I own a 2009 Honda Civic hybrid. I was in need of a replacement transmission due to the fact that mine was going bad with 177,000 miles. I was trying to avoid a rebuilt situation and I could not afford to buy a brand new one. I found JDM on ebay and decided to call them directly. I purchased a transmission from them that I was told came from a car in Japan that was never in an accident and had between 65,000 and 75,000 miles on it. Fast-forward to the transmission being shipped to my mechanic. Luckily, the transmission was the correct one (after all, I purchased online, never laid eyes on it and trusted this business to send it to me after sending them a PayPal for $1,000). What was extremely unpleasant, unexpected, and extremely expensive Was to find that the transmission they sent me was in worse shape than the one I had in my car originally. JDM does not standby what they sell. They’re just looking to make a quick buck by telling you, they have no idea if the part works or not but at the same time saying how clean the cars are that they are coming from. So, I am now out $3,000 for a bad transmission and the labor it took to put it on. I can’t afford to take it out and shake JDM down for a refund, so now I’m out my car along with being 3k poorer. Do not buy from them!

We bought an engine from JDM Engine Depot in NJ. When I was inspecting the Timing Belt before installing it in the vehicle I discovered the engine was partly seized up. I removed the spark plugs and found water in the cylinders. I drained the oil and found water in the oil. Lots of water. I contacted JDM and they requested photos which I sent. Subsequent phone calls resulted in them telling me that my claim was denied and all correspondence had to be done by email. After that the would not respond to emails or phone calls. I disassembled the motor and found that the heads, pistons and cylinders were badly damaged. I made a video of the damage and they have seen it. We ended up stopping payment on the credit card charge. Upon researching the business I found they have an F rating at the better business bureaus and on 1.1 rating on Yelp. I wish I had seen that sooner. The business claims on their website that they inspect their products but if they did they would have seen the problem with this motor. Many people have had almost the same issue with this company according to other reviews. They will sell you a bad product and then not do anything about it. Buyer beware.
