LKQ Viking Auto Salvage is a business that provides used auto parts, often at great prices. The location itself has amazing customer service and professional, ingenious staff who work hard to help customers. Many find it a great solution for parts unavailable elsewhere and report fast, easy service. Customers have purchased items like differentials, motors, wheels, and tires for a fraction of the cost of new, with several positive experiences noted over years of use. However, the experience can be inconsistent and sometimes confusing. While some parts are described as very nice and work perfectly, other items have been wrong in ways that do not make sense, leading to frustrating extra trips. The condition of parts, like motors, can vary greatly depending on how carefully they were pulled from salvage vehicles. Some customers also find the ordering process, particularly regarding will-call versus shipping options, to be annoying. Despite these issues, many customers recommend the business and plan to return.
Bought a 2014 F150 V6 twin turbo diesel engine. Was very satisfied with Scott Humphrey in Customer Service. Quotations were emailed immediately and calls returned promptly. He was polite and helpful. Not sure why they sell the twin turbos separate from the engine as engine is of no value without the turbos.

We called looking for a used motor and talked to Steph. He was very polite and professional. We had another question about a transmission and again he was very knowledgeable about that as well. We definitely will be working with him in the future! Yes- we did buy the motor from them.
