Racism
Just thought I'd put this out here. I've overheard upper managment discussing stores in less than desirable neighborhoods (Livingston, 5th Avenue) That operate at a loss most weeks due to shrink.
"We like to think of these as bait stores. We keep them open with substandard goods and help, so the n**gers don't come to our nicer stores and make trouble."
Also, I was told when employed here: If they are black and walk onto the lot they are stealing. (and while this was accurate we had just as many white thieves)
Also: "If they don't speak english and give you a hard time, sell 'em a part. Any part. Just get them out of here and keep the reciept, don't register a warranty and confiscate what they bring back. That oughta teach them."
This is what we were told during a meeting on provindin WOW customer service.

Product Charges and Racism
I am very familiar with Autozones code of conduct and sales. I have used them for most of parts being they about the only automotive store in town. I was told by numerous people that worked for autozone that they scan items (WITTDJR)without asking you and ring them up, adding to your total amount. motto is dont ask just scan.
I like to try to save money but how does one go about doing that when these large corporation are feeding off the little people...Also I called the store one day and the store manager answered and asked what I needed.I told her
what I was looking for and she began to do a computer search for my part. She then stated that they carried the part but it was made in Mexico and everything from Mexico is shit.Never in my life have I been so disgusted with a company, from now on I will drive the extra miles and go somewhere that dosent add extra expenses and arent racist pigs... I am from Mexico btw

Abusive company policies
I had the unfortunate experience of being an Autozone employee for 18 months. Everything I was told when hired was basically a lie, for example I was told that I would get a review after 90 days and one at one year. This was confirmed by the district manager who was sitting in on my interview. After 90 days I wondered where my review was, and finally asked my asst. manager to call the district mgr. as to when I would have this 90 day review. The dm's exact words to my asst. mgr. was "What! Is he (expletive) dreaming?" After 1 year with the company, I still had not received a review. When I inquired about this one, I was told that Autozone only does one review a year company wide, and this occurs at the end of the fiscal year. Since I was hired in June, this meant that since the fiscal year ended at the end of September, my one year review was actually a 15 month review. Or so I thought. When October started, a asked again about my review. I was now told that they were in the process of being done at that time. Midway thru October I was told they were done, but we couldn't see them yet. After pestering management daily, on Oct. 31 I said can we finally see our reviews. I'm afraid not, said my manager, we have already sent them to corporate. Now, I am no neophyte to business practices, and I could almost swear that reviews normally are used as a tool to inform an employee of his strong and weak points, and are used to determine the amount of raise given. And the employee must sign them, with a copy going into his record. Not at Autozone. We were just told that we got the maximum raise allowed, and that was that. The raise was to be 3% (after almost 16 months). When I saw my check, however, the raise computed to 2 1/2%, which was a phenomenal 27 cents an hour more. Since I seemed to be a permanent parttime employee (with 25 years selling auto parts experience) this amounted to about $2.50 a week. The scariest part about Autozone is they do not care about experience, just if you will do what they tell you, with no regard for any input from you as to how the customers feel. My sentence at Autozone ended shortly after this took place, since there is no sick day policy at the company. Absences and tardiness is not tolerated. So when that one employee comes in with a disease that is highly contagious, everyone gets to share the experience. Even with a doctors note (which they ask for) you still get your penalty points, and like me, when you accumulate enough you are terminated immediately. Well, they let me come into work, a 24 mile round trip to fire me. I felt so special.

Honoring Warranty
I had bought an Engine from Autozone of Ocean Springs Ms. and they told me it comes with a 75, 000 mile warranty. When that engine started giving me problems, they said that it wasn't there problem or it has nothing to do with there part of the engine. Now I stuck with a 1, 000 dollar repair bill.

Beware
AutoZone, normally puts OIL & Filter on Sale, and I buy much oil & filter to change them in our FOUR Cars, I normally return my USED oil at the Aberdeen, MD store on HWY 40. The complaint is, the store does not take the waste oil, excuse is, the barrel is full, me and my ARMY do a lot of business with AUTO ZONE and have to keep the oil a long time before returning it, and still the waste oil Barrels are full at Auto Zone, when ever you ask an Auto Zone Clerk to return the waste oil. AutoZone should do a better job of getting the Waste Oil Barrels emptied.

3RD TIME IGNORED CUSTOMER
The third time I came in to have my the diagnostic tool run on my car, they completely ignored me again in the line of customers waiting.
Having been blown off the first time, while 1 person took care of customers and 2 others flitted around, I left after 30 plus minutes.
The second time the guy just completely cut me from the line, and when I said something pulled this whole attitude with me.
The third time it was the actual acting manager who cut me from the line while the other employee just stood there and let him.
The sad part is when I confronted him with it he was like, oh, yeah. That guy doesn't really work at this store. Then I had to actually ask him if he was even sorry about my treatment.
Must not be too much but then again, I guess the 1000 plus a year I spend will go somewhere else.
I would not expect to be treated well at this location.

Incompetence
I have a 2003 Nissan Altima. The engine quit running about a month ago. I finally brought it to the dealer for dianostics. It was determined that the Mass air Flow Sensor(MAFS) was bad. The dealer gave me the option to find a cheaper part to install(dealer part price:$561.68). I found the MAFS at Autozone in Watson La. for $268.00. I was told they didn't have it on the shelf but had one in their whse. I asked if they could have it delivered to the Baton Rouge branch on Florida Blvd. He told me yes and it should be there in two hours and he would call me upon arrival. I paid for the part in full and left. At that point I quit looking for the part assuming all was well. After about three hours I still hadn't been contacted by anyone from Autozone. So at that point I went to the Florida branch looking for the part assuming they "forgot" to call. When I went in to explain the situation, the saleperson was very rude in explaining to me what happened and was very quick to tell me I could get my money back. It appeared all she was worried about was getting a date with a group of thugs that were hitting on her. She told me the part would be ordered from a vendor and would not arrive until noon the next day. She explained to me that when the part was picked up at the whse, they opened the box and noticed the part had been used. Is this normal to have a part in the whse opened and looked at to make sure it hadn't been used? I found this to be very odd and felt like I had been lied to from the begining. All they wanted was the money and I would be at their mercy until it was delivered. The dealer closed at 5pm and the car would have to stay there and inccur more charges thanks to Autozone. The next day I called the Florida branch to see if the part arrived, and I quote " Yea, it be here, come get it" and hung up. So I arrive at the store and asked about the part.The manager asked me if I had the old part with me for the core. I told him no that I would take the new part(keep in mind, I payed for in full) install it on my car and bring the old one back for the 45 dollar core charge. He then asked me if I had anything of value on me that I could leave with him to ensure I would come back. I was confused and told him I payed for that part...it's mine and showed him the reciept. He insisted that I leave him something of value. Beings that I accidently left my 5olb gold brick at home that I normally carry around for collateral reasons, I asked him if my 15$ driver's license would do? He told me yes and put it in the cash register. Luckly I was riding with someone or else I would not have gotten my part. I guess I could have offered him my Nike flip-flops at that point and negotiated with other articles of clothing I had on. I am still confused about getting a part I payed for already. I go to the dealership and install the part and head back to Autozone. I went in with the old part and the manager removes it from the box and looks at me and says this: " This part looks like its five years old! " I told him you are exactly correct!! That is the core!!! He then tries to charge me another 300 bucks. He was completely and totally confused. He then asked another employee to open the register and return my driver's license. Once again she was too busy trying to get a date with the same group of loitering thugs that she did not do so, and I ended up leaving without my license and had to turn around and go back. I will take partial blame on that one, but I still do not know why I had to leave it there in the first place.With all of this said, I will NEVER go back to Autozone...EVER nor will my family members and anyone I come in contact with. I have never seen anything like this when it comes to serving the public. It was like I was bothering them. They took a one day job for me, and turned it into a two day job. I highly suggest that these employees are taught manners, and the value of telling the truth. I am overall very disappointed with the experience I had with your company. Customers use AutoZone to get away from dealing with over priced auto repair shops, but after dealing with your rude, inexperienced, and unhelpful staff, that will force me to use other after market retailers in the future.
