Quality-Built 16626 QB Premium Remanufactured Starter

The Quality-Built 16626 is a QB Premium remanufactured starter, engineered and tested to meet or exceed original equipment (OE) specifications. Manufactured by Motor Car Parts of America (MPA) — the largest remanufacturer of import starters and alternators in North America — this starter undergoes a rigorous remanufacturing process designed to deliver dependable starting performance with every turn of the key.

Unlike a typical rebuilt unit that may reuse worn components, every part prone to normal wear in a QB Premium starter is replaced with a new component regardless of its condition at the time of remanufacture. The result is a remanufactured starter that outperforms conventional rebuilt units in reliability and longevity.
