Which Kinds of Used Auto Parts Does My Auto Store Carry?

Finding the right part for your vehicle at the right price is your primary concern. That is why when your car needs a repair or replacement car part, you look at used auto parts. Used auto parts have their benefits (aside from being cheaper).

Even if you have a newer vehicle, you should consider used auto parts versus ordering brand-new replacements from your vehicle’s manufacturer or dealership.

The Benefits of Buying Used Auto Parts

  1. You Save Money

With used auto parts, you obviously save money over purchasing replacement parts brand-new.

With My Auto Store, you do not have to go through the hassles of wasting a day at the salvage yard or getting dirty looking for the part you need. Instead, you contact our team, and we check the inventory. If we have the part in stock, we will pull it for you.

  1. You Contribute to the Environment

Purchasing used auto parts is better for the environment. Instead of those components wasting away in a salvage or junkyard, they are being repurposed and used in your vehicle. The resources required to make replacement parts from scratch are also preserved.

Statistics to Know About Vehicle Recycling and Purchasing Used Parts

  • Twelve to 15 million vehicles reach their end of life each year in the United States.
  • Seventy-Five percent of vehicle materials are recycled.
  • Recycled products provide 14 million tons of steel.
  • The steel industry saves energy with recycling — enough to power almost 18 million households per year.
  • Recycling metal uses 74 percent less power consumption than making metal from ore.
  • Eighty-five million barrels of oil are saved annually for recycling versus making steel from ore.
  1. More Selection for Older Parts

Older vehicles have a harder time finding replacement parts for their vehicle. To order them from the manufacturer, it may take weeks and cost an extraordinary amount of money. Often, vehicles that are more than a few decades old do not have the option of new replacement parts.

When you go hunting for those parts from a salvage yard, you could spend hours trying to find the components you need; and often without luck.

My Auto Store’s selection of used auto parts is inventoried and easy to look through. When you come to us, you have a larger selection of used auto parts, including those that are for older makes and models — sometimes vintage models too.

  1. Used Auto Parts are Working and Still Quality Replacement Options

The parts found at My Auto Store are not poor quality. They are working, and while the vehicle was decommissioned, it was due to other faulty components. Often when a car reaches the end of its life cycle, it still has parts that are working and have thousands of more miles to go.

My Auto Store recovers those parts and puts them back into commission so that they do not go to waste.

The Selection of Replacement Car Parts You Can Find at My Auto Store

At My Auto Store, we carry an extensive selection of replacement car parts for a vast majority of makes and models including used engines and transmissions.

Even newer model auto parts are here at our store. After all, a more recent model vehicle may be considered “totaled” in an accident, but the parts of the car are still operational and valuable. Therefore, our team extracts the components that work before recycling the remainder of the vehicle.

Just some of the parts you may find at our store include:

  • Interior Components: We have everything from door trim to speedometers, steering columns, and instrument clusters for most makes and models.
  • Engine Components: Our team can help you find the parts for your assembly or cylinder heads.
  • Transmission Pieces: Transmission repairs do not have to be costly. Come to My Auto Parts first and see if we have the transmission, carrier assembly or axle shaft and assembly to repair your vehicle.
  • Steering and Suspension Components: Whether you need ABS parts, wheels, engine control modules or even a GPS unit, we have a variety of used parts that are in perfect working condition and ready for your vehicle. Our inventory also has newer GPS units for the latest makes and models.
  • Electrical and Cooling System Parts: Purchasing these parts brand-new is extremely costly, but with My Auto Store, you can get access to fan assemblies, climate controls, door and window switches, radios, and air conditioning compressors at a significant discount.
  • Body and Exterior Components: From grilles to headlight assemblies and more, we have all the exterior components you need to repair your vehicle from an auto accident, faulty parts and more.

Some of the makes and models we have in stock include:

  • Acura
  • Ford
  • Nissan
  • Mazda
  • Toyota
  • Volkswagen
  • Chevrolet
  • Scion
  • Kia
  • BMW

Sell a Car and Earn Credit Toward More Repairs

If you have an old car sitting in your driveway or on your property, you can sell that vehicle to us for cash. We will take the vehicle even if it is not working, and we can come pick up the car if it is not drivable.

Just fill out an online quote form and our team will get in touch within 24 hours to tell you how much we would pay for that vehicle.

Use the cash to buy spare parts for more repairs on your existing vehicle and have peace of mind in knowing that you have contributed to an eco-friendly way to recycle cars.
