First Choice Auto Salvage reviews
12Called about a part listed online, they said they had it. Drive 45 minutes for them to try to sell me the wrong part, completely different than what they said they had. The counter person did send someone to see if there were any cars with the part I needed but there were none. Wasted trip over a simple inventory mistake
They aren't there to be friendly and be welcoming.
I own a mechanic shop and I buy from them if I can't find parts somewhere else.
They dont deliver to shops
Second trip there in six months. Very down to earth and nice staff. Their yard is HUGE with plenty of older (late 90s & early 2000s vehicles) Prices were much more reasonable than anything I found nearby. Not far off 78 so very accesible. Worth the drive if you call ahead and they have item. First time I purchased from them they even sent pictures of requested parts I was looking for so I could look at them before driving an hour to pick them up.
Not sure what other reviewers mean when they say they don't get their own inventory. I watched their worker drive out into the yard, pull piece off the vehicle and hand it to me. Also had a conversation with gentleman behind the counter talking about how the current situation is with used car prices being high and how he's experienced the same while bidding on auction vehicles for the yard.
Wouldn't hesitate to visit again or to recommned to friends.
I'm the COO of my company and we purchased a used transmission for a vehicle when they gave us a bad unit and refused to give credit for the bad part or a replacement.on the invoice says 90 warranty it hadent even been half of that and the owner was very belligerent rude and was intoxicated. Never again and i don't reccomend anyone do business with this place I hope they can sleep better knowing that they rip people off and apparently this isn't the first time this has happened and people are talking.
I ordered a set of gauges for a 1972 MGB from this place as advertised on ebay. I paid $100 for the set as advertised and pictured in the dash of the car. When they arrived, they were all still attached to the dash, a section of which had been cut out or torn out of the car. They back side of the dash and the face of the gauges themselves had been exposed to the weather for some time. Not protected as one might expect from the picture. They were nothing but junk. Not operational, which for salvage parts is understandable, but unrestorable as well. Simply junk, sold as usable salvaged parts. They did agree to accept the stuff back and refund my money after I objected on ebay.
New owners and have only been in business for a few months. The office staff are very knowledgeable and sell only good used parts at a fair price. They changed the name of the yard to First Choice Auto Salvage. They should be your first choice when you are looking for good used parts for your car or light truck
Just called on behalf of my dad asking to see if they had an 81 celica in the yard, the person responded very rude. Asking me what parts I need and would not answer if they just had the vehicle I just wanted general accessories and to look around. The previous owners were much nicer, guess they sold to the place to a nasty old man. Dont bother going here!
If you're need parts for any late model car, they have it and at a reasonable price. They don't play games. You'll get a working part removed with care by their professional staff.
By far my favorite. All of them are so knowledgable and can help with what you need! Even the ladies know more than 90% of the "car guys" I know. Love this place. Forever.
Great group of folks and everyone is willing to help even if you are not an expert on your vehicle. Worth the trip from anywhere in the county or from New Jersey.
Just purchased a MB alternator. Absolutely loved the service and all the staff. They answered all my questions with ease. They are truly great people to do business with I cant see anyone having any difficulties.
