Fraud
We placed our order with Engineandtransmissionworld.com on Sep 29th, but due to having the engine shipped to a different state than the billing address, Dale said they couldn’t process it without me faxing my VISA and drivers license to them. After I did, they processed the $1, 290.00 on Oct 4th. Oct 7th I called them to get a shipping number and they said they couldn’t find my engine and the shipper had lost it. But the email I have with the tracking number on it (received Oct 25th) says the shipper (R&L Carriers) didn’t even pick up the engine till Oct 22nd! I called them to verify this and they told me they picked it up from a Mathew Stuart in IL. 62254. When it arrived on Oct 27th, a month after I placed my order, it was laying on its side with a broken pallet. The shipping tag didn’t have my invoice # on it and said it was a 93 GMC.
It says on their site they provide a free CARfax with each purchase but they won’t let us see the entire thing. When we looked up the engine serial #T0627AAC, the manual from GMC tells us the “T” means it’s a ’96 and is NOT compatible with ours. They sent us a '96, we ordered a '99. The '99 is metric with small bolt holes. The '96 is SAE with large bolt holes. We shouldn't have to buy all new hardware to make this fit what we already have. IF we bought new SAE hardware, the bolt holes are still too big and would have too much play. IF it was a close enough fit, the ‘99 Starter doesn't match the ’96 flywheel. So there's a new starter and flywheel we have to buy.
The engine they advertised had about 33, XXX miles, but interestingly enough, the last time that VIN number (1GNDT13W8X2154007) was sold was Oct 7th (The same day I asked them for a shipping number). They can’t advertise an exact mileage if they don’t have possession of it yet (false advertising).
When we attempt to tell them this they interrupt us and say our mechanic (who is a certified mechanic and my father-in-law) doesn't know what he's doing and is trying to rip us off. We have asked them for a full refund since this is NOT what we ordered, but they refuse saying “the shipping to you is non-refundable, you pay the return shipping and there’s a 25% restocking fee”. When we try to talk to them they yell at us and hang up. Dale Jones and Allen have stated they will no longer be doing business with us because we are seeking legal help, they will charge us the 25% restocking fee and we “had better return the engine”.

Fraud
on engineandtransmissionworld.com out of wisconsin
My name is Brandon Ogorzolka my phone number is 402-631-9293 my email is ogor2007@hotmail please call me or email me...
engine and transmission world is FRAUD and here is my story..
I ordered a 2002 GMC Duramax engine and transmission from www.engineandtransmissionworld engine spost to have 45, 000 miles and transmission spost to have 39, 000 miles after waiting 19 days I received a transmission from a company called LKQ out of california but the pallet had been broke and the transmission fell off the pallet on to its top and broke 4 sensors and bent 2 brackets. First thought was well I have the parts off my other transmission to put on this so no big deal!! Well I decided to refuse the order and get one with all the parts in good shape!! So the shipping company asked if he could leave the transmission at my location due to it was his first delievery, I said ya of course not big deal and he said also would you mind sitting it on a new pallet and tieing it down I said ya no big deal.. So I did so and in the middle of doing this I decided to pull the tourqe converter off and just look at the condition of the oil and I found brown burnt oil looked like it had 300, 000 miles on it and it was spost to have only 39, 000 miles so that worried me and got me to thinking so I got it all tied down and loaded up later that day when he came back by... Then decided to call up engineandtransmissionworld and tell them that I was going to need another transmission due to this one had been damaged and the guy laughed at me and said thats between you and the shipping company and I thought ya your right but then said actually its not due to the fact that I rejected it that makes it your problem! He said we will send you another transmission right away and we hung up.. I later called back and asked why I have not received a carfax on either item??? Engineandtransmissionworld said you will get a carfax with your item!! I said well thats not going to be good enough I want to either cancel my order or you provide a carfax now.. We went back and forth for quite awhile and finally he said the carfax's will be emailed to you and hung up on me!! So I waited around for a carfax and did recieve a carfax on two different VIN numbers.. both duramax pickups with the maching parts that I needed one 2 wheeldrive and one 4 wheel drive. Due to the fact that I ordered a 4wheeldrive transmission and a engine I knew that the engine had to be coming out of the 2 wheel drive pickup.. So I decided to run my own carfax on that same VIN number and I got one and it matched almost perfect other than on the one they sent me it said vehicle purchased by engineandtransmissionworld well guess what on the one I ran it didnt say that and Carfax does not give out names like that anyway!! So off the carfax that I ran had a city where this vehicle had been taken apart. So I started calling salvage yards until I found the one that had that VIN in there system and asked them who they sold that engine to and if they happend to have that serial number off that engine.. The guy looked up in his files and said I do not have the actual serial number because all we go by is VIN but I did sell that engine to a place called low mileage engines in memphis, tn.. So I got there phone number and asked them if they happend to have the serial number off that engine and who they sold it to. The lady started digging a little and said um Sir I have that engine in stock for sale and have never sold it to anyone.. So I presented this proof to engineandtransmissionworld and told them I want my money back in full right now or im calling the cops well the guy there named DALE extension 102 told me basically ha good luck.. I said sounds good see ya then about 5 mins later he calls me being all nice and said your money will be refunded in full you will see it in your account in about 3 days and I said ok sounds good.. Then about 5 mins later I recieve another phone call from that same number and its a guy saying oh and by the way I just wanted you to know it must have been a typo when entering the VIN.. Well if anyone knows anything about VIN numbers its a little hard to typo a 17 Character number and come up with the same kinda pickup with the same mileage the has been wrecked!! I have proof of all this and think that engineandtransmissionworld should be shut down and the guys running the joint should be put in prision for fraud.. I did get my money back but look how much research I had to go through to prove they were commiting a crime!! Do not fall for this company because they are exactly what they tell you to look out for!! Brokers with no inventory Thanks for reading this and I hope this makes the news because this company needs shut down...
