"Big Mike and staff are helpful and very professional"

"Update: 10/24/21.....Another great job by "Tyler", he is very nice and very smart. He installed my new wiper blades fast. He has waited on me many times and he is Top Notch. He would make a very good manager. Thanks again.......Greg. Just got home from The mgr. putting a battery in my car. I think he said his name was Larry. He did a great job and also said I needed the battery terminal protectors so it would not foul up. Good Idea. Mike also helped me when I went in. I have known him for many years. Love this place and get my parts and detailing supplies here. Thanks. Update 10/08/22.....My battery on my wife's 99 Honda van went dead. I got it started and took it in, Tyler who helped me on my Toyota a few years ago was in and he Tyler helped me again. He is TOP Notch and very nice. He gave me a few choices and I took the Diehard Battery. He was quick to put it in, and He Thanked me for choosing this store. I said no problem, I love this store and Mike the Mgr. is also very nice. Go ahead you made My Day! Update: 12/05/23....Had a brake light go out, and I came in and..William...showed me how to put it in. He was really nice and helpful. Plus, I learned how to do it for next. time. As you can tell by my reviews, I love this place!"

"Was open as advertised. "Big Mike" was extremely helpful and informative. Great service! Thank you."

"I was riding my motorcycle from Baltimore to Roanoke, and passed by on the Blue Ridge Parkway. While up in the mountains, my oil plug fell out, and all my oil leaked out. This was 8:30 at night, and the only place open on a Saturday night was this Advance Auto. I explained the situation to Robbie, an employee there, and he helped me look for the right oil plug for my bike. They did not have one, and because it was so late, I could not check any other store. Robbie decided to scour the store to find anything that was threaded the same as the plug I needed. He eventually found an air-conditioner hose coupler that had the right threads. It worked like a charm, I made it all the way to Roanoke and got a real plug the next morning. If not for Robbie and his quick thinking, my bike would have had to spend the night unattended up in the mountains, and I would have missed my hotel reservations. That man is an invaluable asset to your store, and I had to share my praises."

"Last night I was helping a friend. After trying to jumpstart the car and being unsuccessful, it was decided that we should have the battery checked. We went to Advance and they tested the battery and said it was fine. They suggested it might be a fuel pump. We went back, the friend's father insisted it was the battery. Back to Advance, they strongly advised against us buying a 250.00 item that we didn't need and would be non returnable. They told us what to do to figure out if it was the fuel pump. It turned out that was the issue! Thank you for being kind, courteous, and steering us correctly!"
