I came here first weekend of April to get a new battery. As soon as I walked in I was promptly greeted and assisted with finding the correct battery for my car. Upon purchasing they even offer free install and core with purchases. I waited a few minutes while another team member was assisting another customer outside. Once they were done we walked outside the team member completed the install and I was on my way. One of the quickest processes I ever had with my care and now it purrs like it is supposed to. read more

I was really glad when this store opened in town, less than ten miles from my house, about a year ago. Previously I had to drive to Fredericksburg, more than 18 miles, to get to the nearest Advance location. The managers at this store are very good, and have a lot of automotive and parts knowledge. There does seem to be some turnover among the staff, but usually I can deal with String Stringfellow or another store manager. I have had very few problems there, and those have been minor. I dropped off a car battery there to be tested/charged recently, and when I returned it turned out the battery had been lost. But their records showed my battery had tested out as defective on their machine, and was still under warranty, so they gave me a brand new battery, and I was on my way! This store handles internet orders very well and very promptly. It is super convenient to be able to order my parts on their website, and then pick them up at the store. Store-pickup of internet orders is a breeze; which is not the case with some other retailers who say they have in-store pickup of web orders. Advance also regularly runs specials/promos on their website, which enable me to get at least a 15% discount with almost every internet order I place with them. The Bealeton Advance Auto Parts store is definitely one of the better auto parts stores I deal with as A DIY mechanic; and is the first place I check when I need something for one of my cars and trucks. read more

I had Mr. G.G Hart help me figure out why my engine light on, and I was absolutely impressed with his knowledge and customer service!! He found the easy solution to my problem, and even went out of the way to tell me what the next thing to do would be if my engine light came back on. As a woman, I've found garages always try to take advantage of me, being as unfamiliar as I am with car problems. Mr. Hart made sure to educate me to prevent this from possibly happening. Give this man a raise. read more

I've been having problems with a terrible smell in my new, used car & everything I did to get rid of smell did not work. I went by Advance Auto in Bealeton & started talking to Eric, (he's the manager in the Warrenton store but was working in Bealeton for the day) & right away Eric suggested replacing the Cabin air filter. I had NEVER heard of this before & had no idea where it was, etc. After purchasing the filter Eric took my old one out & sure enough there was a mouse nest crammed in by the filter along with a couple dead mice. Because the mess was so big, I had to go home & vacuum it out before putting new filter in. If it wasn't for Eric we would still be driving around smelling that foul odor. Two other managers that also went above & beyond & helped me with some other car issues are Mike & Dave. They are very knowledgeable, helpful & professional. I definitely would recommend this location to anyone needing parts! read more

I would give four stars, but the manager, Trish, is very rude. I've been there twice and both times she yells at the employees like they're idiots. The employees get visibly angry, for good reason. One employee, Justin, is just simply wonderful. Always extraordinarily helpful. read more
