Complaint Review: American Equipment Leasing And Finance

I leased a commercial truck from this company and had complaints about its motor from the day i drove it off the colorado lot. I was assured by the lot manager, the mechanic, and the vice president of the company that the truck had been gone through throughly, and was in sound condition. This lease comes with a limited "major engine componet warranty".

90 days after i signed the papers i had to spend close to 5000 dollars to replace the turbo, with no assistance from the leasing company. 3 days after i replaced the turbo the engine had a major failure, it dropped a valve. Again i notified the leasing company and their response was they dont have to do anything. They have howeve offered to lease me another truck for another 2500 dollars as a down payment.

If you are a truck driver looking for a company to lease a truck from to stay away from hauling company lease purchase programs AMERICAN EQUIPMENT is not the company to use they do not stand behind their warranty or the equipment they assure potiential customers are sound, and road worthy.
