Owner reviews for starter motor

I had bought a TYC starter for my 99 Jeep works fantastic, yeah they’re new and they made in China

I used a starter from them in a Chevy impala and it worked fantastic until I sold the vehicle for other reasons

I put a TYC starter in a 2007 Santa Fe 2.7L the first week of December, 2023. Still working great since then. It's my neighbor's car and they were on a budget, but so far so good.

I got a Denso reman from Napa and it works fine still.

DIYer advice: when I go on RockAuto's website, I see that Bosch offers 2 different starter motors: one for the manual, with 0.8 kW, and one for the automatic, with 1.0kW (click on the Info buttons for that information).

I've had 3 starters fail in the last months. All at about 10 years of age. I only install Honda starters. They have a stellar record.

I have an 06 178k miles and my starter just failed on me. I was hoping it was a relay or switch but I had a new OEM one put in for around $800 ish as well.

Definitely get that starter -- even the OEM new Bosch ones suck

It wouldn't surprise me if your having issues with a replacement part even if it's brand new. New parts have been getting shitter and shitter. Even if they come from well known brands or even the OEM manufacture. I had 3 starter motors fail on my Nissan.

I’ve had the issue for a long time, since it was 11,000 miles or so, the dealer then diagnosed it with various things and replaced the starter, battery twice, and most recently in 2023, the button was replaced under recall.
