I had an engine installed in a Ford ranger 89 first the price was 1500 then the V6 3.0 wouldn't match with my intake or some bs over all it cost more than 3 grand.
The kicker is I ended up putting the truck in a different shop they asked if I had converted over to an automatic I said no, had an engine installed.
They discovered the wrong spacer was in the engine so the only thing pushing my truck was 4 7/16 bolts where the fly mounts to the converter.
Now I know why she ate flex ppates
They seemed nice and cool at first but I bought a transmission from them and they say that they went throw the transmission pulling pain and seals but my mechanic told me that the transmission was never even looked at that it was just pulled I’m sorry but that’s not right and he says he runs dyno tests on the motor but all he dose is run a compression test Dave you need to learn the difference between what a dyno dose and what a compression test dose untill then I think a 22 year old know more about cars and stuff then you do they’ll never have my busses aging Guarantee
Very unprofessional I went to look at a motor and took my mechanic out there with me and he blew up on him I do admit he did apologize but Very unhappy with the way that business was delt with!
One of my friends brought me with him to look at an engine that David was going to sell him for almost $1600. When we arrived to look at it he made a comment about my friend bringing people with him. When my friend mentioned I was a mechanic he got very upset and when I asked a question about the engine he got angry with me and told me to leave his building in a hostile way. David is probably the most unprofessional man I have ever met in my professional career. I can't believe how he treats customers that came to spend their money with him. Will not return nor will I recommend anyone to ever come here for anything. Wish you the best as a person David, hope you can one day become a better guy.
Haven't purchased anything yet but talk to Dave was very helpful in finding me a transmission we talked about what the truck was doing said it might be a throw out bearing instead of transmission bearing seem like a genuine person Thanx Dave !
I’ll say this, I highly recommend this shop. He was letting me know what was wrong with it and he fixed it! I’ll definitely come back again! Also, it’s a affordable price! Again, I highly recommend to go this shop!
Had to get an engine replaced. Spent over $2,500 to still have issues with the engine and of having to get rid of the vehicle. All the stuff that the warranty information says that they do as far as flushing all the systems and stuff like that it is false you have to double check and recheck that work and if deal wasn't resolved for us it was just easier to say let's cut our losses and move on Via try several times to get the problem corrected but when it comes time to get problems solved it's like you speaking a whole nother language. And I was never given the miles that came on the engine
Crooks.
No idea? By the time I spent $2650 for the engine and $1450 for Gerald's in Barton, Alabama to swap out it still wouldn't run. D & D finally came and took the truck to their shop. Kept it 2 months. Still never ran right. Said and done I had $10,000 in a truck that wouldn't run. After seeing it just sit in my yard I sold it for $1,500. Never again.
I ordered and engine for the first time from D & D not too long ago for a Mazda B3000. I work for PepBoys and we’re constantly selling engines and transmissions. We’ll be ordering from these guys and gals again!
If I could give less than one star for these crooks, I would. We have a mechanic shop and one of our customers bought an engine from this place. It came with paper work showing it had all this testing done on it, but when we dropped the oil pan to replace the gasket (as requested by this place) there were huge chunks of the timing components in the bottom of the oil pan. Called my customer and had him come out to look at the engine and he didn't want to try to repair it and put it in his car in case there was more damage. So this place was called and notified of what was found, and the customer was told that we must have caused the damage. The customer decided to send the engine back, but they wouldn't come and pick it up. They told him he had to get it back to them and were going to charge him a 25% restocking fee. I tried calling for a week and couldn't get anyone to answer the phone so we could bring it back for the customer. (They're about 60 miles from us so we didn't want to just show up and no one be there) Finally got someone to answer the phone and he now claims that the engine is out of warranty and won't take it back. Not only that but was very unprofessional with my customer and myself. He said he advised the customer to put the engine in anyway, but to find a new mechanic. We have been in business since 1980 and have people begging to get their vehicles worked on by us. Not bragging, just fact. You can take a look at our parking lot and see for yourself. If we were such terrible mechanics and didn't know what we were doing, then I don't believe we would have as much business as we do. I believe that D&D engines are the ones that don't know what they're doing or they're crooks like I've seen other people claim in their reviews. It's sad that someone would cheat another person out of their hard earned money and try to make another business look bad just because an item of their's wasn't any good. It could've been a simple fix if they would've just exchanged the bad engine for a good one.
I have dealt with Dave at D&D for several years. The service has been excellent, and I would highly recommend him to anyone. He went above board 1000% to help me with a transmission problem I was recently having. I have found Dave to be honest and a good person to assist with his sales, and honor his warranties.
DO NOT EVER USE
DAVE JONES
D & D ENGINES & TRANSMISSIONS
14044 US-231 A
HAZEL GREEN, AL 35750
HE SOLD ME A USED ENGINE FOR $1,585 WITH A "30-DAY WARRANTY" ON IT.
AND THEN
WHEN THE OIL PAN GOT A CRACK IN IT WITHIN THE TIME FRAME OF THE 30 DAYS (NOT UP TIL SEPT. 4, 2017)
HE CHARGED ME FOR A USED OIL PAN AND THE FREIGHT ON THE OIL PAN = $60 TOTAL
HE DID NOT HONOR THE 30-DAY WARRANTY ON THE ENGINE.
THE COURIER DID NOT BRING ME A WARRANTY ON THE OIL PAN.
HIS COURIER SAID HE "COULD NOT" GIVE ME A RECEIPT FOR THE OIL PAN WHEN HE DELIVERED IT TO MY DOOR.
I SAID I WOULD BRING HIM A PIECE OF PAPER SO HE COULD WRITE ME A RECEIPT.
HE SAID, UH....I CAN'T WRITE THAT WELL (PROBABLY COULD NOT WRITE AT ALL) SO YOU'LL HAVE TO WRITE IT.
I DID, MADE A COPY OF IT, AND ASKED THAT HE GIVE THE COPY TO DAVE JONES.
I HAVE LET DAVE JONES KNOW I AM NEVER DOING BUSINESS WITH HIM AGAIN, WILL TELL EVERYONE I KNOW NOT TO DO BUSINESS WITH HIM, AND I AM REPORTING HIM TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES IMMEDIATELY.
IN THE WORDS OF ONE OF MY FRIENDS: "HE IS SORRY AND LOWDOWN."
PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER BASHING ME FOR THIS OPINION ON MY OWN POST.
THIS IS JUST PLAIN WRONG, CROOKED, AND DISHONEST AND WORD NEEDS TO BE PUT OUT THERE THAT THIS IS - WITHOUT A DOUBT - SO.
Biggest crook I have ever come across!!!! He sells junk motors and then blames your mechanic or anyone else he can so he doesn't have to to fix your problem. Trust me he is a "salesman" assuring u he knows all and will fix any problems but THIS IS A LIE! Don't ever do business with this CROOK!
