Received a bad part
February 23, 2024

I purchased a throttle body from them and it's sat in my garage for at least a month because I was on the road. I was finally able to install it and found it was defective and now RockAuto says because it's beyond 30 days they will not refund my money. They have lost a customer

Terrible customer service
December 29, 2023

Reach out to Rock Auto, no phone number online only customer service.
I explain, not recieved, not my house in the delivery confirmation pic FedEx sent.
FedEx wouldn't even talk to me about it and directed me to deal with Rock Auto.

Online system tells me to check with neighbors and canvass my neighborhood. What a load of BS!
Then it says I must wait another 7 days to open a claim " in case it shows up"!
Today after waiting 7 days I go back and initiate claim, system has the gall to ask if I want a replacement shipped, store credit or a refund.
Clearly I want a refund as I already had to get a more expensive local starter as I needed my car for Xmas.
Now I have to wait up to 3 business days for a refund and it's Friday the 29th.
I realize that FedEx messed up initially but Rock Auto making me wait 7 more days to even address the issue and then up to 3 bussiness days for a refund is terrible don't care customer service.

Ordered 4 parts returned boxes unopened. Paid for shipping labels to return parts. They say they didn't receive all parts. Refunded 140 instead of 250. I'd say it's a problem. Either they didn't ship everything or the employees got a bonus. You pick.

I bought an AC Condenser from Rock Auto. I had it installed at a dealer. It also cools transmission fluid,which their CSR denied,but I have a factory drawing that proves I am right. About a day after I had it installed,it leaked out transmission fluid and my transmission (40,000 miles) was ruined. They are dishonest and irresponsible. I am at loss of over $4000 thanks to Rock Auto.

Ordered the correct fuel pump for my Infinity g35x however after removing the original I found the fuel lines would not fit. Rockauto would not refund me for the shipping. Was not my fault and it would seen I shouldn't have to pay half the return shipping!

NO customer dervice
September 20, 2023

Rockauto's website SUCKS! They refuse to let you ask a question that is not in their FAQs. I have a question that needs a human to answer it. Forget it!

Wrong Part, twice. Part sent completely different from description. Now have to wait for a refund, maybe.
Do yourself a favor, shop elsewhere, a great price for the wrong Part is not a good deal.

Rock Auto
August 26, 2023

F X shipping
August 17, 2023

FX continues to deliver parts making theft easy to accomplish by not following directions stated in my FX account. Rock has great parts but if they aren't received, it's not worth ordering from Rock.

Rockauto is terrible
August 8, 2022

If they send you the wrong part you won't be able to call anyone to correct the part. The process of reporting it is unreliable. Then you're paying the return shipping on their mistake. Forget about being able to talk to someone to ensure the part is proper for a second purchase. They have a reputation of shipping faulty or incorrect parts from what i discovered in the following days of my incident.

I order a few different part for my car when I receive the package I was one piece of parts from my order and when I contact rockauto customer service nobody can help me with the issue. I keep sending them emails but nobody reply. I will just have to buy the part somewhere else now.

I purchased a set of shock absorbers for my Nissan Maxima and when Rock Auto shipped them they were so poorly packaged they slid around and ripped out both the inner and outer boxes to the extent that some of the small parts must have fallen out of the box during shipping (or they were never shipped from the beginning). I called customer service and was told to ship it back in the original packaging at my expense to get a refund. I disputed why I should pay for the shipping since it was not my fault that their warehouse/shipping team did such a poor job in packing. But even after I returned the items with the original boxes taped up and additional packing material to keep it safe for the return trip, they still refused to reimburse my shipping costs.
So beware of using Rock Auto especially if you want to order larger, heavy parts because you may be the one paying for their chinzy packing jobs.

I have received excellent customer service and quality parts every. Time. Delivery of my parts are quick and the one return I had (because of mixed address) was deposited back into my account with no problem. Excellent service overall.
