Lance B.
1/17/24

Needed a new heater blower motor for my son's 2017 RAM 2500 SLT 6.7L diesel. Confirmed fitment with virtual agent and ordered Jan 8th and had by the 17th to Whitehorse Yukon. Part as advertised easy installation and good quality and works perfect. Very reasonable cost all in at $122.00. Highly recommend this company and I will be back. Well done Parts Avatar.

“Failed to provide a warranty credit”

Ryan M.

I bought a set of monroe shocks for my van. The failed miserably and company agreed to accept them for return if I bought another set first. I did so. After three months and numerous emails I still do not have a credit on my mastercard. I would never reccomend this company. I will tell every one I know to stay clear of Parts Avatar as they are dishonest and untruthful. I am out the cost of my shocks plus the return shipping. I am so disapointed. Never again!

Ordered a steering rack and pinion from them end of September 2022 and exactly a year later we noticed something was off but unfortunately didn't get to diagnose properly right away for several reasons (too long to explain) but do they care? Nope! Didn't even offer a discount on a replacement part, nothing, Also their chat agent Kelvin has the most condescending attitude written all other him/her. No customer service skills. Cold and unwelcoming. Very unsatisfied with a whole process.

I purchased brake pads and rotors through Parts Avatar's website and the transaction seemed almost too easy (if that's possible). Normally I struggle trying to find the specific parts I need on other websites but the filters on Parts Avatar made it simple to find exactly what I wanted within minutes. Knowing rotors weigh a little bit it was surprising that the shipping was free (yet it was). They initially estimated delivery would take about a week but then everything was at my house within days. I'll definitely shop here again!

Ordered a blower fan for my wife's jeep. It said it was high quality but it's quite noisy compared to how one sounds when you get a new car off the lot. Since I installed only a few days ago, I can't speak to quality over time but initial quality is below my expectations. However the website and delivery process was easy and the part arrived ahead of schedule. I will most likely order again.

Reason I chose this business:

It came up on a google search so I thought I’d give them a try

Reason I chose this product:

I needed to replace a blower fan

Online purchase, went well, got a good price and free delivery!
Item was delivered swiftly and easily, wrapped in bubble wrap and a band of cardboard around the center. It's an engine splash guard so no worries there, only other option is a huge box. Unwrapped and checked, all good and will review once fitted.
Thanks Parts Avatar!

Reason I chose this business:

Ease of use and online experience, plus price was really good compared to other vendors, the discount code made the decision on the purchase too.

Reason I chose this product:

Replacement for missing item on vehicle, and product aftermarket OEM quality, so happy days

Terrible customer service. It's a shame finding out now after years of being a loyal customer. I find myself with an issue returning a part and absolutely no one was able to help me what's so ever. Deliberately not answering my enquiries and avoids answering me in a timely manner.
Very disappointed and will be closing my account with then. A 1000 parts store exist in the world and I'd recommend you to go somewhere else.

Excellent customer service from Parts Avatar from start to finish. I chatted with an agent last Friday 9:50 PM, WOW! Got the fitment confirmation from the agent on the spot, a link to my cart was sent to me within the chat and I simply finished the checkout process. The part arrived within 3 days, perfect fit, easy install. I'm very happy with the product and the speed of the delivery, will buy again from Parts Avatar in the future.

Reason I chose this business:

I was looking around on the web to find a hub assy for my car and saw Parts Avatar. I had never seen or heard of them in the past. I went and browsed their site to find out that they had a great transactional web site, many different quality/options for my hub to choose from and they had great pricing.

Reason I chose this product:

Quality of service from agent / Quality of the product and price of course, which when compare to some other suppliers was pretty good.

It took 4 days from order to "shipped". When shipped,the tracking number that was supplied did not work, at all.
The chat regarding when my order would be shipped was of no use.
The package was left at my door, vulnerable to porch pirates because I was unable to track the package.
I never had any of those issues when dealing with Rockauto. Communication was excellent and my items always arrived in a couple of days.

The chat was useless

Reason I chose this business:

I wanted to support a Canadian company.

Reason I chose this product:

The price was right.

4th time dealing with Parts Avatar. I always buy break components from them. They CHAT support is excellent when you are not sure of the part number you will need. I was even more surprise to be answered in French. This is the 1st time for my son elantra 2014 GLS. This weekend will confirm if the size of the rotors and the pads are good. Keep posted.

Reason I chose this business:

Price is excellent and delivery is very fast.

Tip for consumers:
I will never use Parts Avatar again. They have been less than truthful with me, promising to refund for defective parts but not following up. I followed their procedure to the letter. Never got a refund despite several contacts by email and chat on line. They promised but did not deliver. A very expensive way to buy auto parts when defective parts are not covered as promised. I am disapointed in this company.

I'm a first time shopper at Parts Avatar, and it won't be my last. Excellent service, prompt delivery, and at a very affordable price, too. It's not always easy to find parts for vehicles that are 40-50 years old, even in the U.S. I'm very thankful that I found Parts Avatar here in Canada.

I ordered brakes for my car. Tracked it, and tracking lies and says it's been delivered. I have yet to receive anything. If I could give less than 1 star I would. I'd give this place negative stars. Customer service keeps saying they've escalated the matter and to wait 24 hours. I shall be making a case with PayPal to get fully refunded. What a waste of time.

I realize Parts Avatar can't possibly stock everything customers might need, nor can I expect parts to arrive in 2 days each time I order parts. But this shopping experience was nothing short of incredible! Great job Parts Avatar! I got the parts I needed within 48 hours, just like the "big company" also promises. Wow!

Reason I chose this business:

I prefer to shop all-Canadian, where possible. Parts Avatar is a Canadian startup company, so I want to support them. And the price was pretty much identical between Parts Avatar and "the other guys", so why not? The only concern I had was the lengthy shipping time Parts Avatar warned me about. However, the parts arrived within 48 hours!

Reason I chose this product:

I chose GSP struts based on the low price but good reviews.

I rarely order stuff from the internet. But now that I've joined Parts Avatar I'll definitely be taking care of all of my Automotive needs here. I wish I'd seen the make a video email before I started installing the shocks. My friend and I would have made a hell of a show out of it. I love you offered Ebates I'm probably going to try that with the next Parts I install from parts avatar.

Reason I chose this business:

My friend who is rebuilt several Vehicles has gone true Parts avatar for years and it's a go-to for all of us.

Reason I chose this product:

I called the Mazda dealership and they wanted $229 Canadian for one shock. I got to Monroe name brand rear shocks for my Mazda for $200 delivered to my front step.

Correct part was sent in a timely manner. Installed and did function test. All speeds are working again.
Note. Best to remove the glove box (2 fasteners at bottom) and then remove the unit. Disconnect connector and remove (1) fastener. Pry outwards gently as sponge may be stuck to the blower housing. Wiggle downwards and move out and down to remove. Reverse procedure to install the new unit. About a half hour to swap out.
Congrats, your fan is functioning again.

Reason I chose this business:

Competitive pricing and free shipping.

Reason I chose this product:

Lesser priced unit was 'Out of stock' at my time of need. Just went up to the next price bracket as it was competitive to other aftermarket products.

First time buyer here, so I was wondering the prices were too cheap for the internet!
But they were so cheap I had to try!
Faster than fast the parts arrived two days after the order date and I was shocked at how good the quality looked! I still think someone made a mistake on the pricing!
I'll definitely be coming back here first for any other parts I need.
My local small town would have been a week or more to get the part here.
To show my thanks, I've already started telling all my 4x4 buddy's to check you guys out!
Keep up the great work!
😎👍

Reason I chose this business:

I did a google search for my vehicle type brake parts and Avatar popped up!
At first I thought it was going to be a scam the price was that low.
But low enough to try and if I lost it wouldn’t have been to bad.
But No way, they came thru fulls guns a blazing!
So cheap!
And so fast!
Thx

Reason I chose this product:

Price to start with!
But once they arrived, to my shock they are great quality too!

Caliper price was good. I dislike that you have to send back the old caliper and wait for your refund, but that's the way of the industry. The part came very quickly so I was able to get to it. If the part does not last, then I will be less happy - only time will tell. I don't anticipate any problems though.

Reason I chose this business:

Easy to find online; prompt delivery and good pricing

Reason I chose this product:

I may not have needed this caliper, but I decided to replace one questionable original part. The fit was verified when you put in your car details, and I installed it without any problems. I will definitely check out Parts Avatar for future parts - I usually check several sites and find what looks like the best deal. I have three older cars on the road (me, wife, son) so I am always looking to save $.
