Advance Auto Parts

My family and I were traveling and as we got to Pennsylvania in the mountains our car started to lose power and would not accelerate. It was skipping and shaking and something was wrong. The check engine light came on so we looked up the nearest parts store and landed at advanced auto parts in Somerset Pennsylvania. I asked if they could run a scanner to see what the issue was. The two gentlemen working gladly ran the scanner and we saw it was a misfire in my cylinder. We looked up the parts to replace and both were in stock. I bought the parts and they asked me if i needed help installing them. The one guy had the needed tools in his personal vehicle and came out and swapped the parts for me..

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Special thanks to Bob for taking his time to help sort out a confusing error in the computer system. Highly recommended!

Where do I start? I overheated on the highway and limped my trailblazer to this Advanced Auto. Both Reed and his counterpart were incredibly friendly and helpful! Reed was familiar with my vehicle and was able to assist in a diagnosis. They had the parts I needed, I fixed the situation with Reeds assistance and continued on to Iowa with no issues. Thanks guys for everything.

While driving through PA on the turnpike my low tire light came on. I pulled over in a travel center and found a piece of metal in my tire. It was leaking enough to be a concern. The next exit was Somerset, I quickly found advanced auto on the main road through town. The gentlemen behind the counter were friendly, knowledgeable and quick to get me the right parts to repair my tire quickly. They let me use a air compressor to air up my tire and had some soapy water to verify the repair. I made the rest of my 7 hour drive without issue.

Asked for a bolt for the brake caliper for my truck, the guy said they don't sell anything like that, I asked where I should go for common parts for my truck, and he preceded to list all other auto parts stores in the area....... I have no idea why this store even exists
