Asked at this location to try a reset with OBD scanner, they told me it couldn't be done that way. They told me to go to dealer. I went to O'Reilly's instead, and they said let's give it a try. They reset it in 2 minutes with OBD scanner. Difference in attitude and support was memorable.

I went to Advance Auto Parts in Lightfoot to get battery checked on 18 Jan as my battery wasn't…read moreholding a charge. A short baldish 30 something year old put the tester on the battery and said my alternator was bad (car only has 53000 miles). Since car wouldn't start I asked for a jump as I had my own jumper cables. He said no "sorry your day isn't going well." Got a friend to bring their car there and quickly jumped started. Took car to local dealer who tested the battery and it wasn't holding a charge ( only 80) and the alternator was fine pushing 13.7 volts. Had the dealer replace the battery. This Advance Auto Part employee had no idea what he was doing and the other two there didn't care. He also said clicking sound when turning the ignition was because of the alternator which is complete BS As that sound is the starter. I will never use this place again and will tell everyone I know about this shoddy business.

Laura is a ROCK STAR!! My boujee car is not used to the cold and also has the original battery…read morewhich was coming up on its 6th year...so, new year - new battery and my car is happy again! Not only was I so impressed that a fellow female was going to install my battery (girls rule!)...she also let me "help." And by "help" I mean she patiently listened to me telling her all about the video I watched about how to install the battery as I hovered over her asking a bunch of questions. I realized this is probably why my husband prefers I not always "help"... Laura was very kind, entertaining my curiosity and accepting my attempt to try and project manage the effort. I can't help it...I'm a Project Manager in real life and it spills over at inopportune times. Laura was a trooper though and did all of this in the freezing cold, making it look easy! Not only will I be an O'Reilly customer for life...I highly recommend the Merrimac Trl location in Williamsburg! Ask for Laura...you won't be disappointed!

The store is always in an an organized order and items are identified with visible signs. If you have trouble, the staff are there to assist. I have always be satisfied with their products and servics. They also honor our military and Veterans with a discount. I highly recommend O'Rileys to all.

It's honestly rare these days to find a repair shop you can fully trust, but this place is the real…read moredeal. They've been in business for years, and it shows--not just in their experience, but in how they treat people. I brought my car in expecting a major repair, and instead of upselling me, they walked me through what actually needed to be done and what didn't. That kind of honesty is hard to come by. They took the time to explain everything clearly, never pressured me, and made sure I understood my options. In a time where it feels like everything is about squeezing out more money, this shop stands out for doing the opposite--being fair, transparent, and genuinely looking out for their customers. If you want a mechanic you can trust long-term, not just for one visit, this is the place. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else.

I also needed dash light bulbs, which he said he had in stock. I called after five and sure enough he said the cable was there.

Had a dead battery, had it jump-started, and got it to Advance Auto Parts for a replacement. However, they let me know they couldn't replace the battery because (after checking their system) they couldn't reset the computer after it was done. Fair enough! I tried to figure out how to get my now again un-startable car over to Autohaus (great experience there, too!) myself. An Advance Auto Parts staff member came out while I was trying to figure out the best way to get it started and where it needed to go next, and asked me how it was going. When I let him know I was still having trouble, he offered to jump the car himself. He did, spent 10 minutes on that when he didn't have to, and that was what I needed to get on with my day. I didn't even buy anything from them, this time in. Truly great service. After this experience, I'm not shopping anywhere else but the Merrimac Trail Advance Auto Parts for my car. Sanity in car problem help = loyalty. 5 stars, easily, for this place.
