me like an asshole. they were rude and refused to help or even speak to my mechanic to find out what was going on with the car in any way. read more

BUYER BEWARE! Physically inspect in person anything you are thinking of buying from Midwest Transmission Distributors. Make sure to get everything in writing and read all fine print. Recently I purchased what was supposed to be a "complete liftout" Vortec 5.3 engine with transmission. I was provided with a VIN number and a picture of the engine which I was told, "was still in vehicle." I did a vin check to find out that it reflected that it was a 2005 Silverado with close to 70k miles on it. The day of delivery, I got a call saying that "we had to separate the transmission from the engine when we pulled it out." In fact, salesman put "mechanic" on the phone to explain situation. All said, the engine, transmission, and gas pedal all arrived on a broken pallet and hardly appeared like the fresh pullout described. they also had stock numbers painted on the components. Additionally, the O2 sensors were cut off and in a box along with yet another vintage MAF and no air filter ducting as promised. At time of sale I was assured the O2 sensors would be still attached to assembly. In the end, I took pictures and numbers to two dealers who both confirmed that this engine and ECM was from a 2004, the transmission from a 2002 and the gas pedal yet from another vintage. They also showed that it would have come out of a "summit white" vehicle and the picture showed it was clearly a different color all together. Upon these discoveries I was totally unsatisfied with purchase and I wanted to return it immediately for product quality issues. There was an uncomfortable phone exchange with the once pleasant salesman and I was surprised by a female voice (as I was unknowingly put on speakerphone). She argued and spoke over me and she (in an unpleasant tone) wanted to know "what difference it made that these parts were not from same vehicle as long as they would be compatible?" I explained the obvious- that this is not the product I paid for and that it made a big difference whether the vehicle has 70k or 150k miles on it! There is a clearly obvious difference in value and integrity of product. She never identified herself and I wanted to know who I was speaking with and was not answered. Ultimately, she told her salesman to take the engine back and it appeared the phone was hung up. There is a big difference between the pleasant sale and after purchase should anything be not quite right. Issue resolved: Got full refund, but not without a hassle---- When asking for refund, they wanted 25% restocking fee and the delivery fee for the return. Again, buyer beware! Get delivery and pick up signed for. This would have been really difficult if I weren't local and there was interstate freight and independent carriers. Read all the fine print for restocking, core return (up to $1000) and remember that whatever warranty is provided would most likely be void if you parts or engine were installed by anyone other than a certified mechanic. Don't forget to also check out other ratings from the BBB and other online feedback. read more

Paid for a used part from them and they charged me $150 for freight service (hazardous material since it was a fuel tank). Ended up shipping UPS Ground with no hazardous service (confirmed with UPS). Tank arrived partially damaged and they refused to credit the difference between what was originally agreed upon and the shipment route they decided to use on their own. I was hoping to use them in the future but quickly learned that it was a different level of customer service once a payment was made. They said they had 'no control' over shipping. read more

If i could give them a negative 0 i would. They rebuilt an engine for me. for a scion TC 06 and after a month the engine failed again. I returned the engine after having to re pull it out of the car all over again. and they spent 3 months with the engine giving me the run around calling them daily and giving me a ton of excuses. I finally get the engine back i put it back in the car and then the check engine light comes on about oil pressure issue in the engine. I change all the sensors and take it to several mechanics to have them review the engine. I finally find through a mutual friend a Tech at the Toyota dealership they run a diagnostic and check out the engine and tells me they used faulty parts and would need to be rebuilt all over again properly with correct parts. I call them to get my money back and they tell me that the owner does not care and will not do anything to help me. DO NOT EVER GO HERE!! you are better off burning it in the desert and save alot of agrevation by far the worst experience ive ever had with a company in my life. spent almost 4k to get this fixed now. read more
