Everything is about saving money, these days. Cars are about that too, even if most people don’t make the connection that they should be.
With cars, more often than not, the thought is that it’s about spending money. The question is when are you supposed to spend. And typically, the expiration of the engine or the transmission is taken as a sign that it’s time to trade in and get a new set of wheels.
That typically means financing. That means more money being spent. It’s good for the automotive company, but it’s not always good for you.
On the other hand, if you can get more functionality out of your car at a fraction of the price for financing, that makes sense. Especially in times like these.
That’s why replacing the engine or transmission with a certified used part is a logical, and even superior, option.

Usually you get a warranty,that is to say-the people that put your engine in will get a warranty for the used engine. But you have to make sure they pass that on to you. Things to watch out for are odd noises,oil usage or coolant loss indicating head gasket,or possible engine damage.
