APS - Automotive Parts Solutions in
Rockville (MN)

These guys do not grade parts correctly. Posted an A 000 part that had clear coat failure, a huge dent, and crumbling rubber trim.

Ive worked with Luke Rieckens on many occasions. He is very quick with information and ensures I can get the correct part with the best possible price on all parts that I need. Highly recommend dealing with Luke!

Chris S. was awesome, fast and accurate. Ran into an issue with the part and he was prompt and got the issue resolved right away!

Luke Rieckens is the go-to man for everything here. I’ve bought many thousands of dollars of parts with him, and his communication, attention to detail, and customer service are top notch. It’s what keeps me coming back!

Great place for used auto parts. Ask for Chris if you want great customer service and quality parts.

Been going to them for years pretty much sense they open their doors they sold me a junk motor that never got checked obviously and then proceeded to tell me I needed to make a claim to get a different motor or parts to fix this one that's not the way it works you charge me 2,500 bucks for a motor that's junk and then want me to make a claim think they got too big too fast I'm done with these Jokers never spending another dime there oh and I see that there is no response to any criticism only to kind words that figures

Raxicon enterprises doing business with this salvage yard for the past three years, and the person I deal with is Chris. He is extremely polite and always handles everything very professionally. If he had parts for every vehicle, I would only buy from him. His service is excellent, very fast, and the shipping is always on time. The quality of his parts is also exceptionally clean.

I purchased an automatic transmission online by stock number and by Vin number and paid to ship it to Alaska. When I went to the loading dock to pick it up there was a manual transmission instead of what I had paid for. I contacted them about a refund and was told they would refund my money to PayPal and not worry about returning the wrong part, but they never did refund my account. I contacted them again and was told I would have to ship it back to them for inspection before I would be refunded. They have not send me a bill of lading or anything. The guy on the phone did admit they messed up but there was nothing he could do. Apparently issues like mine are all handled by an automated email system with no names or phone numbers. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS BUSINESS. Read the other reviews(wish I had).

I worked with Chris and he did a great job getting me the parts I needed at a great price!!

Luke was prompt, professional and explained the process very well. I will be reaching out to him the next time I need parts for a vehicle!

I called over to APS looking for a front bumper for my Honda Civic and he was able to let me know every little details in the bumpers he has available, whether it be in great conditions or poorer. Will definitely call over to Luke again over at APS to help me on finding future parts for my vehicle.

Purchased a remanufactured motor from them for $3200, timing chain stretched less than 10 months later and they are unwilling to help at all, stating I didn't purchase an "extended warranty." I don't think it's unreasonable to spend over $3000 dollars on an engine and expect it to last more than 10 months before experiencing any problems, let alone receiving zero help. Shoddy products, even worse customer service.

I find myself buying from here more than any other used parts places, and that includes online stores. They are generally overcautious with their ratings because they've been better than described. The "B" rated wheels i bought for winter didn't have any noticeable blemishes. Other parts have been similar. Great pricing too. Their competitors should take notice.

I had the pleasure of working with Chris and Mike B, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! Chris was professional and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Everything was handled with great attention to detail and clear communication from start to finish. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about delivering a 5-star experience, Chris is your go-to. Highly recommend!

BEWARE buying anything from this place! They sold me a motor that didn’t even make it out of the shop doors and then didn’t stand behind it and said you didn’t purchase our warranty so too bad even though they sent me a junk motor and it never made it a mile! Had a dead cylinder on it! You would think at least they should have inspected the motor or stand behind it for the fact it was junk right away. But no… They sent out another engine for me to spend 17 plus hours of book time and all the fluids again to replace the piece of junk engine I got from them. Not a cheep engine either at $4,000! They also don’t send it out quick. Over 3 weeks of waiting for it and a bunch of excuses…..

I talked to a guy named Grant to help me navigate your site. Super helpful guy. If all your employees are like Grant, I will for sure keep buying parts from APS.

Edit: Upon reading further into the negative reviews, I've realized these people are truly horrible people. It's been over a week and they still have the rusted old trunk lid listed online with "INSURANCE QUALITY A GRADE" on it. Don't trust em. Stay away from these guys. They steal the pictures for their items from other auto parts postings. The item you see in the picture is more than likely not the picture of the actual part you are buying. The item is not correctly graded. They make you pay 24 hours ahead of time first before you can get the part. FILTER THE COMMENTS by lowest rating and you will see some consistency. Bought a part online from their website listed as "Grade A insurance Quality" - turns out the part is rusted out and nowhere near Grade A insurance quality. They blamed it on "The part sat outside for over 100 days" although it was off a 13 year old car which sat outside for 13 years prior to. They didn't offer any solution or discount or anything. I've been told by multiple people to stay away from these guys but I thought they were over-reacting. I've heard some pretty bad stories about their experience with them. Maybe it's not intentional. They could just be extremely lazy or maybe it's just pure stupidity. Either way, don't trust them.

APS auto parts had all the parts that I need. Really rare you would find all parts at one location but this one definitely has it all. Great pricing and very quick parts removal. Chris did an amazing job quoting and getting all paperwork. Highly recommended!!

I've known Luke for a couple years now, and what I have to tell you is this: he's the man. I've never had him unable to help me with a used or reman part. He's friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, and just plain aware of the ins and outs of the industry. Because I'm in the dealership sector, I don't get to use his expertise as often as I'd like, but when I need something oddball, off-brand, or discontinued, he's my first call. Luke, keep doing what you do! Philip Schlueter Fury Jeep Stillwater Parts Manager

Everytime I call i work with Isaac, the customer service and prompt answers are fantastic, haven't had any issues with either getting parts or the parts them selves, great company yo get good quality used parts from

I’m not one to write a review unless a business has truly exceeded expectations, and APS has certainly done so. I was purchasing some parts and unknowingly some turned out to be bad. Luke was able to take care of me and had a replacement shipped out the same day. Huge shoutout to Luke and the rest of his team at this location for their honest services! I’m an out of state customer and was honestly super thrilled with the prices and how quick they are to ship things out. Great people and great prices!

I worked with Luke and dude was awesome. Hard to find 10 year old used rims that are both affordable and in good shape. So many places treated you like they just want you to go away but Luke had excellent customer service. Shipped to WA State no problem. I’d use them again.

Been working with M. RILEY for few years now. He always very responsive and helpful! Big or small, they always have the parts I need at a great price and provides some of the best customer service in the business!

I had an engine go out on a car I’m making payments on. Once I had funds together, I called and ordered the replacement I needed. It was half of the miles than the one getting replaced. They had mine wrapped in plastic, strapped to a forklift ready pallet/manger and forked it into my truck. I was thrilled as my mechanic was pleased at how clean and complete it is. I have over 300 miles on it and am so happy I got mine at APS.

I have been buying parts from APS for years. Ironically, we own a shop down in the cities and I went to elementary school with Riley, one of the reps. He has always been super helpful, easy to work with and quality parts. It is tough to find this in the the used parts industry so I appreciate the quality service. Parts are also delivered quickly and packed very well. Thanks Riley and APS!

They said they had 2 doors that were A00 condition. We drove 180 miles at 10 miles a gallon to pick up doors to find they were dented and damaged and the bottom of the doors were junk. Very disheartening. The yard person picking them dented them when they were bouncing around in yard truck damaging them more. A service credit was give but not enough to cover the cost of repairs to the doors and striping the bottom panels off to replace. It is hard to build trust when working with this type of service business to business. It will take time to build any trust with APS as we go forward. These doors were also a repaint with prior damage. Easy to see. These were $50 doors at most, we paid lots more than that.

Yesterday I had the opportunity to visit the Rockville MN location as I was picking up a hood for my Mini Cooper S project. The condition of the hood I purchased was exactly as indicated on the website (unlike the other yards I have visited). I was impressed with the operation. I have been to dozens of breaker yards over the years of working on cars and this is in the top three as far as being neat and organized. The "will call" parts pick up was in the same spot where the staff was preparing other customers parts to ship out. It was a busy area. The boxes they ship with are new, the packaging procedure to protect the parts was deliberate and careful. This is not a Mom and Pop operation there were dozen or more people working at APS. More cars were arriving on a flatbed as I left the facility. I arrived and left with my part, which they helped load into my SUV, inside of five minutes. I would not hesitate to recommend APS to any builder or DIY'er.
