Review: The company has refused to refund shipping on a order that was canceled and never shipped.Desired Settlement: Refund the shipping cost.
Business
Response:
The customer canceled one of
several parts from his order. Canceling one part did not change the
shipping cost for the remaining items, so no shipping refund is due.
Review: I returned 2 wheel caps for my truck they did not fit. this was 2 months ago they refuse to give me a refund.Desired Settlement: I would like a refund instead of the run around I have gotten for 2 months.

In
the return instructions the customer used to return these products,
we state:
“After
you've shipped the package, please enter the tracking number on our
Order Status page (http://www.rockauto.com/orderstatus/)...If
you are unable to enter the tracking number online, please contact us
with your tracking number for assistance.”
The
customer did not enter return tracking information online, nor did he
contact us about entering return tracking information, and when asked
for it he is unable to provide it. The return location never received
these parts back. Without valid tracking information, we have no idea
where these parts are (still with the customer, lost by the carrier,
sent to the wrong location, etc.). Since we can not refund for
something we never received back, no refund is due.

Please be careful while navigating Rockauto.com website. It will add parts to your cart without your permission! My order went from 1 part to 9 parts without my knowledge and was charged for all 9. Return process is a joke. It all boils down to the fact that they do not care about individual customer's problems. You may have better luck than I did, but pray you don't have an issue. Resolution is a tough road with them.
Review: I purchased a pair of MotorCraft Rotors and pads on Apr. 23rd and installed a few days later. During that time and until recently as of late August to now as it has got worse with each passing day as I feel vibrations in the steering wheel when I apply the brakes at a high rate of speed. I drive 80 miles a day via the hwy. Now I went to a ACE mechanic to check the brakes out and they stated all components are working fine but the rotors are definitely bad. There is no need to machine them when it ill probably come right back. This is when I decided to reach out to RockAuto. I have been given the textbook answer as to why my warranty request does not qualify, despite the information I have provided them. All I am asking for since they have warranty for the parts they sell is to provide me a new set for the money I spent. There is nothing on there site that would prevent them from sending me new rotors. I have been in contact with RockAuto about this issue and all I received back were technical responses which I would agree with if they fit my situation. I would not be writing to you if this were the case. Just so you, I also ordered my back brakes from them as well even during this process thinking they would not have an issue with sending me replacements.Desired Settlement: To have the company honor their warranty instead of not satisfying a valued customer.

This
customer purchased rotors in April. In September, he reported that
“Since I put these roto[r]s on back in April, as of this
month they have become warp[ed].”
Our Warranties
page explains that like other retailers of branded products, RockAuto
does not offer any product warranty of our own--we honor the warranty
provided by the manufacturer of the product. We explained that while
Motorcraft offers a 24 month, 24,000 mile warranty on their products,
that warranty covers defects in workmanship or material but not
“warping.” We went on to explain that the problem he described
(“warping”), otherwise known as disc thickness variation (DTV),
is caused by other problems in the system such as excessive runout
after installation, overheating, or faulty calipers, but it is not
caused by defects in the rotors themselves (and is thus not covered
under the manufacturer's warranty). DTV can be remedied by having the
rotors machined by a shop or replaced entirely. We did recommend
inspecting the calipers first to ensure they were not the cause of
the issue, and we're glad to hear the customer found the calipers
were not the problem. Since the manufacturer's warranty does not
cover the problem the customer is describing, no warranty replacement
is available.

I already informed the business there was nothing wrong with my brake components, yet there claim is still my brake components are the problem. So they need to provide me a better response is ce they cannot really tell me if these rotors are defective.,
I have found RockAuto an excellent company to do business with.....Among other things, their delivery service is excellent also....I highly recommend them for all your auto parts needs
Best prices I found online. Easy ordering process.
AFTER 40 YEARS IN THE AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS,ROCK AUTO IS THE BEST TO DEAL WITH,THEY ALWAYS HANDLE ANY PROBLEMS AND TAKE CARE VERY QUICKLY.
Having used Rockauto several time they have never failed to impress me.
Good prices, great service.
great price and fast shipping plus I can get parts here that I can't get locally.
First order came quickly and the price was great! Core refund handled swiftly! Thanks for such professional service! Look forward to ordering again and again. Will tell everyone interested in purchasing auto parts about "Rock Auto"!
My experience with rockauto has always been a satisfactory one,I have nothing but praise for this company.
Customer service is the worst I have ever dealt with in 30 years as a mechanic. 2 different labeled quick struts were sent to me and after contacting Mark in customer service early on a Friday and was told it would be taken care of the same day. I call back by 4 pm and he had left for the day. Then was told by Jen, I would have to wait til Monday to take care of my problem. Then told on Monday to take pictures again and email them in to Rock auto and they would contact the manufacturer. Well, that took several days.....meanwhile my mother doesn't have anything to drive for a week. It was finally rectified, but took way too long. Low prices are good but that should go hand in hand with customer service. I will never use Rock auto unless I have weeks to do a project. Not for time sensitive repairs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With the price of auto parts doubling in the auto parts stores its nice to be able to buy good reliable parts for my cars and truck at a reasonable price. And know that they are going to fit the first time..Thanks rockauto
Review: I purchased an item through the website www.rockauto.com in which the item did not fit. I returned the item at my cost and ask for a full refund. I was refused. I disputed a partial charge amount for shipping through my credit card company in which I stated my claim. The credit card company agreed that I was not in the wrong. The business was charged back. I presumed the issue was resolved at this point until I tried to make another purchase. The business attempted to charge my card, but did not finalize the process. I received an email and note on my account to call. After speaking with a representative, they stated I owe them a balance of roughly twenty dollars. I do not feel that I owe the business any money.Desired Settlement: I believe my account should not incur a balance due to any chargebacks that have occurred. I should not have to owe the business any money.

Mr. [redacted] bought brake rotors, and later returned them. The warehouse that received the return found the rotors been installed, and finish of these rotors was chipped off. We mention in our return policy that we can't accept returns of parts that have been installed, and we let him know that we wouldn't be able to refund. He charged us back - which left us with rotors which we cannot resell, and without payment from him. If he would like do business with us again, we're happy to sell him more parts. But we think it is reasonable to first ask him to repay the amount that we lost due to his actions the last time we did business with him.

Quality Parts with Ultra Fast Shipping ! I would recommend them to anyone in need of their services.
I like the prices. compared to Auto Zone, Advance Auto, and NAPA it beats them all and it good quality parts.
I did have a problem with shipping, they use a third party to ship some parts causing a delay but they made up for it by having the other party ship it direct to me.
Rock Auto has absolutely terrible service. They sent a confirmation email that 2 items had shipped. Only one item shipped, costing me a second appointment fee with a trimmer. It was a several hour process for them to even admit that one part shipped, and more than one call was required to find this status. Finally, they admitted the part would not be available until next week. I'm stuck paying the second appointment fee regardless at this point. They never even offered an apology. They are definitely the bottom feeders of the parts industry. Here's a hint: Pay a little more and buy from a company with experience in CUSTOMER SERVICE!
We received our order in a timely manner and when we had to return a part because we didnt need it was an easy return.
I've been a Rockauto customer for years. They're pricing and service can't be beat.
