    Got a transmission from Jasper with a 3 year warranty. Paid 7,500 for this transmission and labor. After 3 weeks of driving my truck the transmission went out again. Jasper had to replace the transmission again and said they will pay for the 1,800 labor on the vehicle but I had to pay upfront and they would reimburse me after getting the other transmission back from the mechanic which takes about 3-5 weeks. Well it’s going on 12 weeks now and still no reimbursement. When I call they make excuses like the check got lost in the mail and there was an error on the check and had to be reissued and blah, blah, blah! Still no check and I would NEVER recommend this company!

    A few years ago we had a Jasper transmission installed in our 1998 Expedition. It's an extra emergency vehicle so it wasn't used right away. In fact, it was not used until 2/3 the way through the warranty. Then, with less than 10,000 miles on the transmission, IT BROKE. Out of the blue-completely quit. We went back to the shop who installed it and neither they nor Jasper will absorb any of the cost of fixing it because we had passed the 3 year warranty mark. The fact that there is less than 10,000 miles on the transmission didn't even make them blush. An internal snap ring had broken, clearly indicating a manufacture problem, yet it became our problem because of the time frame. We will NEVER install another product from Jasper after this experience.

    I was faced with a very difficult decision. I am in process of opening up an HVAC company and since money was tight, thought I could save a bundle by buying a used Cargo Van. Eventually, I chose a 2004 Ford E250 cargo van. Having only 150k and after doing an inspection and doing carfax report found this would be worth the risk. For the first Week the van ran like a champ. Started right up. Ran smooth, sounded smooth. Absolutely no warning signs to what was come.

    On week 2 made first trip to gas station, on way home van sputtered and began running rough. The only good thing was it happened in front of house. From the time it first misfired until I shut it down was under 1 minute. The next day I had it towed in to find I had a hole in piston and would require a new motor. Having just spent 7k putting a 10k motor in was difficult decision. So the repair shop had called me after a couple days and was told that Jaspers would be the best place to get motor. So motor has been ordered and was told we would have by the 18th. So far 5 star but will update progress every step of the way,,,.

    I purchased a Jasper transmission for my “custom” jeep (as they put it) in I believe August 2019. It last less than 2000 miles. I took the vehicle back to the “authorized dealer” and it was replaced. I was told a gear burned up. That should have been my first clue The second transmission was out in and at the time I asked the shop manager if a trans cooker should be installed and he told me no. Second mistake. That transmission did not last very long either. That was replaced with Jasper transmission #3 in July of 2021 with a trans cooler. It lasted until last month and gave out. I contact the shop that installed the transmission and the same shop manager said he would contact the Jasper sales rep and see what could be done. I will add that I took my jeep to the shop that I had been doing business with for several years.

    The next day my jeep was dropped at my residence with no word on what the problem was and when I called the shop I was told by the shop manager that his father had looked at the transmission and would call me back. I never got a call that day so I called back the next day and the shop manager became annoyed and raised his voice Dayi g his father would call back. Once again no call. After 2 weeks of no answer I contacted Jasper via email and received a call from the sales rep who told me that the transmission was out of warranty and that there was not a problem with the transmission but it was a problem with the valve throttle cable not being adjusted properly.

    I called the sales rep the next day and asked for the declination in writing but he just referred me to their website where the warranty was located. I then asked him to confirm it was the throttle cable that caused the failure and he changed his story stating that it was mere “speculation” on his part based off the failure of the previous two transmissions. At this point I file a report with the BBB on Jasper and their reply denied any blame on their company but blamed the authorized dealer for the improperly adjusted throttle cable and they have refused to make any amends on their transmission. But rest assured I will never buy another product from Jasper. Their attitude towards their customers is that they could care less.

    I purchased an engine block for a 7.4 liter engine in my boat. I paid top dollar for this engine. My boat was now running for about 6 miles out in to Lake Erie. That was when my Jasper engine blew. That was on May 10th. I finally got my warranty engine on July 28th. They lied about not being contacted until July 3rd. This was peculiar because they sent a person in late May to do a check to see if I got the engine hot, so they could void my warranty I'm sure. I warn anyone not to buy anything from this company. Pitiful service to say the least.

    My original Chevy Silverado transmission was replaced 3 times in under $100,000 miles total, with a Jasper Transmission and should've been replaced again. The 1st replacement lasted approx. 36,000 miles. The 2nd replacement had a fluid leak and was replaced without question. The 3rd replacement had approximately 40,000 miles on it and had a bad throw out clutch to the torque converter and was replaced...again. The 4th and latest Jasper Transmission developed a whine, hence a bad torque converter, with only 9,000 miles on it. Jasper refused to replace this one, because it went above and beyond the warranty. I make sure I tell all my customers and mechanic friends to NEVER get a Jasper Transmission!! I'm not a mechanical expert, but I own a business and know cheap parts when used. I would've selected 0 stars given the opportunity.

    We put in a Jasper transmission in our Suburban. Within 5000 miles the torque convertor went bad and they replaced it with another transmission under the warranty. That torque convertor went bad within 3000 miles and they replaced it again. We just recently got the Suburban back from the 3rd transmission being replaced and it has been less than 1000 miles and 3 weeks and the torque convertor is bad again. We will be putting in a fourth transmission within a year. It is ridiculous and we are going to be discussing other options at this point. I would never recommend Jasper to anyone. This is the worst experience we have ever had with any automotive parts.

    Had a brand new rebuilt transmission from Jasper installed on a 2006 Ram 2500. The transmission only lasted 3000 miles. They do replace the transmission but they do not cover any parts and they say how long it will take to take out and put in in the end after spending $7,000 on a new one. It end up costing me another $2,000 to replace one with 3,000 miles on it. The manufacturer themselves could not care less that is their warranty.

They did replace it and the second one has almost 20,000 but I'm having trouble with it now and it's out of warranty.

They only gave me a 12 month warranty, and of course this happened at 14 months. I called them and they refused to stand behind the engine. Never again Jasper.

    Had a Jasper replacement engine in a 2012 Chevrolet Suburban and it failed just outside of the warranty time frame, but not even close to the mileage limit. Jasper did not warranty, but instead offered a discounted replacement engine at a reduced price, but with no warranty. The 2nd Jasper engine failed in under $15k miles. They refused to help on the replacement or with any parts. Terrible product. I highly recommend that you find another solution. We purchased through them because of their reputation, but as I've dug deeper I've found that their product and customer service have taken a sharp nose dive. DO NOT BUY A JASPER ENGINE.

    Got a Rear Differential for a 2002 Explorer installed. After 5 months the differential started making noise while driving. Called Jasper and Tom recommended to do a Drain and Fill of the differential and add friction modifier and drive for week to see if noise goes away. The noise did not, and Jasper agreed to warranty out the differential and sent a new one. They declined labor warranty according to Tom stating they boil tested the fluid and it had water in it??? After asking how they thought water got in it, Tom stated it could have been through a breather tube? If that was the case, then it's their design issue and this differential is a carrier style with no breathers? After another phone call back, they still denied labor coverage stating water in the brand-new fluid!!!

    A month after the differential was warranted it started throwing fluid from the pinion seal and that had to be warrantied also!!!! After decades of using their products which they don't make anything for current vehicles, they don't stand behind their product and their products are made very poorly!!! I will not recommend their products or poor customer service to anyone anymore!!!!

    Jasper does not honor their warranty. I had to have my turbocharger replaced on my diesel truck about a year ago. My regular mechanic was doing a routine check and found the turbine blades were breaking apart. The mechanic is someone that I have trusted for 10 years so called Jasper concerning the warranty. Basically, without even requesting for the turbocharger to be sent to them for future investigation, is blaming the damage on everything except the turbo. According to my mechanic there is no other reason for the turbo charger damage is that Jasper did a very poor rebuild and sold a faulty part. I don't drive this vehicle much so there is maybe 600 miles on this "new" faulty turbocharger.

    I had the engine replaced on my 2010 Ford Ranger with a Jasper Engine - before warranty ran out the engine failed by having poor parts built in the engine. In March 2020 a replacement engine was put in - I had to pay all the labor to get the old engine out and a new engine put in. The truck was not driven due to the Covid Pandemic and I didn't leave the house. Since then I have put on just over 4,000 miles and the engine died 4 days ago and I was stranded. I had the car towed to Hals Auto Repair where the engine was put in.

    Now Jasper is saying I have to pay $2,000 for a new engine and have to pay the labor again to take out the bad engine and to have the new engine put in. With having now 2 bad engines and thousands of dollars spent already on their BAD products!!! Their supply chain parts are simply horrible and CANNOT be trusted. They won't stand behind their products and scam you to get more money. Their parts come from China and are bad!!!! They do not take care of customer problems. I have driven just over 4,000 miles on this new engine and it should not fail.

    Jasmin Engines and Transmissions want $2,000 dollars for them to ship a new engine. They will not replace my engine unless I pay them $2,000 for a new engine then I have to pay labor again to install it. This is criminal what they are doing to hardworking people. I am a widow and need my car to go to work and now I am stuck. Jasper holds no accountable for the bad engines they put into cars. The Car Repair place without a doubt told me the engine was bad that they received that this should NOT have happened.

    In 6/6/2019, I bought a remanufactured motor from Jasper Engines and Transmission to replace the one that had failed. I got the extra insurance on rental car and mechanic labor cost. First motor ran a bit rough and within 20,000 miles was using almost 2 quarts per 5000 mile oil change. Upon testing, I had multiple cylinders that failed cylinder pressure test. Jasper agreed to replace motor. I got a new motor and check engine light started coming on. I assumed it was due to all oil that got into the catalyst since it was a Catalyst error.

    After a few weeks light went out, it did not return for 5 more months. During this time, I noticed that this motor was using oil at around 2 quarts per oil change, but this motor had been smooth. Again, Jasper upon proof of issue decided to replace the motor. The new motor has already kicked on check engine light. I installed a new catalyst with the new motor, but this time it is knock sensor code. It came on and off twice and this second motor idles rough. I am on the 3rd motor in about 42,000 miles. This is exhausting and ridiculous. I don't believe that Jasper can produce a quality motor product that will go in excess of 100,000 miles. My last used motor lasted roughly 220,000 miles and was 1/2 costs with no oil usage. Where is the value and how can a consumer believe in their product.

    I seriously never complain or do negative reviews but this needs to be known. We put a new Jasper engine in our truck in Feb of 2016. It is now Nov of 2019. The engine has 80,000 miles on it. We learned something was wrong with the engine. We took the truck in for some routine maintenance and to have a couple of things fixed. We really trust the place we take our trucks to be worked on. They found about $2,600.00 worth of repairs needed because of the engine alone. We didn't know at the time, but the owner of the repair shop called Jasper to let them know about this faulty engine. Jasper would not budge and stood by their warranty, which was expired in Feb 2019, even though these engines are supposed to go 300,000 miles and this engine only went 80,000.

    I called and was passed to a supervisor. I told them that it seems strange that this engine only went 80,000 miles and could they compensate anything at all? He said no, the engine is almost 4 years old and past the warranty. I told him as a business owner, I wouldn't want my name on such a faulty product. He said there are no guarantees as how far the engine would go. I would have been happy with $500, or a gift card, anything. They offered no apologies, just a "this is how it is" attitude.

    In conclusion, please don't use Jasper engines or transmissions. It seemed like he wanted me to beg for compensation, when in reality he was doing a horrible job at his customer service. I told him I was going to be sure everyone I told everyone to never use Jasper because their engines suck. (Not my finest moment.) He said, "Tahnee, you are giving me no reason to give you anything." I said, "You already said you are not going to do anything for me." He said, "I see no reason to be on the phone with you then." Their customer service is way below par and they think of their customers as a number, nothing else.

I contacted Jasper and they said, "Sorry it's out of warranty." I sent them pictures to prove that the parts were never installed and they won't budge on the warranty because it would set a precedent.

    Recently we purchased a marine engine from jasper. After the engine was completely installed in the boat we attempted to start the engine before launching the boat to make sure all was good. This is on a 30+ foot boat so it needs to be launched by a Travel lift. At the test start the starter would not engage. After a few hours of troubleshooting it was determined one of the holes to mount the starter had been repaired and the starter would not align properly to the flywheel. We had to remove the engine and start over. The engine swap on this boat is a 40 plus hour install. Jasper would only offer 20 hours reimbursement at a reduced rate. Their rep said we should have purchased the additional warranty.

    I would understand this if the boat was in the water and hours on the engine. This boat never launched. Engine was bad off the pallet. Zero run time. Another boat, another bad engine. This one had timing issues. Spent several days troubleshooting. Again in the end it was determined the engine was bad. Another complete swap with little help from Jasper to cover costs. My recommendation? Avoid Jasper engines! Won't stand behind product.

    I replaced my original 5.7L Hemi Engine in my 2006 Chrysler 300C at just over 99K miles. The remanufactured Jasper Engine lasted not even 4 years with barely 50K miles driven. The Jasper Engine purportedly addressed all of the known flaws in the original design, but failed due to a timing chain tensioner that in turn caused a timing chain issue that destroyed the Engine.

    This issue should have been corrected by Jasper and of course the rep said it was out of warranty with nothing they could do. One would expect that the so called "re-engineered" product woul outlast the OEM HEMI, but that turned out to not be the case.

    Five years ago the engine in my 1988 truck failed. The engine had run for 500.000 miles with no major problems. I was told that Jasper made a quality engine replacement. The engine was ordered and installed. In less than 500 miles the replacement engine began to make noises and lost power. I returned the truck to the garage and was told that I needed another engine. The second engine was installed and seemed satisfactory. At 96,000 miles the engine failed with a blown head gasket. This engine should have lasted much longer if it was a quality replacement. It will cost me $1400.00 to repair the engine. I would not recommend Jasper as a replacement for any drivetrain component. Bill from Cumming, Ga.

    On March 19, 2018 the auto repair shop informed us that the engine on our Equinox with 60,300 miles was gone and he recommended that we put in a new engine. The engine would have a 3 year/100,000 mile warranty. We were told if we put in this Jasper engine we would not have to pay for any engine related repairs for the length of the warranty. So we paid $6826.29 and picked up our Equinox on March 27, 2018. In April 2019 that Jasper engine died. Instead of taking that engine out and putting in another engine Jasper engine told the shop they just needed to fix it and it took 3.5 weeks to repair that engine.

    It was at this point that we found out about the fabulous warranty that Jasper really gives you when you get one of their engines but no one tells you about until you try to have work done under their warranty. If you expect a shop to work on that engine you are suppose to buy an additional premium service plan. Under the basic warranty where you think you are completely covered, they only pay the shop $65 per hour labor and there is no shops that only charge $65 per hour. The shop that had our vehicle was unaware of this as were we. Our vehicle ended up going back into the shop 4 times after that piece of junk Jasper engine was put in and the last time it was in the shop told us they would no longer work on that engine but they gave us a list of places that might work on it.

    Two days later the engine light was on and vehicle was running like crap again. We called those other shops and not one of them would work on this Jasper engine under that warranty. We traded that vehicle in while it was still running in a forward motion. So, we got screwed over by Jasper Engine as well as the shop that put it in. I hope that when a shop tells someone they need a new engine and they recommend Jasper, that people research Jasper engines and read the scam they pull on people with the complete junk they are selling as engines and run. Although this is just our story, each shop we called had nothing good to say about the Jasper engines nor the company itself.

    Just prior to my warranty expiring on a Jasper transmission I took it in for some shifting issues. They honored the warranty and replaced the trans for the second time. Within 3 months the trans was shifting horribly again, now it was three months out of warranty and no ownership on their part. They told me if it was even a week out of warranty it would not be covered, I understand it's now out of the original warranty but remember the replaced trans was only three months old with a thousand miles on it I would think a reputable company would want to make this right.

    I have a 2005 Buick Rendezvous. At 178,960 miles the OEM transmission had begun failing. After looking around we opted to put in a Jasper Transmission. 100,000 mile or 3 year warranty is why I chose to give them a try. Transmission was installed by a certified shop. Vehicle operated for three years and a few months, Acquired mileage on Jasper Transmission is 60,000 miles. Transmission. Transmission detonated at a stoplight. Certified shop said the transmission is shot. Transmission oil looks good and does not smell burnt.

    Shop manager and myself contacted Jasper and advised. They said that if it is one day past the three years that the warranty is no longer in force. I asked them if they would consider a rebate of 50 or 25% due to the low miles. They said that I should be happy with the product's service life of three years and 60K miles. Answer was "Nope". Very arrogant customer service and poor performance of their product. Some companies get a little each time and other companies get it all once. Jasper has chosen to be the latter. I am done with Jasper. Never again.

It has been to the mechanic so many time that I lost count. I had to have it towed in over 5 times!! It has had two solenoids, two starters, alternator, the new water pump was leaking, antifreeze has to be added every two or three trips driving about 14 miles each. Gas mileage is 8.9 per gallon. The original mileage was 19 per gallon. The engine is always running cold even if the temperature outside is 100 degrees. I took it to one mechanic who told me that it had too much wrong for him to fix it and that nobody in my area could repair it. Guess that I need to sue Jasper.

Very surprised because one of the selling points from Jasper was that they run/test their engines prior to shipping and this noise would have been very obvious. Jasper concluded that it was in the valve train. Had the engine removed and replaced with another and this one made the same noise, since day one again. Really don’t want to replace again, because of all the wear and tear on components, wiring harnesses, loss of work truck, etc...

    I once installed a Jasper performance transmission in a Ford F450 for a customer and was just about ready to have the customer pick up the truck when Jasper called. They had sent me a non performance transmission and offered to send me the right trans or refund me the difference. I opted to install the right transmission. They paid parts & labor without sweat and had another trans at my door the next day. Another time when I was diagnosing a transmission issue I noticed the trans fluid (this was a Jasper unit) smelled slightly burnt. I contacted Jasper and they had one on the way parts and labor covered. By saying the best rebuilders I don't mean that they are without fault.

    In April of 2013 I a Jasper complete 5.7L engine was installed in my 1999 Suburban. In January of 2016 after 30,000 it developed a rattle. After many discussions with Jasper they replaced the engine with a new one. In October of 2018 the engine has seized, after only 3600 miles, and Jasper will do nothing about it. They are claiming the warranty on the replacement engine reverts back to the original engine so it is no longer under warranty. Hard to believe that they would only warranty the replacement for 3 months when the engine comes with a 3 year, 100,000 mile warranty. I wouldn't recommend Jasper to my worst enemy!! When I called all I got was, "it wouldn't matter if we replaced it with 1 day left on the original motor, the new would only have a 1 day warranty. Only putting on 3600 miles over 2 years could also be the problem. If you don't run them regularly they can develop problems."

    What a joke!! I've got vehicles that I run less than that and have absolutely no issues with. Start them regularly and I've never had an issue.

    Being familiar with the Jasper, IN area and some people who work at the Jasper engine and transmission factory, it was a no-brainer that I'd turn to them when a problem appeared in my daughter's 2006 Chevy Trailblazer 4.2L engine. With the first replacement, the engine was subject to dying at inopportune times, even after they said it would stop! Engine number two, about five weeks after the second oil change, I discovered the engine was about two qts low on oil. Took it to a different Jasper provider in town and explained the situation to them and after the normal initial inspection, was told there was compression loss in three of the cylinders.

    It's been about two and a half weeks since this shop has had the vehicle and still not finished. Was informed new plugs and fluids would be required, even after I explained that I had already paid for them TWICE. Was also informed that if the factory "determines that someone had tampered with the engine", I'd have to pay for the labor, again, for the second time! In the meantime, my daughter is without transportation, this time, like a said, for nearly two and a half weeks, so far. I can only hope this is not the actual Jasper engine and transmission factory in Jasper IN, and somehow the two different auto shops I dealt with were put in contact with an illegal Jasper E&T factory. Their 100.000 mile warranty is worthless if the vehicle is continually in the shop.

I was going to put a Jasper Engine in it... but I ended up selling the truck because my dad offered me a deal I couldn’t refuse on his 2003 Chevy Truck with a 6.0 L beast of an engine.

Jasper pointed out that my warranty expired at 36 months and now the engine is "too old " to cover. I was also told that "41 months of service is an acceptable amount of life for a jasper re manufactured engine". I babied this motor, not allowing rpm's above 2500. Turns out something fell apart in the engine causing the #2 & #5 cylinders to have 25% compression. At this point it's cheaper to buy a new engine for me. Something caused the pistons to contact the valves.

    I contacted Jasper engines knowing that they would not cover this. I asked them if they would buy the core back so they could take the engine apart and find out the problem to help them prevent this from happening in the future. I was told no. If I owned a rebuild company I would want a failed product back so I could have that issue studied. Nevertheless I am not a Jasper engine again. I'm thinking about ATK. Just remember when you purchase an engine, you have several companies to choose from. I do not recommend Jasper if you want an engine to last more than three years.

    The block on the original 5.7L engine on my '93 Suburban cracked at around 225,000 miles; water in the oil = ruined engine. I arranged for a Jasper Engine from my local mechanic. That engine also had a crack in the block that was "repaired" with steel epoxy. It failed after only a hundred miles or so. Jasper completely covered the engine, and sent another engine within a week. I now have about 60,000 miles on that engine and it's running very well, doesn't use oil, doesn't leak, has plenty of compression, and I would trust it to drive across the USA.

    This is a rebuttal to Southern Cranes review and issues with a Jasper Engines unit. I am the shop that had to replace the Jasper unit you installed. The vehicle was towed to us from your customer with the engine running rough and smoking. Diagnosis found that there was a hole melted in one of the pistons. Tear down inspection of the engine found extreme heat evidenced by discolored exhaust piping and discolored turbo inlets from very high temps. Further diagnosis found that the truck had an aftermarket performance programmer installed on it at time of sale from you to your customer. Any search online of the Ford 6.4L diesel engine will show that engine is notorious for cracking or melting pistons when aggressive performance programmers are installed.

    The cause of the damaged Jasper Engine was excessive heat due to the extra horsepower the performance tuner gave the engine combined with the heavy weight of the truck. The failure was caused by an aftermarket performance device, Jasper does not cover damage caused by aftermarket devices. As far as you stating Jasper will not call you back I will state bluntly you are lying sir. I have been in contact with Jasper many times on behalf of your customer and they have contacted and documented many calls to you.

    As far as you saying they will not do anything for the customer again that is untrue. Jasper extended them a 60% discount on a replacement motor even after the original unit was damaged by the aftermarket programmer. Since the issue occurred we have installed a new engine at a discounted price, reprogrammed the engine's computer to bring it back to factory oem horsepower and have been in contact with your customer and have had no issues since. Had you removed the performance programmer in the first place no issues would have occurred.

    I own a 2006 Mazda MPV Mini Van which I purchased new. The trouble started when the MPV hit 110,000 miles, the engine died! I was sitting still in a construction zone and the MPV just quit, would not start back up. So off it goes to the Mazda dealer (Knoxville, TN). This dealership sucks, but it is the closest to where I live :( I have learned to dislike them as much as the junky jasper engine, that they put in my MPV at a cost of $6100.00! First the Mazda dealer told me they were putting in a "New" engine. Well its not new, it's refurbished!!! I had the choice of a "refurbished" for $3800, but I said no, that I would go with the "new" one, at $6100 hoping it would last a few years?

    Well fast forward 2.4 years and 42,000 miles, yep, you got it, a valve cover gasket oil leak (so back to the Mazda dealer that put this "New" refurbished engine in), which I felt sure that Jasper would be covering seeing as I have a 3 year warranty. So Mazda calls Jasper, wallah, yep you guessed it. Jasper will not cover it. So service writer tells me a story about "certain" things are not covered and that Mazda only warranties it for a year, no surprise here.

    Mazda service writer wants to charge me $450 with tax for his workers that put the engine in it to go in and mess up something else. I tell him no way am I having it done there (oh yeah, I didn't mention that 2 days after the "New" refurbished engine was put in my van broke down, back to Mazda on a rollback, and this Mazda dealership wanted me to pay the tow bill! They could not even put the engine in correctly! Heck no, I was not paying for something they screwed up! I'm an old lady for gosh sakes and they acted like I did something to a two day old "New" refurbished engine to make it conk out).

    OK back to the oil leaking from the valve cover gasket, Mazda service writer that I spoke of earlier, (when I told him that no, I was not getting the leaky valve cover gasket done there for $450) very rudely tells his mechanic, "put it back together!" (Not professional) I will get it done right :) Moral of the story... Do not go to the Mazda Dealer that I mentioned. And under no circumstances do not have a jasper engine put in your vehicle!!! Run like the wind. Do not look back! Their warranty is not a warranty at all!

    I purchased a 1976 Ford Bronco in July with under 3000 miles on a Jasper motor. Within 400 miles, the motor failed. I was advised to take 'Pearl' to a Jasper dealer which I did. Over a period of months, the motor was sent back to Indiana to be rebuilt, parts failed during testing there, delivery delays. Jasper refused to pay labor costs indicating that I was somehow to blame. It's my new company truck, I need it on the road, so I paid labor, $1800 and change. All the while thinking I'd have a NEW Jasper motor with another warranty. That's what Jasper is in the business of doing, right? WRONG.

    So I pick up Pearl on a Friday smiling ear to ear!! She's back home, YAY! Two days later on Monday I drive about 1 1/2 hours away to pick up equipment at Woodcraft. As I start back, the motor fails yet again, UNDER 200 MILES. Towing was $307.56 to get her home and back to the shop. After another month of waiting, Jasper responds that I have no warranty at all now and accept no responsibility for their workmanship. But they are in a generous mood so, they offer to rebuild the exact same motor for the THIRD time in its short life but offer no guarantees that I won't end up stranded on the interstate and take a ride in a tow truck again. Wait. What? And I have to pay another $1800 or so on the same labor on the same motor? This MOTOR HAS NOT EVEN CLOCKED 3200 MILES in two rebuilds, second time not even driven for 2 hours? Jasper makes the Made in USA proud once again.

    I'm so outraged that from July to November I've driven my truck a total of 5 times with zero confidence now that Jasper can actually keep a vehicle on the road. I'll not stop filing complaints with Better Business Bureau, Chamber of Commerce in Jasper, Indiana, the FTC and any other watchdog consumer outlet I can find. It's all documented and I will file suit. As with any legal battle, I may lose, who cares at this point? If I'm forced to buy a new motor, not a penny of my money will again go to a Jasper product. They have no pride or confidence in their products either as it turns out. And they are indifferent to the fact that actual people drive and need the vehicles they build motors for and dislike being disabled on the interstate.

    I'm having Pearl towed home this week. It's the holidays and Jasper lost interest in us long ago. I'm sure we wouldn't get any attention until after the first of the year anyway. She's become a part of the family at the local Jasper shop and they don't mind her hanging out there, but I'll cover her in the garage and wait it out.

    Jasper Engine: I purchased a Jasper Engine for one of my customers and the engine was installed and ran for 6 months -- the engine locked up and Jasper says they have a 1 year parts and labor warranty -- they covered neither my customer is faced with installing another engine at his cost. They did nothing -- so now either he will have to take Jasper to court -- the problem is the time and money it takes to do that in the meantime his work vehicle is down and it is a $80,000 dollar vehicle -- that would cause hardship on him. Jasper Engines will not cover anything and it is the engine itself that broke or has a hole in it.

    In July of 2014 I was on my way to Mount Rushmore in my 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee when the cooling fan went out in Sparks, Nevada and ruined the engine. I took the car to Wayne's Automotive (who are super to do business with). They said the engine was shot and recommended a Jasper engine as a replacement. With all the parts and labor the cost was over 9000 dollars. The follow August a very loud racket started under the hood. I called Wayne's and they said no problem bring it in and they would fix it because it had a 100000 mile 36 month on the engine. They replaced the engine for no charge. I drove the car with the second new engine about 5000 and again the engine failed in Las Vegas.

    I had the car shipped to Wayne's because in a conversation with Jasper Engines they said the first replacement engine was not their fault so they were not covering the warranty unless they proved it was their fault. They blamed Wayne's or possible problems with the car for the burnt piston. I ask the repair shop in Las Vegas if anything the installer could have done or I could have done that would cause the problem. Jasper Engines ask the Las Vegas mechanic to run test and I would be reimbursed if it was Jasper's problem. They also said I would have to send them payment for over 1800 dollars until they could verify the problem. I elected to spend 400 dollar to have the car shipped back to Wayne's and they could fight it out.

    Again Wayne's were super to work with but they stated they have had nothing but trouble with Jasper for over a year. I just got a call from Jasper and they said the problem was not theirs but they would cover the new engine but not the labor. Wayne's automotive fixed the car and told me they are done with Jasper because of their recent work quality. I think Wayne's Automotive is getting ripped off for their work and I am getting ripped off for the testing that Jasper required the mechanic in Las Vegas to do.

The mechanic was under the impression it had a great warranty on it, and after checking, discovered it was a 3 year/100,000 mile warranty.

    My '05 Ford F150 FX4 engine died just over 90k miles. The only cost-effective option at the time seemed to be a remanufactured engine from Jasper. Engine and labor/parts were just under 8 grand. The engine lasted 37 months and 24k miles, 1 month past their 36 month warranty/100k. Jasper agreed to send out another engine but not pay for parts/labor which ran just under 2 grand. Jasper also took their sweet time making the shop run through hoops and tests. Get the customer taken care of and run the tests on your own time Jasper. Once engine came in engine still had problems and cam solenoids needed to be replaced.

    The Jasper retailer installed my engine and serviced it regularly during the 3 years. I would be embarrassed if I was Jasper and my product crapped out a month after warranty, and only lasted 24k miles vs. 100k, LOL! Had I known this is how Jasper treats their customers I would not have invested almost ten grand in their crap products/service. Once I got the engine in, I went straight to CarMax, because Jasper would not warranty the replacement. CarMax also said that remanufactured engines actually hurt your vehicle's value because they are unable to determine its actual mileage. If your engine craps out, don't get a Jasper, get a new vehicle! The whole process of getting my truck's engine replaced took 2 and a half months. What a nightmare.

Of course they found nothing wrong and told us sorry there's nothing they can do. We're out $1200.00 dollars in labor not including fluids.

    Last September, I had a Michigan-based Jeep shop replace the engine in my 2005 Jeep Wrangler, with a Jasper engine. I drove the Jeep home to Colorado, and on the way back, the engine developed problems... overheating and no power. I called the installer when I got home, they immediately contacted Jasper, and Jasper helped me make arrangements to take it to a Colorado Jasper installer to have the engine inspected. That outfit, Predator 4 Wheel Drive, turned out to be a disaster. Not fixing anything and charging me $81.00 for the inspection and a new radiator cap. Jasper had me take it to another installer, who confirmed the engine block had a hot spot.

    The one issue with the Jasper warranty is that you have to pay for the re-installation up front and Jasper reimburses you when the old engine is delivered back to their shop. I didn't want to do that, so Jasper compensated me for returning the Jeep to Michigan. I had the new engine installed at no extra cost, and again, Jasper also compensated me for the $81.00 the other installer charged me.

    Any company can have a problem, it's how they run their customer service afterwards that makes the real difference. I'd like to say that Jasper's customer service is second to none. They were eager to help, and cared about the quality of their product. The new engine is in and running fine.

I was 300 miles from home, and the tow bill was over $700! The leak turned out to be a faulty "O" ring on the oil filter adapter where it attached to the engine block. The "O" ring was supplied with the Jasper engine.

    I contacted Jasper to see if they would reimburse me for the tow bill. The answer was "no" because I didn't spend an additional $300 for their "premium" warranty. If a product is of good quality in the first place, there should be no need to pay extra money for a "premium" warranty.

The new engine smoked excessively and I was told that it was the break-in oil burning off, never the less it did not stop, meanwhile the engine light came on and I returned it to Freestate and they stated that it was low on oil.

    After contacting Jasper, they were told that I needed to install a new intake manifold. I don't understand what does an intake manifold have to do with excessive smoke coming from a re-manufactured engine when it was on the 1st engine and it didn't smoke but burned oil. Also, I was told that the new engine was only warrantied for the remainder of the original engine's warranty. I have had to be without a vehicle for the past 3 weeks and I'm very frustrated at the way that Jasper is handling this engine problem.

    I do understand that they are trying to protect their interest but at the same time I'm being inconvenienced. Also, they want me to spend an additional $700.00 plus to buy additional parts that I don't think are necessary for the engine. I just spent over $300.00 on parts that were supposed to help the vehicle 3 weeks ago. Lastly, my warranty is about to expire. Now what?

    I contracted Jasper Engines to rebuild an engine for a show truck. I asked for and was told I would receive information about the engine.When the engine arrived, there was absolutely no information about the engine. I repeatedly called and sent e-mails about the missing information and was never given any information other than partial specs. for the camshaft. At 800 miles, the engine blew a head gasket requiring major repairs. This happened while the engine was under warranty. I made the repairs myself as I had also done the installation myself. I called and e-mailed Jasper Engines repeatedly about getting a warranty refund to at least cover the money I spent for parts to repair this problem. None of my phone calls or e-mails were returned.

    About 100 miles later, while still under warranty the camshaft went bad, wiping a lobe. This is not a repair I can make myself. I had to wait until I had the money to spare to pay someone to fix this. I made more attempts to speak with someone at Jasper Engines about this problem leaving voice mail messages, and sending e-mails, none of which netted any response from anyone at Jasper Engines. I can't even find out the rest of the specs. to replace the camshaft.

    The economic damage that resulted is $3,376.26 which was the purchase price for the engine, or $900 for the first repair that I made myself and the estimated repair cost for the current problem is $1,500 for a total of approximately $2,400 for repairs to a product that broke while under a warranty that the manufacturer refuses to honor.
