Ethics and consumer protection

1

O'Reilly Auto Parts is one of the most unethical companies I have ever dealt with. I have been repairing my own van for years. I'm a 62 year old single woman living in Elgin Tx. I needed to replace my brakes and rotors. I have made this repair several times because I drive a 1 ton passenger van and the weight of the van causes the brakes to be replaced often. I went into O'Reillys to purchase the parts. I was very specific about the parts needed. First the brake pads were not only over priced they were not the brakes for my van. I returned them and when I ordered the parts again I got a price 20 dollars higher. front brakes for a 3500 van 80+ dollars? I was not happy so they let me have them for the 67.10 I already paid. While replacing the brakes I saw the rotors needed replaced. I went back to the store and ordered the rotors only. They usually run about 50 each. They told me I could no longer order just the rotor and I had to use a rotor with a build in hub, for a mare 84.99 each. Thinking they may actually be knowledgeable I purchased them. Once again it was the incorrect part for my van. I brought my old rotor and the new one to the store. The remedy they came up with was to purchase another set of rotors for 100 each. Needless to say I walked out and went to Auto Zone. I talked to the clerk with in 3 minutes he found the rotor only I wanted to begin with, for 50 dollars each. There is something wrong with a company that will lie to you just to charge you more money, never mind the *** attitude they give you. They made a huge mistake thinking this old lady would put up with this kind of unethical behavior. I don't condone chauvinism, taking advantage of people, men or women, old or young. I don't run my business that way nor will I do business with anyone who puts up selling,lies and greed above ethics. Protect your self, call other companies, price check, do your due diligence if my word is not good enough.
