My husband stopped in today for windshield wipers and was happy to see that he wasnt pressured into buying something more expensive than what he really needed and the manager offered to put them on for him. He is always pleased with his experiences here. Very helpful and great customer service.
My van was dying out. I stopped by advanced auto parts to get a new battery. Patrick went above and beyond to help. Not only did he replace my battery, but he was able to identify the alternator was bad. He then proceeded to refer me to shops he knows and called around town and found me same day service. This saved my entire weekend. I highly recommend them to anyone. The service was above and beyond!
$55 per piece for cheaply made outer tie rod ends. They, among other stores like autozone, and others use Google to mislead you on prices. If you see a quoted price from one of these places on Google, its almost certain its for another model. These places have mastered the art of ripping you off knowing you will need the part right away. Huge markup on the cheaply made parts. Its best to think ahead, and use the massive online marketplace to purchase the parts you need.
Pretty decent staff. They got me my own private parking now soooo......
Car was having battery issues on a Sunday. Pulled in here and they were able to help get us back on the road and ready to keep going. Bonus is that its near a grocery, so if you happen to have kids who need to get out of the car and get snacka while youre doing some maintenance, this might be the right spot for you.
Patrick and his crew at Advance have always been super helpful and professional. One of there employees actually walked me through step by step on how to do a tune up on my Lincoln because he knew how and was kind enough to tell me. Whenever I need car parts I will always stop here. Ive lived in grand rapids for years now but this is still my go to place. Kudos to every worker 👏
I ask for help on an location a part in a car I just bought and no help, very rude manners and making some inappropriate jokes.
The entire store was really helpful. Even while busy they took care of everything I needed.
Friendly staff. Had some good laughs and were professional about their job.
Service at the counter to get the part number for the correct windshield wiper blade that I needed was pretty standard. However I was quite disappointed when there were 3 workers in the store, only 1 other customer, but they never offered to put them on for me. Kinda funny when its plastered all over their windows and inside the store that they will change them for u for free...apparently just not when its snowing outside. That was kinda the point of buying the new wipers in the first place!
I called over to Advance Auto parts and asked for a sensor for my tow truck. I noticed that their price was much higher than Autozone’s and I asked if I created a commercial account with them would that change the price. He stated he would have to speak to his manager about that, I let him know, I will be in shortly and I’ll speak to him in person. Once I made it in Patrick whom is the manager was the person to assist me. Patrick stated that the process to become a commercial partner with advance auto is a little difficult and I would have to spend a certain amount with them in order to receive my discount. Mentally noting Yo myself I spend roughly about 800 bucks minimum a month with Autozone and their Commercial department. I didn’t say anything I just nodded my head and continue to agree. My guess he didn’t want to create a commercial account for me. They didn’t have the parts that I actually needed he let me know that I can go to Napa or some other store and pointed me in the direction of Grandville/Grand Rapids area. Patrick stated there is a location on Port Sheldon but that may be too far for you. I then told Patrick the manager that I actually live in the direction of Port Sheldon. Patrick the advance auto‘s sales manager then responded oh really, in a form of shock that I live in that direction. I then ask him about special coatings for the bed of my tow truck or any thing that would line the bed of the tow truck, at this point he was very distant and very non-helpful and said I don’t know what will help you with that we carry these products and pointed me in the direction of the spray cans that are in their inventory. My guess if you are minority and a small business owner you do not want to go to advance auto parts, if you expect good customer service and to be treated fairly. I do not recommend this place for anyone that’s looking for a good customer service because the leader of this location is showing a horrible example to Lead by.
Always great service, diverse workforce which is cool. A+++
Ive bought plenty of parts for a handful of cars here and never have issues. Good parts and these guys know know their stuff.Pat and Mitch especially have been a great resource. Thanks guys!
They had just the part
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Always helpful. Prices of parts are also affordable.
I want to give an amazing review to two amazing persons and customer service from this advance auto parts, but most to Patrick and trek, I came here to get some parts for my 2001 lincoln town car and everything was in stock plus, when I left I received a call later after about 20 min hey the sistem do a mistake or some parts was over charged, can y go back please, sounds amazing I go back and boom, I get more parts with that refund and i meet two amazing humans, thanks for have y guys in our daily life, we always need people like them to help us. ( note : tomorrow I pick up one more part, order by them before I get there because we talk in the phone first but he remember, thanks )ThanksSincerelyAlfredo Gonzalez Lopez
Very helpful staff
Extremely helpful team members... Helped test my batteries and determined only one was dead dead and needing replacement.
Bo was amazing and was super eager to help me with my car problems. Any questions I had this person had the answers too. If it wasn’t for him my kids would’ve had to walk to school in the cold and I would’ve never been able to get to work on time. This man he saved me so much time and effort. Now my car is running perfectly without a hitch. Thanks Bo you are one of the few great ones left.
We needed a car battery and we were quickly helped with reccomendation and gentlemen helped us take out old battery and replace with new in the rain. Definitely recommend! Kind service. Tested our battery beforehand and everything
Great customer service! The right place to go if youre in need of auto parts. They will get you the part that you need as long as they carry it. There is no need to wonder around the store searching for what you wish to purchase. Simply give the information to an employee and they will help.
This store used to be one of the best in town. They used to go out of their way to make sure you got what you needed without having to go down the road. There seems to have been a turn over in employees over the last year and the current staff lacks customer service, knowledge, and willingness to search for anything outside of what the computer says.
Poor customer service. If you want to deal with employees that need to be told what to do, then this is the place for you.
Always a great experience anytime I’ve came in. The staff is ACTUALLY knowledgeable about cars/parts & if they can’t answer a question they try to figure out a solution one way or another for you! The points system is pretty cool & shopping online & selecting the in store pick up option saves you a ton of cash. Big shout out to Matt & the lovely lady who’s name starts with a B (I can not spell it to save my life) aka Marcus lol you guys are awesome! Stellar customer service!
Best location in Michigan. Quick excellent service with empathic staff hard to come by these days anywhere you go
Solid store like the ability to check stock online and pick up in store, have used multiple of their branded batteries and all have met or exceeded warranty. Only thing I might score down on is like most auto part stores check prices - some items are better than others in terms of best deal, and also what brands they carry if you have a preference.
Nice to go a place and the techs lnow what products you need
Good place to find parts quickly and for a good price. I got a new battery and they quickly installed it for me at no extra cost. Tip: you get a better price of you order online.
Theyre very nice and kind to us. Thank you so much.
I prefer to run Purolator filters in my cars. Its odd that I dont find them on the shelf anywhere but here. Great filters at a fair price...
Get all our parts here!
Generally have a good selection of affordable parts. The staff here is relatively friendly and some employees are knowledgeable. As far as parts quality you get what you pay for, I would choose Napa for electrical components just for the extra quality. Overall a good place for brake parts and miscellaneous bolts, pins, etc.
Went in to get my battery tested, which clearly says they do for free right on the windows of the store, and the guys working, WAYNE, to be exact was extremely rude & literally recommended we go to their competition store, auto zone, so he didn’t have to do the test..... once he came outside, he couldn’t even open the hood, so we had to do it for him...then he told me my battery was overcharged & proceeded to hand me a slip of paper which read the battery was actually low.... then randomly said I have a bad alternator.. then I asked where the alternator was & he pointed in the completely wrong spot. Once the testing was done he didn’t say a word, just walked right back inside. Awful customer service!
The manager here is a real piece of work. Ive had multiple issues buying parts here... both were when I worked with the same manager. The rest of the staff is great, but there are plenty of other auto parts store in town that stand by their word and policies
The customer service was terrible. Needed a stud for a boat trailer wheel. They have so many in stock that they couldnt possibly take the time to help us... 😠 Really? ? We left and went to OReilly.
Excellent service I bought a battery for a fair price and it was installed free. The guys were great very friendly and polite.
Friendly and somewhat helpful staff but not very professional.
Was told on the phone theyd work with me on a better discount, so I ordered. THEY LIED and didnt really care. Spent over $600 on parts, was told I should have made separate online orders for each part due to the 20% discount being capped at $50. Tried keeping my money local and they dont care!! Back to supporting the online powers that be due to our local businesses not giving a rats a**!!!
My other choice for auto parts and helpful employees.
Super helpful, just the best.
Patrick and the team here are awesome! Super quick, helpful and got our car running again in no time.
Clean store. Well stocked. Friendly and helpful staff
Went in for a check engine light test and the guy working couldnt tell me what the problem meant or how to fix it.
Came in for a headlight and the guy who helped us was very friendly and helpful. Checked and double checked to make sure he gave me the right number and then helped me find it on the shelf.
The best auto parts chain in the world.! Soo happy with my purchases! Speed perks are the best way to save while ordering online for in store pick up
Always good deals, especially online. Employees are always nice, but most of them are not very knowledgeable about cars and or their products.
Wayne is kind of a douche
Hands down the best auto part store locally, best prices, best employees, and best parts, have spent thousands of dollars and continue to come back
Depends on what ur looking for. Special tools and parts are not readily available. Good for specials on oil, filters, etc. Good staff.
Awesome. Didnt realize that they sold car parts. 😀
Purchased a battery and it was installed in minutes in terrible weather! Appreciate the service!
Over priced on some items
They employees dont know how to order parts and keep track properly, stole 20 dollar part from me. They shoild learn a thing or two about employees knowing what the hell theyre doing from Napa or Auto Zone.
Tend to ask for too much info on check out. Usually seems like a ploy to get you on their Spam list
Free tool rent is great however you need to basically buy the tool then when you return it you get your money back
Good place to get parts, but there is definitely an atmosphere issue in the store. Staff, Dave in particular, doesnt seem very motivated to be welcoming to customers.
The staff at this Advance Auto is the best. Always helpful and friendly. Thanks....
Guys were very helpful and good prices on what we needed.
Good crew, unfortunately the last couple of times they did not have they part I needed.
Fixed me up with a new battery very quickly even though it -7 out! He took the time to do it right to, used a terminal puller, repaired a bad wire.
Friendly, always have what I need, I dont usually need help but they can be very helpful when needed.
Rippoff... first they tried to sell me one for triple the price then when I caught him doing that they just tried to short-change me out of a 20. Management seems confrontational. I think Ill sell my car
Night staff had no clue about anything autozone had me in and out
Great service and kind workers
Got to wait about 5 mins if you are using a digital coupon and pay with phone. Kinda a waste of time.
Staff are always willing to help out the best they can.
Great helpers fora single Mom!!
Manager was extremely helpful and understanding!
Convenient hours and standard tool options and good prices
Good place for buy clothes
They sometimes will skip over the next in line, if it is for a battery test or diagnostic.
Got the wrong brake pads delivered to me. The employee acted confused when I was trying to return them. Then when returning my caliper cores the employee asked why? I said Theyre cores, theres a core charge. He says, Whats wrong with them?
I just had a simple question and the man at the front desk was so condescending, and rude.
Have had a commercial account with advance Auto for a few years now and a lot of the employees at this location are clueless.
Helpful and friendly staff.
The best customer service anyone can get in retail auto parts and batteries!
Mmmmm parts
I had a problem with a truck I just bought I didnt know whether it was alternator or is that the battery they checked out the alternator replace the battery and I have not had any problems since their mechanic Scott is a very knowledgeable and friendly man
They give military discount.
Guys need to cheer the hell up. Its a job.
Purchased a battery and the installation process proved quite difficult but Austin kept his composure and got the job done well. Thank you!
My go to for parts
Most helpful staff!!
Service was rude. Needed to pick up new engine air filters for both my vehicles. Associate argued with me that they dont exist. He made me ask for an air filter instead of engine air filter.
Had what I went there for
Helpful staff.
