Auto Computer Exchange autocomputerexchange.com Defective merchandise, refusal to refund money after failing to provide me with a working product. Davie, Florida

In mid July of 2011 my SUV's PCM (computer) died.  So I looked around and ordered one from Auto Computer Exchange.  Big mistake.  The first item they sent me functioned for a short while (about 2 days) and then started having the same problems that my original computer had.....  While I was on vacation with my family 500 miles away from home. I called them up and, after explaining the situation, got them to send me a replacement.

(I might add that I have a degree in electronics engineering and have been repairing both gasoline and diesel engines for many years.  I know what I am talking about when I say the PCM is defective)

The replacement unit NEVER worked properly.  This led me to believe that it was simply a problem with my wiring or some other electrical component.  After replacing/testing numerous parts, checking the integrity of my wiring, and finally taking it into a shop that specializes in automotive electrical, it has been determined that the PCM is still the problem.

So I called up their number and explained how they have now sent me two defective units.  I asked if they could just send me back my original, I would send their broken PCM, and just give me my money back.  They, of course, would only offer store credit and stated that they didn't even have my original anymore.  I then asked if, since they had my broken unit and I had been sold a broken unit, we could just call it even and return my money.  Still no dice.

These people are thieves.  They are simply selling salvaged PCM/ECM's to people and claiming that they are "rebuilding" them.  It is no wonder that they have a "F" rating with the Better Business Bureau.

I now have to spend an additional $300+ in order to get a PCM from a reputable auto parts dealer.
