★★★★★ 5.0 JoAnna Barella · Feb 2026

I called desperate for a battery. I was finally able to get AAA to give me a jump and I dashed over. They were extremely friendly and helpful. They put in my battery and made sure it had a good connection. Great service and kind people! Fast to boot!

★★★★★ 5.0 A Ferguson · Feb 2026

5-star service! A huge thank you to Jillian for helping me out with a new battery today. She was knowledgeable, efficient, and made the whole installation process seamless. If you need help with your car, ask for her!

★★★★★ 5.0 Mimi Neal Eger · Nov 2025

Jillian was an absolute pleasure to work with, she went above and beyond to help me in my time of need and had some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. She is an incredible employee and is a bright shining star in that office! Thank you, Jillian For helping me out in my time of need!

Do not buy batteries here; they will screw you out of the deposit. Bought a car battery and tried to return the old one to get the core charge back. They gave me some nonsense about not being able to process the transaction and refused to do it.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Özgür YILDIZ · Oct 2025

I have the receipt — this was a clear sale of a non-working product. I paid $140 for a bulb they confirmed as the correct fit for my car. The bulb they gave me did not work at all. I have the receipt as proof of purchase. When I returned to the shop with the non-working item and the receipt, the staff refused to refund, replace, or properly test the product, and showed no willingness to take responsibility. This is unacceptable, unprofessional, and deceptive. Customers deserve honest products and basic accountability — I will be seeking a chargeback and filing a formal complaint if this isn’t resolved. Do not buy from this place unless they demonstrate the product works in front of you.
