Needed a simple cabin air filter. Looked up the price online was $8.59. Site said it was available on the store for the same price. I goto Watertown NY they said it was $23.00. When I asked why it was so high the lady seemed to get angry and said I will get the manager. THE MANAGER WAS OVER THE TOP RUDE. He was angry just walking up to the counter. He threw his arms up and said thats an internet price. I pulled up on my phone what the web site said. The manger did not even care. The serious problem is the guy was an extreme jerk, extremely rude. I will NOT ever go back to that store in Watertown NY ever. The other customer in line behind me came out when I was still on my car and said they were wrong and he said the manager was rude to him as well.
If I could rate less than one star I would. The manager “Larry” I believe should not have a job there. Other workers tried to be as helpful as they could. I ordered a caliper online ship to home with 25% off and the wrong one came in.. ok whatever I’ll call them have them order the right one and swap it out. They didn’t have one without a bracket for over a week and Larry says I have to pay the 9 dollars difference.. okay whatever I’ll replace the bracket for 9 dollars and sleep on it. I get there to return the wrong one and pick up the correct one and pay the difference and they try to get 45 dollars more out of me saying they can’t give me the 25% off it’s a corporate issue with the online orders and they can’t do anything about it. (At this point I’m a little irritated vans been on jack stands for closer to a week) but ok I’ll order it online again and have the 25% off and grab it while I’m there.. nope website won’t allow me to choose the store bc it “doesn’t have any in stock”.. okay I’m more irritated but not gonna ruin my day over it, I can wait for the part to get it cheaper, soI tell them I’ll just order it online ship to home and wait on it. Mind you Larry has been talking to me like I’m an idiot saying I should have known this whole time. I start to walk out after telling him I’d just re order it ship to home and I say thanks anyways. I’m halfway to the door hobbling on a broken leg and Larry starts in with his condescending mouth now I’m pissed mfer couldn’t let me just walk out the door and go about my day so I tell the manager Larry off take myself and broken leg back out to my car and hit the road. Ordered a coated name brand caliper from rock auto on the way home for 50 dollars less with faster shipping.
I run a shop in the area and this is the last place I will ever call for a part. I call and, if by some miracle, someone actually answers, they are completely useless. They dont know parts, delivery is ridiculously slow, and you better pray that the part is the right one.
Horrible waited 10 minutes for a refund and 10 more minutes for a part I had placed on hold the day before could have fixed my car in the time I spent waiting will use them only as a last resort from now on unacceptable I can see why there is almost always no customers in this store while autozone is almost always busy,

2021-12-03Customer service was good, unfortunately we were given the wrong parts. Whoever pulled them pulled the part next to the one we needed. However it was still ok.

2021-04-05Im not handy when it comes to vehicles. So having someone who doesnt mind coming to check out my vehicle when its having problems is very reassuring! The guys in the shop took care of me today. I didnt get their names but good job guys! Keep doing what youre doing!

2021-07-13Place is a joke. Tried to buy parts at the counter but was told what I needed was ONLY available available as a kit. Got online and ordered just what I wanted and picked it up at the exact same counter. Maybe you need employees that put some effort into helping customers

2021-07-06Was told by manager that this is not a pick up location despite it being offered as a pick up location through ups. The manager told me he was going to send my package back to UPS and he asked me please dont ever do that again. Not to mention it was concerning that he never checked my ID for the pick which is supposed to be required so someone else doesnt take my package. Very strange and unpleasant interaction with Advanced Auto. I would ask that you please take yourselves off the ups pickup list instead of treating customers in this unprofessional way.
