I had to use the bathroom which I clearly know there is 1 available to the public. Person @ counter was extremely rude & told me there is no public bathroom. My young niece had to go as well. I wouldn't spend a dime in this place!

**Review Title: Disappointing Experience with Battery Purchase** I recently visited Advance Auto Parts to have my car battery checked. After speaking with the staff at the front desk, I was informed that my battery was bad and needed to be replaced. Trusting their assessment, I purchased a new battery. However, when I took the old battery to my mechanic, he confirmed that it was actually fine and that the issue was with the starter.

Purchased an oil pressure sending unit and a socket to go with it for pickup. When I checked the socket's fitment on the new part and discovered it didn't fit, I was denied the return with the socket back in the original packaging as the manager said the socket was considered an "electrical component".

I bought wiper blades from a competitor and in putting them on, I thought the connection was wrong. First time at this store and Kevin B. was very helpful and explained how to install them and offered to install them. I said I'm good but the other gentleman that worked there also offered to help me after he was helping another customer in the parking lot. I installed the blades and I appreciated the employees help. I will definitely continue to go to this store and recommend to others.
