Midwest Auto Recyling false information motors high mileage Cudahy Wisconsin
I would like to report this site for ripping people off by selling motors that doesnt even exist. I recently bought a motor paying over a thousand dollars for a motor that was supposed to have 39,000 miles on it.
Midwet auto never had the motor and purchased it from Als Auto in Trevose,PA. Ned from Als auto confirmed the motor actually had 79,000 miles on it then when confronting midwest about this then Ned seems to have lost paperwork on my purchase.
Midwest has made an attempt to retrieve the high mileage motor but will not send the money to me 1st and seeing how they charge a restocking fee i find it only fair that i get my full ammount back for a motor that was not what i ordered.
In a conversation with the man at midwest he said he wanted the engine back cause he already had it sold to another unsuspecting individual that thinks they are getting a good deal on a low mileage motor.How many businesses sell stuff that isnt even theres to begin with?
I do hope that this site will be able to help keep people from getting ripped off seeing as im too late and lost over a thousand dollars now when i could of purchased the same motor with the miles that are on it for 300 dollars.

First, please excuse my writing, English is my second language. I also worked for (Midwest) in California. The management seemed nice. I came from the computer field. At the time, I lost my job and was fighting an ugly battle with my former employer. A very nice woman from Midwest called me and ask if I'd like to come in for an interview for a job to be my own boss. I could not wait to go to the interview.
Well, we all know how those things go, and now I'm not sure if I should be ashamed or grateful for learning my lesson. I paid the money, I knew nothing about insurance except what I was told by the managers. To look back, I was braking so many rules and misrepresenting the product the way I was taught. The first year I did everything my manager told me to do. After awhile I was making good money. Nothing like working in the computer field. But my manager told me, it takes time, and she believes in me and that I could do it. I was making about $3500 a month and I just knew I was going to make so much more as time went on.
Well, I bought a very small house at the end of the housing boom. Then, after I was living the American dream. The people started to cancel their policies. In one week 3 people screamed at me saying that the insurance did not work! I was very depressed and did not sell for 3 weeks. My manager came to my house and again told me, how she believed in me, and that I was the only sale person in my ethnic group and that I was bound to be a top producer and that these people must have lied on the application, as to not have their claims paid. Well I did start selling again and this time I made it to number 24 in the company by the end of the year. I went on a very nice trip with the company.
Then in January, the policies I sold to my own community started to cancel. I called everyone to get them to reinstate, I was told, the insurance does not work, over and over. I could not sleep, I got ulcers and felt very guilty. Not everyone I sold too could have lied on the application. So I left.
I got a letter stating that I owed $30,000 dollars. I almost fainted. After pulling myself back together I applied for a job as a (&&&) P & C rep. I have been there for 3 years now.
I went to school for P & C, paid for in total by (&&&), I was given a base salary and bonuses, 401k with co. matching, full health and life ins. I have never paid for anything, all our leads come from the company and walk in business is how I make my money. Besides the fact that this is a very good product. I have it, and my mother has it.
I want to say I'm sorry for selling this insurance to everyone I sold too, please forgive me.
Thank you for reading, I hope you find your peace.
