Dave had me send him some pictures of the electrical panel and location I wanted charging station installed to start a quote. After reviewing he felt it was best to come out to verify the scope of the job. Contacted him on a Wednesday and he came out the next morning. We reviewed what I was trying to do and he made recommendations. In the end he recommended installing dedicated 240 plug, which was the least expensive option. Installed on Monday. EV is now on a level 2 charge wife is super happy going from 12 hours to 3 hours for a full charge. Communications is great and timely showing up for appointments.

I needed a lot of tools and I always came here or Home Depot after when harbor freights didn't have what I needed. 90% of my car engine work was done with harbor frieght tools they are cheap and reliable.

On August 22, 2026, my wife made a purchase at the Harbor Freight location in El Cajon. Assistant…read moreManager Brian checked her out using my Harbor Freight credit card. Brian told her the charge did not go through. My wife showed him the Harbor Freight credit card app, which clearly showed that the charge had gone through. I then called Synchrony Bank, the company that issues the Harbor Freight credit card, while she was still at the store. The Synchrony representative confirmed directly to Brian that the charge had gone through and cleared. Despite both the app and Harbor Freight's own credit card company confirming the charge, Brian would not allow my wife to leave with the merchandise. He insisted the system showed otherwise and said he needed to charge my card again. I was obviously concerned about being charged twice. Brian assured me that the second charge would not go through and specifically told me that if there were any problems, I should contact him and he would take care of it personally. Well, the second charge went through. I was charged twice. I called the El Cajon store today to get this resolved. Brian wasn't available, so I spoke with Kevin, who identified himself as the Store Manager. Instead of honoring what his Assistant Manager had promised or trying to correct a duplicate charge created at his store, Kevin's response was essentially that there was nothing he could do and I needed to deal with my credit card company. That's unacceptable. Now, because of what Harbor Freight employees themselves described as a glitch in their system, I have to file a credit card dispute, provide documentation, do all the legwork, and potentially wait up to 60 days for the dispute process--all because their store charged my card twice after I specifically warned them that the first charge had already gone through. What makes this even more frustrating is that this is the second time I've had this happen at Harbor Freight. When it happened at the Lemon Grove location, they actually stepped up and took care of the problem. The El Cajon location, however, apparently thinks a customer should simply deal with the consequences of their system malfunction. Mistakes and computer glitches happen. What determines good customer service is how you handle the mistake afterward. Brian at least assured me he would personally handle it if the second charge posted. Kevin's response today was basically, deal with your credit card company. Harbor Freight charged my card twice. I shouldn't have to spend my time filing disputes and fighting to recover money that should never have been charged twice in the first place. Very disappointing customer service from the El Cajon location.
