French Lake Auto Parts, Inc. JunkYard Reviews
4.3 stars based on 30 reviews- MMinhsane
Great staff and had my parts already pulled on the shelf. They had spare EZ30 parts for me to keep my subaru on the road! Now you can get parts and go but visit the yard if you have time! Lots of amazing classics you don't get to see anywhere else. Tugs on the heart strings to see cars like that in the yard but they'll keep other classics on the road. Thanks again French Lake Auto! I'll definitely stop by again for the nostalgia!!

I ordered a hard to find transmission from David Becker. One of the best experiences I have ever had with a business. Great knowledge, great customer service. Received my order in 5 days, and I am in Alabama. Great organization to do business with. I highly recommend them. I will be doing more business with them in the future. Thanks for you help. Mark

Been buying from this place for over 4 years.. Spent quite a bit of money... This last time though I got the impression my request was a waste of there time since I was asked "Whats it worth to you" I needed a few clips for some window trim was willing to pay over $50 bucks for just two clips and was given the runaround.. Was then told "We have to think about the labor" Really it took me all of 10 minutes to remove the trim.. I even sent them a photo and where the screws were.. Three weeks later was told, sick, short weeks, holidays.. I get it however don't lead off with "Whats it worth to you" You are the seller not me.. Perhaps the people working there have changed because thats not the customer service I received in the past.. Doesn't make a whole lot of since since they are in the business of making money not excuses.. Guess I will be taking my business elsewhere..

No help or greeting when entering. Give your info, describe the parts you want, and go out in the yard with printouts. Guys in the yard were super helpful. They should have a tip jar. This place has so many parts it’s incredible. Going back to the 1930s!! See pics.

Parts that were shipped were not as pictured. There was a missing turn signal lens cover and the hood ornament that was not sent even though I have an email confirmation from Kody that stated all parts pictured of the front end assembly would be sent. Good communication until I had an issue and then was ghosted with no response. The rest of the parts were as described so I can't complain too much but the customer service from Kody could certainly be improved. (Not the nicest fella on the phone but that's pretty much the norm nowadays).

Got two new rims for my car here for a little over the price of one at every other place I called. I ended up a few bucks short because I didn't take tax into consideration and they gave me a 10 dollar discount so I could afford the rims. Super sweet people and really great prices for great quality. Thank you so much French lake ❤️

A few years back. I was looking to shake out a car deal with French Lake Auto Parts Inc. When I was assisted by their technicians I was treated with the utmost respect. Actually the title and sales team together did a great job. In conclusion I did not purchase the vehicle I was looking to purchase. It was not due to their team at all. I simply found a vehicle more to my liking. Amendment 7-30-2020; 1971 VW Beetle found its way to us. To only be brought from the Steel Grave Yard and Recycling . On it's way to the California Beaches again !

I would like to say that Kody Ericsson at French Lake Auto Parts Inc. Has been my go to since about 3 years ago. He has been very helpful ,knowledgeable and professional right from the start. If I have a question or am looking for a difficult part he can find it or locate it! Along with other helpful staff. Be it a phone call or an email. He is makes himself very accessible. I get prompt and accurate responses and there are no surprises. He has made my quest in getting parts for my project vehicles a pleasant experience. Kudos to all the staff of French Lake Auto Parts inc, and especially a shout out to Kody for all his help. I'm a customer for the long haul now! Thanks to him. A very happy customer. Thank you very much! Jeff

The best junkyard in the state of Minnesota and possibly the world. They had parts for my classic firebird and Camaro. Very grateful to these people and I will be back with all my friends. I have lots of friends with Firebirds and Camaros and we will keep coming here forever. Best customer service thank you so much French lake Auto!
- BBob Hiser
Great folks to deal with in every way! INCREDIBLE inventory of older cars - especially. I just purchased parts for a 1967 Barracuda that are exactly what I need. I was able to see pictures and all. Kody was excellent to deal with! I highly recommend French Lake Auto Parts for all your salvage parts needs

I recently purchased a used engine from them on ebay that was described as a "Good Runner" with only 71,000 miles. When I received the engine I immediately noticed they had taken a grinder to 3-4 spots on the engine and I thought that was strange. When I got it in the shop under the bright lights and took a closer look I realized they had ground the partial vin #s off the block and heads which is Illegal under federal law. Having a feeling I just got JACKED, I took a closer look before contacting the seller. It still had several quarts of nasty oil in it which probably had 71,000 miles on it. Not to mention that all fluids are supposed to be removed before shipping! Upon further inspection it was obvious that this engine did not have 71,000 miles. More like 171k+! When I contacted them they first denied grinding the vin off then later said the engines don't have vins!! Then they went on to accuse me of it. They also said that I couldn't return it and the warranty was void because I tampered with it when all I did was take a quick peek inside to check the condition of the internals! STAY AWAY FROM THIS BUSINESS!!! As far as I'm concerned they are running a chop shop and as many others have said, they are rude, condescending and very unprofessional!!

I had the pleasure to visit French Lake Auto Parts, on two occasions. I was met by a helpfull staff, Thank You Dale ! I was new to this shop but was pleased at the yard lay out and quality of the inventory. I will be making another visit soon and have expanded my list of items I will be looking for. If there was a grading option for six stars, i would give it to them. Thanks !

Good service and courteous counter people. Found hard to find old parts at a very fair price. Thank you.
- RRussell Wilkins
These guys are very helpful, knowledgeable with reasonably priced on there parts
- RRob Rydberg
I have done business with them for years. I do not know where the idea of being ripoffs comes from, but my dealings have always been fair and aboveboard. I would recommend you deal with these folks and make your own decisions. The reviews, and my experience, speak to the contrary of being dishonest.

French Lake Auto Parts went above and beyond to help me. Top notch experience and I can't thank them enough for what they did for me. I live in Florida and drive a 27-year-old F-150. It's a truck I absolutely love and won't give up. I just keep fixing it. I needed a hard to find and very specific part. I couldn't find it anywhere in my home state of Florida, called more than 50 places. Online French Lake Auto Parts is the only place I could find in the entire nation that had the part. Was going to order it, but online the only option was regular economy shipping. I was in a pinch and needed the part as soon as possible. I couldn't wait a week or so for it to arrive from Minnesota to Florida. I called French Lake Auto Parts around 4:00 p.m. on a Friday and explained the situation. Was basically told overnight shipping is not something most people ask for and they don't really do a whole lot of it. End result was the part was immediately boxed up while I was still on the phone with them and was brought to a FedEx location to be dropped off for overnight shipping within a couple hours of when I called. It was on a plane that same night according to the package tracking. Very friendly service, it took more than one phone call within a half hour or so to get everything squared away, since my situation was complicated, through the entire process the service was absolutely outstanding. The woman I talked to, can't remember her name, went above and beyond to listen to my situation and help me. And also to the gentleman who went to a FedEx store on his way home from work at French Lake Auto Parts to drop off my part to be overnighted, and leave me a voicemail letting me know what the tracking number for the package was, many many thanks. It's not often in this modern day that you get such outstanding service. And the price of the part was very fair, all around an amazing experience. Thank you so much

Have scored parts for several old cars there. Doing a freshen-up on a 66 Cadillac, David happily helped me with control arms and a trim piece. Fun place to look around too!
- TTyler Norton
By far the best place to go and look at cars and parts on your own, people are vary respectful, and have the most cars ever seen. one of the few that let you walk in the yard
- JJesse Brueshaber
They allow U to walk the classic cars after signing a waiver. Bought French Lake Auto t-shirts to thank them. T-shirts only $15.

I ordered a part from them. When it came to me. I opened it up just a little to make sure it was the right color and it was. Today I went to put on the fender and took it out of the package. It was for a completely different model. I called to raise my concern and the owner or whomever the prick was I talked to. He was a complete ass about the whole thing. He was trying to say I ordered the part that was sent. I told him why would I order a part for something that I do not have here. We went back and forth a little. I asked if he was going to pay for the shipping for the return and he said it was your problem to ship it back. I said that is total BS. Then he asked if i wanted the right one. I said really? Why would I want to do business with you. Your customer service just sucks. So I checked what the price was going to be to send it back and decided to keep it. I know someone that might be able use it. I totally agree with Rob S and Caleb B. Very rude and unfriendly person. The guy was just a complete dick. He is the type of person that gives retail businesses a bad name. From my experience and the 2 that I mentioned and forgive for the ones I forgot to put on here. Just stay away from this business.
- AAaron Ketcher
Maybe it's because I live just down the road, or I go to many junkyards.? The cars make it special. The employees are hit or miss, Dave at the front desk can be difficult and guys in the yard are confused. Yet I always get good $$ for the old cars I bring to them. And they definitely make $$ off the parts I buy.
- EEmelson Palacios
I purchased a transmission for a 2003 Chevrolet trailblazer trough eBay. The transmission was defective and they denied a return. I just would not recommend this place to do business with. They stole my hard earned money. This is America and they are stealing peoples money. If there is anyone out there that can help please do. I am sure this review may not make a difference, but I’m sure I am not the only one getting ripped of. The owner of this establishment could use the feedback and perhaps a wake up call.
- EEaston Miller
Kody with the customer service was helpful in finding the wing vent assemblies for my 49 Chevy Fleetline. Reasonable price. I will update when I receive them and confirm they are the correct assemblies, but overall so far in the process they have been great to work with.
- JJames Smith
I should not have given them a bad review. They totally took care of me. I would have updated my review a long time ago but forgot I even did a review. I actually owe them an apology. I ordered an 04 liberty transmission from them. It looked like trash on arrival. After my shop installed it. Just like it looked it was junk. They will not respond to me or eBay despite several attempts. My mechanic really thinks there selling core transmission that need rebuilt. He’s probably right. This is a very high risk company to buy from. Don’t waste your money.
