Southwest Engines

Letter from BBB
SW Engine telling them I was charged a 25% restocking fee
I never received the engine how in the world could I be charged a restocking fee.
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY
Run and keep running
I’m out $ 241.25 for now.
That’s a little hard when you are 78 years old and retired
I’m still working with my CC on this.
The BBB is toothless when it comes to helping you.
I think it favors the company’s not the consumer

All reviews are bogus and lies set up by SW Engines to make them look legit. I was scammed and lied to by Dale Jones, John, AJ and James. $ 670.00 for a defective transmission and they fail to make good on my refund. BUYER BEWARE!!!
I would give zero stars!!!

I recently placed an order for a 2002 BMW 325i for a competitive price. I haven’t received the engine yet so I can’t review it’s performance at this time. When I called I spoke with Dale who answered any question I had and made sure I ordered the correct engine for my car. I will have a follow up when the engine is in my vehicle and have driven it few miles

I bought a 2003 BMW engine with 63K on it for a lot cheaper than other places selling the same engine with more miles on it. I fitted it in with all of the changes required to keep the warranty active and it started first time and purred like a kitten.
After putting in the order I did a search on SW Engines and all I saw were bad reviews. I started to panic and asked them to provide me with the VIN number which they did. I check out the engine and the previous car it was in and everything seemed ok. However, because of the reviews I kept hassling them for more information and I even took out a fraud alert on my credit card just in case the engine turned out to be a dud. When it arrived, it had been painted but thats only cause they wanted it to look clean but the performance was spot on. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it and its still running very well (6 months later).

same as previous reviewers, i asked for a used engine and they sent a piece of crap with a dirty paint job. when i complained they said the engine just looks painted because they wash them really well. my bank was useless and refused to help.
do not buy anything from these people. btw, the owners name is fred talyansky, and i also created a facebook page called «I will not do business with
i will spend all my free time telling everyone i know how much of a thief and criminal Fred is

The previous review is exactly what happened to us. My husband ordered a supposedly rebuilt engine for our Toyota along with the 3 year warranty. Our mechanic just told us that it is an old engine that has leaks. If you call they just hang up on you. We found them as a sponsor on
and did not do our usual research. As previously stated, the Internet is saturated with complaints about this company. They are truly scam artists. I wish you could give negative stars or better yet file criminal charges. Do not make the same mistake we did!

do not ever buy a motor from this company… ever…
they sent me a bad engine that previous over heated, when my machnic told me the engine was no good and i tried to call them to let them know, they told me maybe my machinic don’t know what they are doing.
i bought an additional warranty from them, which is useless because they didn’t warrenty the motor even before it was ever put into my vehicle.
they would not pick up the motor so my machanic had to find the freight company that sent it to return it back.
now im trying to get back my money and they just hang up in my face or send me to voice mail.
i wished i would have done more research on this company because i now found tons of complaints. dont be fooled by their professional looking website, these people are a scam.
what is worse it was bad enough i need a car to get me to work and needing an engine was costly enough, but now im out $ 2090 and now i don’t have money to fix my car.
beware…
