Now, I will preface by saying that I have purchased parts from this company for over 5 years. I've never had an issue. Generally I would give Fast Undercar of Pleasant Hill 5 stars; however, the quality of this company is not the same as prior years. The service I am attempting to receive and I say attempting because at the moment this is an ongoing situation has been a frustrating experience.
I purchased an alternator from this location and the alternator now needs replacing. From the mouth of one of the counter man, I was told the part sold to me was defective. Therefore, I would receive a replacement part through the company warranty. Yaaaayy!!!! I was excited to hear Fast was working to make things right by honoring the warranty. In the meantime, my dead car is sitting in my employer's parking lot waiting to get towed. I was told the part was in stock and could be picked up on Wednesday. Upon arriving Wednesday (I also had someone else doing me a favor to pick up the part), was told the part was NOT in stock and that the warehouse made a mistake. So that's now another day of my car sitting in the parking lot. Sidenote: I can't take my car to the auto shop until I have the car part and I was not paying for multiple tows. Fast told me the alternator would be at the warehouse on Thursday. Again, I have someone else doing me a favor to pick up the part and was told for a second day in a row that the part was NOT there! Now at this point, this is ridiculous...2 days NO PART! Not to mention, another overnight stay in my job's parking lot.
On today, the company has the part...FINALLY! Now I have to travel 30 miles to pick it up and come back to SF to get my car fixed. I'm happy to hear the part has arrived but the delays and incompetence regarding warehouse inventory is inexcusable. read more
