Got All Auto Parts Reviews

  • Apr 4, 2023

On 9/8/2019, I purchased a re-manufactured 4L60E transmission with a 5 year warranty from Got All Auto Parts. The owner I spoke with for the purchase was Jeffrey "Jeff" Madison and the sales person was Kevin Karwat. I have emails, the invoice and all documents proving this.

The transmission broke on 4/2/2023, still under warranty. On 4/4/2023, I called the phone number for Got All Auto Parts, 989-891-9212, and a woman named Angel answered the phone saying the name of the business was Rebuilt Transmission Exchange (RTE) and explained RTE, "took over Got All's phone number for marketing purposes". I told her I needed to make a warranty claim and she explained Got All Auto Parts is out of business and filed bankruptcy so no one could honor my warranty. However, Angel explained RTE would give me a discount on a replacement transmission and emailed me an invoice on 4/4/2023 for $1020. On the invoice from RTE, I noticed Jeff Madison, the owner of Got All Auto Parts, was the person listed to make payment to for the transmission now coming from RTE. I was to send payment to CASH APP $madisonj1563 or VENMO @Jeffrey-Madsion-14.

Jeff's LinkedIn profile is still showing him as the owner of Got All Auto Parts: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeff-madison-900759177 and here is an article discussing Jeff Madison and salesman Kevin Karwat https://ideamensch.com/kevin-karwat/

Got All Auto Parts still maintains a website: https://gotallautoparts.com/

Jeffrey Madison is listed as the owner of REBUILT TRANSMISSION EXCHANGE, LLC, Michigan Corporate ID 802729459.

Got All Auto Parts filed for bankruptcy on 08/18/2021 and Rebuilt Transmission Exchange filed for organization on 09/02/2021. Got All Auto Parts was EIN 46-0610722. Info on the bankruptcy here: https://www.inforuptcy.com/browse-filings/michigan-eastern-bankruptcy-court/1:21-bk-20927/bankruptcy-case-got-all-auto-parts-inc

This is clearly a scam to avoid warranties.

I do not even know where to start. This is the absolute lowest of the low type company. Kevin Karwat and Daniel are the two people I dealt with over the phone and all I can say is they are running a scam operation. The transmission I bought on their website was through the company they set up called ATranssmitions.

This website and company went out of business then they set up another company name to go bankrupts again, and so on. The Transmission they sent me shows up without Torq Converter and it looked fine. I paid a mechanic to install it and drove it for 2 months until it stopped shifting. The warranty stated 5 years but obviously, they don't care about honoring anything. I have been calling countless times and being lied to over and over again.

This is been going on for over 6 months but all I get is fake promises and they also stated: We don't have to do anything about it because we filed for bankruptcy. I have spent $1000 on transmission and $300 on the installation cost by my mechanic. Think twice if you want to do business with these people.

Purchased a transmission for 2006 Dodge Dakota Slt 4.7. They use several different names, Looked them up on the Michigan Secretary website, Owner Jeff Madison, owns Got All Auto Parts, which is listed as a junkyard. He also is listed as owning J MAD Properties LLC, Madison Restoration Incorporated, Transmission Parts Distribution, Inc, Transmission Whole Sales Distributors Inc. A Transmissions.

Also, running a Business, webpage named Powertrainpro.com, with supposedly someone named Pat Green location of Jacksonville, FL. There is a legal transmission shop with the name Powertrainpros LLC located in Nebraska. Did a reverse lookup of the IP Address for Pat Green and it came back to Ann Arbor Michigan.

Pat Green gave me an estimate of $1300.00 that includes shipping to a Business. that estimated didn't mention anything about labor costs etc. This transmission started leaking fluid from the valve body pan within several days, They cleaned and painted the transmission to make it look as if it's new/rebuilt like they advertised.

The pan was painted black and the rust is coming through. We have had nothing but problems with the transmission and torque converter. Like all the other complaints, they never call you back about warranty issues.

Instead, the customer service number never answers and the VM is full. Found another phone number and left messages, never return my calls. I have filed complaints and been trying for 2-years to get my money back without any success. So I am doing what another consumer did, I am filing an IC3 complaint with the FBI. I am also mailing 50-pages of documents along with a complaint form to the U.S. Dept Of Justice, Also, I am submitting these documents and complaints to several class-action Attorneys who also practice (RICO) Claims. I suggest other consumers with complaints do the same. 145-complaints on BBB, Also, Michigan Attorney General has over 145-complaints as well.

In July 2013 I orderedand paid for a transmission from 'Got all auto parts. In February 2014 I had not received my and I cancealed my order and ask for a refund of $799. For eight (8) weeks all the owner, Jeff, has been telling me is "I'm sending your refund out this Friday". As of April 28, 2014 that business will not answer my phone calls. Beware of doing business with Got All Auto Parts from Bay City, Wi.

Long story but it must be told. 8/12/2014

Ordered a reman transmission back in mid March. Paid $649 plus $100 freight and $300 to a transmission shop for professional installation and fluid. The transmission was bad, pump would not function properly, would not pull vehicle. The shop was granted permission by Jeff at Got All Auto Parts to pull the pan and inspect the filter. His findings was the transmission had not been rebuilt, no critical parts were new, still had the original twenty year old wiring harness , all the old switches and solenoids.

Contacted, A Transmission / Got All Auto, both companies are the same company, for information on how to return. The promised shipment the next day of replacement transmission. It took over a month for them to ship replacement. I called them many times and every time the told me it was shipping tomorrow, they lied. The replacement transmission did work fine but I had to put out another $300 for the transmission shop to remove and install the second one. I was also billed $127.00 for freight of the second transmission but Tammy assured me they would pay the bill but did not. Fed X turned it over to collection and was threatening to take me to court for the unpaid bill, probably taking 100 points off my credit score. Have been calling Jeff and Tammy since April trying to get a reimbursement for the second installation and now 8/12/2014 they are claiming it must have been the installer that caused the problem and refuse to refund anything (oldest scam in the books for auto parts). Bottom line, Transmission was a junk yard DOA, I paid freight after threatening letters from Fed X, and I paid for installation of the transmission twice. Never seen a more dishonest company in my life and I’m 65 years old. [email protected]

After purchasing a "rebuilt" transmission it didn't even work one day and the $1,000 spent on it was wasted I spoke with Kevin Karwat and he said that he would make things right, this was in April, 2019. Kevin called in June and August 2019 stating that he wanted copies of all invoices for all problems that he would gladly reimburse me for all expenses. I emailed the invoices to him on September 1, 2019. After that all calls to him were not accepted and there was no response to my emails. I have spoken with other "department managers" and they were unable to help. The costs incurred due to the first transmission being defective were $1000.00 for the transmission, $750.00 for installation and $1,302.17 for resetting of the computer and installation of the second transmission. Since I am a senior citizen and live on an exremely fixed budget, this has been a traumatic experience. It is my hope that you will be able to help in recovering the monies due me. Thank you so much for your consideration. I can forward the email with ivoices to Kevin Karwat if you could provide an email address.

I purchased a rebuilt transmission (4l60e) for 550.00 dollars with a two year warranty. Transmission is still under warrenty. When i got the transmission i had some issues with the wiring in the value body area inside the transmission pan. They replaced that and it seemed to of solved problem. Now iam having a big issue with the transmission kicking out of overdrive and into drive, Which then the speed odometer decresses in speed till u let off the gas pedal then it climbs back to its normal speed and kicks back into overdrive, till u hold it steady again then it repeats the same thing over and over again. It starts doing this right after the transmission warms up. It took me 6 weeks for the frist issue to get resloved. I have tried calling them several times to get this issue resolved and they will not return my calls, I have also left several messages with no response. The truck sits in my driveway and has cost me a great deal of trouble getting around. I'am scared to drive it , I dont want anything to happen that might cause me or other drivers issues on the road. I'am on disabilty and feel i have been taken adavantage of. I dont have much money to fix it again , so it just sits here as i am still tring to get this resolved. I'am exausted with this issue can Someone please help me, i feel i have been ripped off. I have my warranty in hand i purchased it on 3/29/2013 invoice #1875 and it expries on 3/29/15. this issue needs to be resolved.

I purchased a transmission from Got All Auto parts A dealership installed this transmission and it had problems from the onset. I called and spoke with Jeff the owner of company in December and he assured me that about 4% of their transmissions fail and he would just send out another one.

Well here we are at the end of January and after 3 calls a week and numerous lies from Jeff I have still not recieved another replacement transmission. I have been without my truck for over 2 months and they could care less. Do Not buy anything from this company they do not provide you with what you thought you were buying and they dont have warranties just lies. I though dealing with a larger company and a 2 year warranty would of been safe. Don't be fooled by their quick response when they want your money. You will not recieve a good working product and you will not get any response if you have a warranty issue. I will be sending complaints to the BBB and to their local chamber of commerce. When your in business and depend on your vehicle for work You cant be left with nothing but lies after you have paid for a product. Pleas do yourself a favor and sterr clear of Got All Auto Parts you will save yoursel alot of money and headaches in the end.

Purchased a rebuilt transmission from Steve with Gotall Auto Parts back in December 2013. Once the transmission was installed in the vehicle and it was start up the transmission was making unusual noises and truck was not operating correctly. Had a local mechanic pull the transmission and inspect it. He opened it up and siad that the transmission was definitely not rebuilt and had used parts in it. Contacted Gotall Auto regarding this and made arrangements to have the transmission shipped back. Shippped it back in January and to this date 4 monts later have yet to receive credit for the transmission. I have made phone calls on a weekly basis and have been told week after week that Jeff would be sending a check on Friday (this is the day they do credits). Well 4 months of Friday's have passed and we still have received no credit. The latest we have been told is he will reimburse through PayPal. He promised a credit two weeks ago. Never saw it so I called back again and he said we would have it by last Saturday the 10th. We did not receive the credit. Jeff is a blatant liar and does not keep his word. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!!

Last week the transmission in my truck started acting up, so i jumped online to try to find a deal. I checked several companies for pricing, and found rebuilt tansmission supply to be the cheapest for a rebuilt transmission with all the gm updates. I contacted kevin karwat @ 810 247 8639 on a monday and asked for the pricing again, and information on the transmission. It all sounded legit, and he stated it could be here by thursday or friday. I told him i would call back, and did some checking on the internet with the bbb and did a google search on the company, in which i could not find anything bad about "rebuilt transmission supply". So i called kevin back and placed the order, and i put it on my credit card just in case it turned out to be a scam. Kevin told me he would contact me wednesday, and that they had the transmission in stock.

Wednesday came, and after i hadnt heard from kevin by 4pm, i called him to get the scoop, it was at that time i was told that the transmission was still being rebuilt, despite him saying on monday that they had them in stock. Kevin then told me to call back the next day and he would know more accurate information. After i hung up the phone i logged on to my credit card statement to check and see if they had charged it, and sure enough they had billed me for $575 to a compamy called "got all auto parts".

The next day i called kevin again, and he gave me some excuse about the fed ex guy being there and he'd have to call me back. At this point i was already uneasy about the whole thing. After about 45 minutes went by i didn't hear back from him, so i called again and got his voicemail. I then left a message telling him i was trying to find out what was going on as it was thursday and i had no tracking number, no transmission, and i had been billed for one. He called me back about 2 minutes later, which i could barely hear him and he said to call back in the morning for the tracking number.

I then got online and started searching "got all auto parts" to which i found many reports of "poor quality" parts, and warranty items that were ignored or not honored by kevin and his "staff". I immediately called my credit card company, and cancelled the transaction, and had them change my account number. Luckily i figured it out quick enough and they were able to do so. I then called kevin, which of course he didnt answer, and i left him a message and told him to cancel my order, and that i had already called my credit card company and told them not to authorize any charges further on my account, and that i had read many interesting complaints about their company and it's business practices. I of course never heard from kevin after that.

Had i not been so cautious with my research i could have ended up with a junk transmission from "got all auto parts" or "rebuilt transmission supply" or whatever other name they want to go by, and out about $700. Please do your research and see who youre dealing with before you try to buy. Bbb, and scamion saved me alot of headaches and money!

I purchased a rebuilt transmission with a warratny the transmission failed after 50 miles and now they will not send me a new one. Everytime I call they keep telling me they sent out a new one but i never receive it. Now when I call they will not let me speak to the owner, or anyone that can help me.

RUN FAST

Update continued:

As soon as this lets me, I will upload the conversations had between the staff and I.

Where do I even start with this place. I was right in the fact that they can't deliver on promises. Between Kevin who said he was the man to get things done, Kelley who said she could, then Henry said he would. I have now spent over 4 months in this process and tried to keep thing civil. I was given false information and tracking numbers belonging to other people. I have provided the messages between myself and the staff at a-transmissions and GotAllAuto, BUYER MUST BEWARE. This company is full of people who are committed to feeding you lies! I know have to start all over in the process because these guys can’t stand behind their promises.

Update: Finally got my refund after days of waiting. Now just to see if they fulfill the rest of the promise by sending me a transmission I can actually use.

More updates: Still waiting on the return of my funds. Was told it would be completed 2 days ago and still has not happened. They say they want to make things right, but I am feeling as though this was just another promise they can't fulfill so they keep procrastinating and creating excuses. Please continue to follow up daily with this review until this issue is resolved.

Update yet again: I will be sure to keep this post live and well. After sending photos of the transmission I was sent with a large crack in the bell housing and missing mounting brackets, I was told I would be getting my money back due to the garbage I was sent. It has now been over 48 hours and NO REFUND. At this point in time, i have been continuously mislead and lied to more than any person should be when dealing with a professional! Please see the photo's of the transmission I was sent and told to h ave installed!

UPDATE: Finally after 2 MONTHS of waiting, my transmission arrived. I get it all unwrapped just to find out ITS CRACKED! I feel robbed and now wish I would have NEVER committed to waiting! The team here was great at over promising and excellent at under delivering.

I ordered my transmission more than 5 weeks ago. I have been promised so many times that it will ship "tomorrow" that I am pretty sure i'm just going to be out a few thousand dollars! Extending car rentals based on promises this company cannot keep!

Update: Was promised daily contact now that we are going on the 2 month mark. Kevin keeps promising that it will ship, but he fails to deliver time and time again! I have now spent more money on car rentals and this transmission than it would have been to buy new. At this point there is no turning back. BUYER BEWARE

In the same boat

I was look to get my transmission rebuilt because it was sliping a little bit in over drive. I saw a add on CraIgslist Transmission services 575.00. Said to myself what a deal. QUALITY REMANUFACTRURED TRANSMISSIONS. All remanufactured transimisions include all new shift solenoids all factory updates, New saeal and gaskets Kevlar Bands high Energy Clutches and new Hardened sun shell. So i called them. The man said that they got 649.00 for one like mind. f150 1996 302 ENGINE 2 WHEEL DRIVE. I gave him my charge card numbers and he said they would have one to me in two to three days. They delivered it in 3 days. That week end i took it to Sparta to put it on the hoist and pulled tranny. Got it out and compared it to the one they brought me. They brought me the wrong one. My wife emailed pictures to show they were completely different. Monday I called them back and Amber said they would have to come get mind and rebuilt it.

They showed up in four days latter.and picked up both transmisions. She said i would have it back friday AM No tranny. So icalled amber said it would be their saturday AM no tranny so i called about noon she said i would have it in the afternoon. I wasnt here it they brought it about 5 pm. When I got home I it had oil soak up all over it and down the fill tube hole. And the troque converter looked way to small. So compared my fly wheel to it and it was the wrong ong one. No way would it blt up.

So monday i called again and taked to amber and she put threw to the transmaission man. Told them about the torque converter. Told him I had 4r70w trasmission and 14 bolt pan 1996 f150 two wheel drive with the 302. Told him about the oil soak up down the fill tube in the trans. He said drop the pan and clean it out which i did. He put me back to Amber and i told her about the oil saok all over the trans and down the fill tube hole and she laughed. I told her thats not fuunny. She said your torque converter will be delivered this after noon. I said okay. Later that after noon about 5 a young gal showed up bought it in the garge and dropped it on the floor and said happy now and left. About a week later I took it to sparta and my son and law and i put it in. Put in about 13 quarts of mecon 5 made sure it was full back it out of the garage checked it all over full no leakes every looked good. Pulled out of the drive way it tryed to shift in to second and it was slipping whet into thrid same thing slipping and over drive slipping. Babied it home about 6 miles. Called Amber again and told her what was it was doing.

First thing out of her mouth was do you have a extenal cooler. I said no truck never has had one and its has 166.000 miles on it. She when off screaming at me that it was my fault and that i burned it up on the rack in 10 minutes. I tiold her i dont even want to hear that crap. and the pickup has a new heavy duty raditrator in it. So she put me back to the transmission man again. Told him what it was doing he asked how much fluid I put in it and i told him about 13 quarts its full. He asked if i flushed the lines and i said yes. He said what did you use carb cleaner i said no trans line flush. Told him i have put in many transmission in my life and been working on cars for about 50 years. So he put me back to Amber she said they would get one rebuilt and send it out to me by monday and she would call me back that day and let me know what time i was going to get. She never called me back so the next day i called and she wasnt their. A christen nswered the phone and she said she tryed calling me back. I said no she didnt we sat here all day waiting for the call and we have caller ID she never called.

The next day called again she wasnt their. The next day i called again she was on the other line a man said she will call back. I did this 4 times every 15 minutes and she wont answer the phone or call me back. My wife sent her email and no response i call again and told a man to tell her i wanted my money back or another transmission. Or we will have to take them to court. No Call. No emails never heard from her again. Why should she they got my money. so much for a two year unlimited mileage warranty. So i cant just set here and wait for ever so i pulled transmission out and took it to a man that is cerifeted in transmissions and has his own shop and has been in business for 25 years. He took it apart and the transmission stiill had all the old parts in it clutch packs and band and servos and switches. i Have a whole box of crap that he replaced and a recipet of every thing he done .
