I would give zero stars if I could. Order took over 2 months to arrive, item packaging was damaged, item was of poor quality. Was told by customer service I would only be receiving nearly half of what I paid for the item when discussing return. I will never purchase anything from Auto Anything ever again.
I bough a hood protector that was so small that didn't make any sense to install. It was totally different from the picture on the web site. The money they charge for return is ridiculous. Don't waste your time and money in this web site, you won't get what you need.
Recently purchased the Retraxs bed cover for my truck. Upon opening the item I noticed it was damaged. Two weeks and counting still not a response if they are going to accept my return. I am in the middle of the blame game and I am paying the price for it. Will never purchase a product from Auto Anything again. Customer service is continuing to give the run around and I starting to believe that they are trying to let the 30 day return policy run so I am stuck with a damaged product.
I ordered a tonneau cover, and was told it was in stock and ready to ship. Two weeks after I had ordered, and paid for the cover, I got an email saying it would be another 6 weeks before it was shipped. The original delivery date was October 2, when I got the email, the new shipping date was December 17, or later.
Don't waste your time, or money with liars. Auto anything will tell you anything, just to get the sale.
Hours on hold no satisfaction passed through 3 people in the last week to get no where save sanity and your money
Hi Rod,
I am so sorry to hear you've had so much trouble getting assistance from us! We try to offer high-quality customer service, and I am disappointed to hear this was not your experience. If there is anything we can do to turn this situation around for you, please contact us at onlinesupport@ autoanything.com.
They "lost the item" and wouldn't refund (at least yet). It has been a couple of weeks and they want me to file claim through their own logistics provider rather than do it themselves. So, I paid, never got the item and still don't have refund. Oh and don't even try using the email support as they have not responded to any of my four emails. I had to call which takes forever to get a human being on phone and then they don't have any idea what they are doing.
Hey Ben!
I am so sorry to hear that your order was lost in transit and that you have not yet been refunded. We ask customers to fill out our claim form as this ensures the correct information is submitted right away, expediting the refund process, but we are always happy to file the claim on your behalf if you'd prefer that! Additionally, our email response time has gone back down to 1-2 business days now that we've hired a ton of new team members, so we can help you nearly right away if you'd reach out! Please contact us at [email protected] so that we can turn this situation around for you.
Ordered seat covers, card was charged and received a shipping date. Weeks later got a new shipping date for a month later so I did a live chat and cancelled my order. Got an email on the cancellation saying they were confirming with the warehouse the item hadn't shipped. According to to the guy during my live chat my seat covers were made to order. They are sent from the manufacturer in Anaheim. 8 1/2 hours later an email comes saying my covers have shipped. Really? A shipping label was created in San Diego and as of now 30+ hours later FedEx still doesn't have the package. The stuffs supposed to arrive here tomorrow and they're telling me I can send it back for a refund. After seeing other reviews that looks like another headache. I don't expect it to arrive tomorrow anyway but look forward to another run around. Do not deal with this company. I took pics of the live chat conversation and have records of everything else. Do yourself a favor read the reviews and look elsewhere. I wish I had.
Hey Phil,
I just sent you a message in response to your review through Consumer Affairs, and we'd love the chance to make this right for you! Please contact us at onlinesupport@ autoanything.com, or you can reach me directly at bfredricks@ autoanything.com.
I wish I'd read the reviews before ordering. I ordered Firestone airbags for towing our travel trailer behind our 2017 Pathfinder a month ago. They still haven't shipped. They emailed me letting me know they were out of stock but they still show in stock on their website with quick delivery. COVID is not an excuse. If you know shipping is delayed, change your website! Can't believe my order still hasn't shipped a month later. The trip I needed these parts for has come and gone. Please do not comment back that this is all due to COVID
Edit: Since writing this review my order has been delayed two more times. That's 4 times in 6 weeks they have revised my shipping date! A rep from Autoanything emailed me an apology along with a $30 gift card. I Let her know that it still shows that it will ship within 2-4 days which she said she fixed but still has not. I've requested a cancellation and will order from eTrailer.com.
Before this order was placed we called to confirm the return policy because of Covid we were waiting on other parts and had issues with the garage we were using for the restoration. We were told returns can be made after 90 days of a restocking fee is paid. We called again before placing a second order to verify that the return policy was the same, we got the same information that returns are accepted but restocking fee's might be incurred. When we called again to do the return customer service said their return policy changed and no returns are being processed. I've spent over 6 hours on the phone with customer service and they are unable to process any returns for me.
Received two defective items from them. More than a month later, many emails, lots of aggravation, and waisted time, I eventually purchased my own replacement for one item, and reached out to the actual product manufacturer to attempt to get the other item replaced. I had contacted AutoAnything within minutes of opening the packaging. This is still on going and not 100% resolved as of this date.
When I first started purchasing products from them, they were on the ball. But now orders are pushed back for delivery over and over. I will not be purchasing Anything again from them!
I was gifted seat covers and returned the day I git them since they were a loose fit and my wife was credited only 104 out of 157 dollars. They said restocking fee. That is ridiculous and I would think twice before buying or buying anyone a gift from here.
Hi Jim,
I am so sorry to hear that you have had a negative experience with us after your wife gifted you seat covers! We do charge fees for returns under certain circumstances, but if the fit was wrong due to an error on our behalf, then those fees should definitely be waived.
If there is anything we can do to resolve this for you, please send us an email at [email protected].
Thank you,

I bought a bike rack that said it was In-Stock. I thought this was too good to be true and tried to use their CHAT to confirm, without any luck. The I waited 1 hour on hold to reach a human, which told me it would ship as planned. The day it was supposed to ship, I didn't see a status change, so I tried CHAT again and it only took 41 minutes to reach someone. They said it was still scheduled to ship on time. LIES. That night I received an email saying the product would deliver in 4 months... Worst service, Worst Scam of a Company. I doubt they stock anything at all.
Hi Brandon,
I am so sorry to hear that your bike rack was delayed so extensively despite contacting us for confirmation of stock. I realize this is incredibly frustrating.
I don't mean to make excuses for the trouble you have been through, but I would like to offer you some transparency into why these things happen. We have many items in stock in our own warehouses and in some cases when we don’t have stock on hand, we have the manufacturer ship the item to you directly. We get frequent inventory updates from the manufacturer which feeds into our system so we're quoting the proper delivery times.
Unfortunately during COVID, as suppliers are operating at a reduced capacity, some items aren't shipping out as quickly as our information shows or the availability information that our system uses doesn’t get updated promptly. So while the agent was presumably giving you the best information available at the time, the item may not have actually shipped on time. Our system flags these for follow up with the manufacturer, but again they will occasionally be slower to respond.
We're 100% committed to taking care of our customers, though, and making it up to anyone that may have experienced a frustrating situation as a result of these unprecedented circumstances.
If there is anything we can do to make this right, or if you'd like to cancel this order due to the delay, please send us an email at [email protected].
Thank you,
Bailey
Ordered floor mats for suv front back and cargo. All was said to be in stock. Got rear and cargo and card was charged for all three. Said all three shipped. I sent email about front and they said it was delayed and then email was sent saying it would be another month if I wanted to keep or cancelled. I cancelled the order and then 4 days later they told me they were on the way after I had cancelled and I had done ordered from another company and had in 2 days. Having trouble getting a return number to send back.
Hi Robert,
I am so sorry to hear about the delay you experienced with front mat, and that the cancellation wasn't processed prior to shipment. We have been extremely backlogged lately due to COVID, which has caused some major communication delays on our end and the manufacturers. This is no excuse, though, so I do sincerely apologize and would like to make this right. If you could please email us at [email protected] with your order number, we'd be more than happy to get this return moving forward for you.
Thank you so much for your patience, and we look forward to the chance to rebuilding your confidence in our services.
Best,
Bailey
This company is bogus and fraudulent. They should be shut down. They are bogusly selling products that they don't have available. They sold me rims for my car, and said they had them in stock. Over a week later they send me an email saying they never had them in stock, and I would have to wait for them to be available. They even threatened to charge me a 20% restocking fee if I was not willing to wait. I don't see how legally they can charge a RESTOCKING FEE for a product they never had in stock in the first place.
Hey Patrick!
I am so sorry that we misinformed you about our stock level of the rims you ordered. This was a genuine mistake due to lagging updates from the manufacturer, but I do realize this is extremely frustrating on your end. We hate that we upset you and would love the chance to make it right! I believe we've already started working on a resolution for this problem through other communication channels, but if you are in need of further assistance, please email us at [email protected].
Thank you,
Bailey
Parts on website are not correct parts for vehicle and calling in phone orders and asking them to double check for correct part is useless. Spent a total of 3.25 hours on hold trying to get the correct part returned because they sent return label for the wrong part the first time. Never again.
Hi Chris,
I am so sorry to hear that you spent so long trying to get a resolution to a mistake we made! That is absolutely not a normal AutoAnything experience, and I hate to hear that you had such a poor time dealing with our company. We have been extremely backlogged due to COVID, but that does not make 3+ hour wait times any less inconvenient or frustrating for you.
If you'd be willing to shoot us an email at [email protected], we'd love the opportunity to try to make this up to you.
Thank you,
Bailey
I have used this site two other times and was happy with my purchase but... the last time I purchased the part, a hood protector, that they said would fit my truck. It didn't come close. Then the nightmare started. After over 7 hours on hold ( devided between 9 calls) for customer service. I gave up calling, tried email, all I got was a form reply that said call customer service... I finally fumbled my way through a return on website. Which they never told me was an option. Then after printing a return label I find out they are keeping $53.75 of the $133.99 purchase price for " restocking fees and shipping" This for a mistake that they made on their website to begin with. A costly lesson learned.
Hi Karen,
I am sincerely sorry to hear you have had such an unsatisfactory experience with our company. It is definitely not our policy to charge return fees in cases where the return is due to our mistakes, so this must have been a big misunderstanding. Please send us an email at [email protected], and we'd love to make this right for you.
Thank you,
Bailey
Stay away from this company. 3 times they have "revised" the delivery date of my order and have not replied to 4 requests to refund money. I suspect this to be a front company. For a non legit company
I own a business. Ordered a part for a customers vehicle on 7/6/2020. It's now 7/20/2020 NO part. I have been on hold for over 1.5 HOURS. Yup 1.5 HOURS! Finally a so called customer service rep answers. NO info. No tracking NO nothing. I have confirmed they have NOTHING is their office/ fake warehouse. Everything comes from the actual vendor. All they have is a web site. Horrible, liars... DO NOT buy from this company. If I could of given them a BIG ZERO I would have. Update while writing this review: Ask to speak with a manager... waited for another 20 minutes only to be DISCONNECTED!
Hi Robert,
I am so sorry to hear that you have had such a poor experience with our company so far. We have definitely been experiencing long hold times on our phone lines due to a surge in customer inquiries, however, we have been hiring agents as fast as possible to improve these wait times. We currently have more than triple the number of typical agents and continue to add more so we’re seeing response times consistently improving.
That being said, it sounds like you have had an extremely frustrating experience with us, and we'd love to try to make this right for you. Please send us an email at [email protected] with your order number and the problems you have experienced with your order. We will do whatever we can to turn this situation around.
Thank you,
Bailey
Have contacted auto anything many times with zero response as to an order I placed 40 days ago. No updates no tracking no satisfaction
Hi Steve,
I am so sorry you've had so much trouble reaching us. In full transparency, our response times are still longer than usual -- as with many others in our industry, we're working through a surge (~10X) in contact volume as a result of supply chain disruptions combined with more customers starting new projects. We have been hiring as fast as possible to get response times back to normal. We have more than triple the number of typical agents and continue to add more so we’re seeing response times consistently improving.
That being said, we'd really like the chance to help track down this order you placed so long ago. Please send us an email at [email protected] with your order number, and we would be more than happy to investigate the status of it for you.
Thank you,
Bailey
