My vehicle suffered major engine damage, now what?

So when an engine “dies,” it does not have to be the end of your vehicle. Smart shoppers, like smart motorists, make better decisions when they know all of the options. When a car or truck needs major engine repair, the first response and reaction of many consumers is to buy a new or used vehicle. Sometimes disposing of your current vehicle might make sense, but often it’s simply not necessary, or even the best decision.
If your vehicle is in relatively good shape it makes sense to update it by rebuilding or replacing the engine, rather than replacing the vehicle. Once you consider the “hidden” costs in a new or used vehicle, the economic benefits become very clear.

What is a Remanufactured – Rebuilt Engine?

A rebuilt engine is one that has been remanufactured to prescribed standards and specifications by highly skilled machinists using state-of-the-art equipment and components. During this process many new components are installed that meet or exceed original equipment performance standards.
Frequently, rebuilt engines are better than the engines originally installed at the factory. They are dependable, reliable and backed by excellent warranty programs.

What are the benefits of keeping my vehicle and replacing my existing engine?

Choosing to re-power your current engine with a remanufactured – rebuilt engine is your most reliable and cost effective choice over the long term.  Rebuilt – remanufactured engines get better gas mileage than a worn engine, and emit fewer pollutants. Engine rebuilding also saves the tremendous amount of energy used in processing discarded car engines and vehicles as well as conserving energy and resources required to manufacture new engines.
