Of course it broke during the coldest parts of our trips, but fortunately, we found Travis at Advance Diesel Service. This guy is by far the best customer service rep for his industry I've ever met! Though he didn't have the very specific part that we needed, he helped us "MacGyver" together a few pieces so that our heater was finally working again! He refused to charge us anything, and even allowed us to hang out in his parking lot all day while we tried a few different options until we found one that worked! Bonus points to Travis because he also has the most adorable gray pup that plays with you while your husband and Travis figure out how to fix the heater. But seriously -- this guy was top notch, so friendly, and we can't recommend him enough!

They really take the time to lay it all out and let you know what needs to be done now and what can wait. Their shop rate is less than most in town and they do great work.

Overall this is a great shop with a great philosophy.

I want to give a huge shout-out to Bonnie at Big O Auto Repair…read more She took the time to clearly explain how these warranties actually work--something I wish had been done when I purchased my truck from Dodge Chrysler Jeep on 5th Avenue. Unfortunately, the warranty I was sold there can only be used through their service department, and dealing with them has been an absolute nightmare for even minor repairs. Bonnie stepped in and walked me through everything with patience and professionalism. Because of her, I'm now in the process of canceling that warranty and switching to one that allows me to use Big O exclusively. That peace of mind means everything to me. I've trusted shops like Big O Auto Repair before--my last truck lasted 20 years because I had honest, reliable mechanics who did the job right the first time, never cut corners, and stood behind their work. That kind of trust is hard to find. The team at Big O is exactly that--honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to taking care of both you and your vehicle. I have full confidence that with their help, my current truck will go just as far. If you're looking for a place you can trust with your vehicle, this is it.

I came in looking for some spark plugs and ignition coils that I had called ahead about a few days prior. After waiting for someone to come out and greet me for around 15 minutes, I was told by a snarky read headed young dude at the counter that "nothing is kept put aside after a day or two" and they didn't have all the parts I needed. This place just sucks all around. Go to the Napa on Fairbanks instead. They're super cool over there and will actually have the stuff you need. Oh! And when I went to pay for the parts they actually did have for me, I asked about a military discount because I'm active duty, and was angrily asked for my ID, which is fine but almost never happens anywhere else.

The saving grace for this two star review is based on one person, his name is Lee…read more Stacey actually was the first one to pick up. From the minute he picked up the phone I could tell this would not go down very well. Instead of addressing the customer first, the first thing I heard was him yelling about how the system went down. And how he wasn't printing anything because his computer does not print. That was certainly not expected. Being that I did some research on my product, I already had looked up the specs, knew the pricing, and new the part number. The only thing I had asked was if the part was on hand in their shop or if any of the other Anchorage Napa's had the part. He proclaimed it was hard to do with their systems being down that he will put me on hold to ask. Well he did keep me on hold. A few minutes later Lee enthusiastically picked up asking if I was being taken care of. I told him that Stacey was asking someone about a part and Lee quickly took charge. He also noted that the system was down, but said he could still check in another way so he then placed me hold. Just a few seconds later, Stacey came on again and said it would take 20 minutes because he couldn't do anything with the system being down. I said that was fine, Lee was also looking. All Stacey said was okay, and hung up on me. Really though? There is never a reason to be unhelpful, inattentive or rude to a customer. Especially one who (I think) is pretty pleasant and understanding. Thankfully, Lee still had me on hold. He let me know that the 5th Avenue location did not have the part on hand, however Dowling and Spenard did! And while my part was only requested my manufacturer, that they did have a Napa brand, with a 3 year warranty. He also let me know that there was a "bucket sale" going on. You buy a bucket for $2.99 and anything you can put in the bucket ends up being 20% off. Doing the math, bucket included, I end up saving an extra $30ish. Hell I'll search for anyway really to make a sale. Lee went above and beyond - between being super curious on the phone, searching for my part, finding a similar yet still compatible part for my needs, and also saving me money! I really could not thank him enough for being so helpful, and certainly let him know how much Stacey sucked. He joked that he hears that a lot. That's truly unfortunate.If I were to base my experience solely on Lee's poor service over the phone and Lee did not pick up, I would certainly take my business elsewhere. Lee, if I could I would give you all the stars on this review. But in general, I've certainly experienced better treatment at Auto Zone, O'Rielly's and half the time, at Walmart.
