I was broke down having a rough day. Whitney stopped me and asked me some thorough questions about the job I was performing on my company vehicle. In turn this lead too one less trip because she reminded me that I needed a part I was forgetting that made my day.

Outstanding customer service from Cynthia. I did not find what I needed at the store, but she pointed me in the right direction when she did not have to.

Very good service from parts clerks. Decent inventory despite covid supply chain in these tough times. Store was clean and organized. They didn't have exactly what I needed but they had some alternatives that worked. Folks in the parking lot are often interesting

Ronquise Veal is by far the best part man there. Very informative, knowledgeable, helpful, as well as very easy on the eyes. I will say I will be back only for car parts .On a more serious note:Thanks Ronquise you really went above and beyond to help me feel at peace that I was buying the correct part for my car and the fact that your a mechanic just further more made it easy to trust your judgment. I am up and running thanks to you....

I like this auto parts store. It's only three blocks away from home which is good because when I work on an auto or truck I know that I'll have to go back to the store at least two or three times. The staff are friendly and capable of helping with your automotive parts and chemicals.

This review is hopefully a wakeup call for someone! Downgraded to 1 star September 2021:I had a problem with my starter. I knew that, so I went to the the nearest Advance and the lady at this location is friendly and helpful. I had gotten there after physically banging on the starter itself; and unfortunately, it froze completely in the parking lot.The helpful lady remembered me from prior visits and advised the starter was not in stock at this store. I asked her to check the other stores, and went outside to attempt to revive, and ultimately remove the starter.About 30 minutes passed, and I went inside to ask again. Unfortunately, I was advised by an older gentlemen that she got off of her shift. Another man had replaced her. And so I asked again.More time passed, and my battery grew weak from repeated attempts. I go inside to ask for a socket wrench and battery jump cables or a jump box.Of the 3, they had none in working order, nor did they ever check on getting a starter. I called work, got a ride, went and got tools and cables, and make all arrangements. I found a starter at the Advance Auto "hub" on Pio Nono Ave. I ordered it, and picked it up READY IN 30 minutes. Finally, with my own tools and labor, I installed the starter in the parking lot of Advance on Mercer University Dr.The older man was kind enough to put the battery on charge, (it was a gold battery fr Advance Auto and under warranty). I did not see that employee when I completed the install. Incidentally, he also helped a lady install her battery at the beginning of this horrible day..So, greasy and tired, I go in the store with black soot and dirt on my face and oil on my shirt, hands, and arms. (oil was from valve cover gaskets). The man was kind enough to retrieve the battery, and let me use the restroom. I was careful not to get it dirty.So, I request him to install the battery or at least turn the bolts bc I was nearing dehydration. Noting his apathy, I grabbed it from the counter where he had put it, and said, "Please bring out a battery wrench at least." He never even did that. What a guy! Rather, he said " Are you sure it will crank?"It started like a champ. I quickly secured the tools and headed to get a ride back.I ultimately retrieved the second vehicle, which I had left parked in the parking lot, at about 8:45 p.m. and arrived home after 9 p.m.I was thankful for my air conditioning and water. A very long difficult day, filled with apathetic attitudes and very little assistance. I would do more for a stranger on the side of the road, and I am an elite speed perks customer.May 5, 2021Great experience today, upgraded from 3 to 4 stars!WOW,the reply alone from management ups my rating from 2 stars to 3. HOPEFULLY, at 4 and then 5 soon!Original post:Individuals in store appear to lack ambition as if on site merely to kill time. Very few customers in store. Masks optional. No restroom for public use.
