In October 2016, I replaced the fuel pump assembly on my 1996 Chevy 4.3 S-10. In January 2019, the fuel gauge became erratic. I had no receipt or paperwork but called Customer Service anyway. Using my phone number, name and address, the Customer Service Representative found my original order and within three minutes replacement module scheduled for shipment. The CSR's knowledge, skills and attitude were both courteous and professional Additionally, she reminded me that I must return the original part, within 60 days, to ensure the continuation of the warranty. The complete call lasted less than five minutes. I highly recommend 1A Auto.
Ordered brake parts from their web site, which had specific instructions using the VIN to identify the correct parts. They did not fit. Called customer service and their response was "You should have called us first." They want as much as the order costs for a return. It's a ridiculous response because the order was made according to their instructions and then the rep states that just calling them would have cleared things up. This is incorrect, unless they were to come to my home and measure the part. Their response is completely self-serving and they obviously do not care for their customers or further orders from individual customers. Avoid these scammers is my advice. They save you nothing and could cost you much. Bad bargain.
I have bought two replacement items and items always come way ahead of estimated delivery date! Love it!
I was able to have all most everything done for Less thanks to 1A Auto, even though there was 2 missing parts they replaced them as soon as I contacted them.

I ordered a blower motor resistor on Wednesday night at 7:30 pm and chose the 2 day shipping, as I needed the part by Saturday. 1A Auto uses UPS for their deliveries; and although Saturday was Veteran's Day, UPS delivers on this holiday. I tracked the order and the part arrived in the UPS store near me on Friday Nov. 10, so I was sure I would get it on time, but I did not receive the part. I checked my email and saw an email from UPS saying that the item is scheduled for delivery on Monday, Nov. 13, five days after I placed my order. The cost of the 2 day delivery was $13.73, which I may as well have flushed down the toilet because this was a wasted charge. I called customer service and was told that 1A Auto has a contract with UPS and that they are contracted to deliver parts on week days only. The customer service rep stated that there is a disclaimer about 2 and next day shipping on their website stating this; and there is. However, I have never come across this issue with any other online merchant in all my years of online shopping. When I see two day shipping, that is what it means to me, and most likely to everyone else who chooses this option; so naturally, one would expect their purchased items to be at their location in 2 days period, not 2 business days. In my opinion, this is a method to milk extra money out of the consumer. I told the rep that I was not happy about having paid for 2 day and receiving my item 5 days later and that I would not be purchasing another item from 1A Auto. She told that that was my option. This shows how little they value their customers. Customer service is everything, so I can see why they are receiving such bad reviews. BUYER BEWARE, as the saying goes. I will be posting another review once I get the part I ordered noting its condition and quality.
One new shock broke a seal, called and got a replacement under warranty took about a week. Thank you for your great service.

David thank you so much for your kind words. As we like to say at 1A Auto, "not all parts are created equal." We look forward to assisting you with your next purchase.
It was easy to look for the parts. I could install by myself with the video clip. The parts are newer than my car's model. They work fine.
Glad to hear it Franklin! And kudos to you for replacing the part yourself and foregoing the expensive mechanic shops! We look forward to assisting you with your next purchase!

My car now looks in good shape with the new headlight installed. It gives my car a fresh outlook, great quality product.
Thanks, Alfred! It's amazing what a new set of headlights can do for the appearance of a vehicle. We appreciate the 5 stars!
Shipped me wrong parts and won't exchange or return will never get parts from them again. Cant believe people actually get parts from them...
Recently made an order from 1A Auto for an O2 sensor weighing approximately 0.2 lbs. The package took 12 days to arrive from Kansas to Illinois.
I am so sorry to hear about this Dana; this is never the type of customer service experience that we strive for. Please message me your name and PO # associated with your order so that I can take a look.

I ordered shocks that did not meet expectations. I let 1A Auto know the issue and they immediately refunded the cost.
Very cheap Chinese parts customer service is full of lies recommend not to buy any parts for any vehicle from them
Price & installation video guidance were outstanding! Part fit and condition were faultless and everything seems to be working correctly...
