When your Buick engine fails, replacing the entire vehicle isn’t the most cost-effective choice. A quality used Buick engine delivers reliable performance at a fraction of the cost of a new engine. Unlike junkyard parts, our used engines are inspected, compression-tested, and certified for durability.
Whether you drive a Buick Encore, Enclave, Regal, LaCrosse, Verano, or Century, a used engine lets you restore performance and extend the life of your vehicle without breaking the bank.
A properly sourced used Buick engine is not a gamble. Each engine is carefully inspected, cleaned, and tested to ensure it meets quality and reliability standards.
Key components checked or refurbished include:
Every unit undergoes compression and leak testing to ensure it functions correctly before shipping.
