In other words, we usually only go there when all other routes have been exhausted and a least four, five, or six heated discussions have broken out between us. Annoyed at the world, we traipse down to WE&B and find what we need. These guys basically have everything. Small batteries, large batteries, electrical wiring and supplies of all types. And if they don't have it, they'll order it for you. They're also honest about the scope of your job, and whether or not it's something you should be doing on your own. (Not that this has ever happened to me...!) Their hours are a bit limited, so plan accordingly. In other words, don't wait until 6pm on a Sunday to decide you need something from these guys.

I suspected I was going to need a new battery, an expense my fixed income couldn't absorb. I've passed by Pac Power countless times over the decades but since they were close to an appointment I had I stopped in. Ryan checked the battery and found it tested good. He set me up with a pigtail to connect to a trickle charger for a lot less than a new battery that anyplace else would have happily tried to sell me. This job was a little bit of a PITA since the battery was under the rear seat. I'm grateful for businesses that operate like this. Their motto on their sign is more than an empty slogan; "Good people selling batteries...for everything"

On September 13th, 2025, my car wouldn't start, I called AAA and for the next 3 hours waited in the…read morescorching heat for the "AAA guy" to come and look at "why" my car wouldn't start. After about three hours, he eventually arrived. He was really sweet, compassionate and kind, and he tested my battery, startup time, and alternator. He showed me very clearly that it was the alternator and recommended that I go to AutoZone to get a new one. He explained that they sold parts, but I would have to find a mechanic to put the alternator in as they didn't provide these services. The "AAA guy" jump started my car but strongly advised that I should go immediately to AutoZone to get my car repaired. Off I went and what happened next can only be described as one of the most extraordinary experiences I've ever had. I arrived at AutoZone, on Guide Meridian in Bellingham, WA. It is a beautiful store, spacious, spotlessly clean and every spare part, mechanical and non-mechanical parts attractively displayed. What stands out even more than the lovely showroom, are the staff. I was warmly welcomed, and it was already almost 6.00 pm on a Saturday evening. I couldn't believe how kind, caring and genuinely helpful they all were when it was almost time to close the store. I would subsequently find out that their hours are long. AutoZone is open Monday to Saturday from 7.30 am until 9.00 pm each night and on Sunday from 8.00 am to 8.00 pm. I walked straight up to a lady, who looked as if she was in charge. She was. Her name is April, remember that - you're going to need to know her name. This is the best Auto Parts store I've ever been to. I explained my dilemma to April, she listed and I told her that the "AAA guy" had told me that I'd only be able to buy the alternator at their store, BUT would then need a mechanic to take my old alternator out and put the new one in. She nodded her head and concurred that they only sell parts. I confessed to April that I was broke and only had enough money for the alternator. She told me that she had an idea and it would take a few minutes to call a friend of hers, to see if he had any ideas. I gave her some space and privacy to make that call. She came back smiling and said kindly; "I have some good news for you. My friend, Kyle is coming from Burlington (that's quite a drive!) to Bellingham, in about an hour's time, and he'd like to look at your car and see if he can help you". I was in total disbelief; I'd never come across such incredible Customer Service like this before. Kyle did arrive shortly, and he and April together worked on my car, until it was fixed. They also didn't have the exact alternator as I had originally bought my car in Canada. So, April called O' Reilley Auto Parts and fortunately they had the exact part that was needed. No problem for April, she drove me up to O' Reilley's store and I paid them for the alternator. If you're still reading this review, you have to agree with me, this is truly going above and beyond any Customer Service that you've ever heard of, and for me personally, an incredibly high bar in comparison to what I was used to from other service providers. BUT April and Kyle were still not finished with my car and the two of them worked diligently for at least two more hours, until the car ran perfectly and they felt I was safe to drive home. I wish I could give these two wonderful people 10 stars instead of 5. They both gave unstintingly from their hearts, not because they had to, but because they wanted to, AND for that, I'll be forever grateful. In addition, I also saw how well their staff in the store were trained. Nathalie and Juan looked out for the other Customers while April and Kyle were taking care of me. Juan is April's second in command, while Nathalie made sure that every person who came in with a dog, was sure that that dog got a special treat. They truly are like a family. BUT mostly what I experienced that night was what the Gold Standard for Customer Service really looks and feels like. I'm not going anywhere else from now on for any auto parts. I've told my family and friends and now I'm happy to tell strangers. If you ever need Auto Parts go to AutoZone on Meridian in Bellingham, WA. You won't regret it!
