Sanchez Auto Parts Albert Sanchez Scam, Stole my money, gave me a knowingly bad engine. Grand Prairie Texas
Report Attachments
Sanchez Auto Parts is running a scam and ripping people off. He is using craigslist to help him do it, but it is not craigslists fault by any means. We found an engine there that he was advertising that had 35k miles on it for a Mazda3. We had to put a deposit down for them to remove the engine. Once the engine was removed, or said it was removed, we went down to take a look at it. As my brother was finishing the deal, I the certified mechanic, was looking at the engine. The owner would not let me do any checks on the engine and said if I removed anything he would not cover the warranty.
So after just briefly looking at the engine and saw the engine oil pan was filled with dirt and the timing cover only had 4 bolts in it with red rtv coming out of it, I told him we did not want to take the engine. He said the engine only had 35K miles on it and that was his first lie. He said that he guaranties the engine to be good, that was his second lie and then the fly wheel would only turn a 1/4 of a turn. There was the third lie. This engine was probably returned for the 35k mile engine we were looking for. So after we did not like the motor we requested our money back and he said nope no refunds, even though we never left the premises. He took the money I put down 2 weeks ago and the money we had gave him 5 min before.
So I am writing this now to warn anyone that needs a part not to use Sanchez Auto Parts. It is just a matter of time that this company will be shut down for good and that owner will get what is coming for him. The Police have told me that there has been 45 reports in just the last few months for this one business alone. He would not even show up and was having his son do his dirty work and would yell at me over the phone but would not show up until after the police had arrived. This guy is ripping good people off and giving junk yards a bad name. I have been going to junk yards since I was a boy and this is the first time I have ever had a problem.
Doing business the right way will always make you more money. If there is anything I can do to keep people from giving their money away to this guy I will.

Okay a costumer call us about a mazda 3 engine 2.3 i told her we had one it was still in the car if you wanted you can come out and look at it and put a deposit on it so we. Can pull it out so she sent her grandfather out to look at it and put a deposit they where more then welcome to see it at any time so we pull it out called them to pick the engine up so after two week's they come out to get the engine they look at it they paid the balance so we load it on there truck all good untill the mechanic said that he was going to To take the engine apart and i told him if you do that you will void your warranty all you have to do is changed oil filter. AnD put 5 quarts of oil and install it and you will 90 days warranty so because of that i am a crook i stole his money am. Bad person god knows the truth and i do believe.

The custmor sent his uncle to put a disposit on the engine before any money was put down we explain to him we donot refunds at all so he put 500 down we pull the engine out we call them to come get the engine they said they will be there saturday well no show we call again this time they said they will be there again on saturday ok so they came his brother so call mechanic ask if he can open the engine i simply said you can but you will lose your warranty so he got mad.
So know the engine has dirt on the side of the oilpan and it look like who ever had the engine had something done to it before they wreck the car i think it was the timming belt was replace and thats a good thing so know they wanted there money back remmber in the begging we told them we donot offer any refunds exchang or store credit ther wher noting wrong with the motor it been way over a month know no calls from them they just wanted to make a seen and as of being close down give me 1 millon i be happy to close its doors some people and grand prairie police are jokers.
