Feeling out this survey, I honestly forgot how rude things were when I came in today. I was not greeted and it was noticeable as it appears the manager was standing by himself at the front register and did not say a thing. It felt extremely awkward. I bought a bolt that I was skeptical to buy but the manager advised that it was for the truck that I have so I took his word for it. It turns out that it was the wrong size bolt and when I bought it back looking to return it for the correct size he said (the mgr) would not return it. I told him that I would be fine with exchanging or store credit but he would not do either. I asked multiple times about exchanging it because I never had this issue in the past 20 years and I have spent thousands of dollars at advance over the past 20 years as my main auto parts supplier on my older cars and trucks. This is actually on top of the fact that I was sent a brake hose in the mail that should have included the washers from advance but did not the previous day. After not being able to exchange or obtain store credit for a part the manager advised would work, I went to NAPA on Albemarle Rd and they did have the correct size and they also gave me the additional washers that Advance should have sent me for free. They have just gained a very loyal customer. Its a shame but I cannot afford to waste money like this at a store and feeling slightly disrespected as a customer. In my honest opinion, the Rocky River store where I bought the bolt from has not had the same service I used to be used to a couple years ago. Lastly, per the question above, I asked the manager at checkout if I can use my Speed Perks credit and he said, you can use it online... I am sure I am missing something in this review but I will leave it at that for now. I will be enjoying NAPA after I use up whatever is left on my Speed Perks credit.

I been coming to this store for about 5 years now and only reason why because it’s convenient to me. I keep forgetting to leave a review in how unhelpful their employees and rude like you begging them something. They can learn a thing or two from O’Rielys

I stopped in advance auto today on Rocky River. The young man Dennis helped me. He was absolutely great. He was so helpful. I had to buy a key battery. He took the key fob apart cleaned it off and got me straight very impressive, young man.jsp
