    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    American Engine Installation (AEI) agreed to install a new engine and original equipment parts in my 2008 Jeep Commander for $5k ended at over $7k and to warranty the engine for a period of three years. Beginning in 2020 and continuing for six months until February 2021 the car was taken back to AEI constantly for overheating, leaks, pressure build up, antifreeze consumption, electrical issues, hoses that burst, oil leaks, check engine lights, etc. The car still to this date runs poorly and has had a continuous check engine light displayed. Each time the car was returned, AEI claimed that there was nothing wrong. I took the car to the Jeep and presented AEI with the issues they found. AEI charged me for repairs claimed to use new original equipment parts charged for new but fraudulently installed used and aftermarket parts. I insisted on an independent inspector and demonstrated the issues that existed then left the car for repairs and AEI removed parts and sabotaged the vehicle.
