PartsGeek Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a predominantly negative reputation among customers, primarily due to significant issues with order accuracy and return processes. Many reviews highlight frustrations over receiving incorrect parts and the subsequent difficulty in obtaining refunds, with customers often bearing return shipping costs for errors not of their making. Additionally, the customer service experience is frequently described as inadequate, characterized by long wait times and unhelpful responses. While some customers noted prompt delivery of the correct items, the overall sentiment reflects a lack of reliability and support, leading to a strong recommendation to seek alternative suppliers.

Steal your money!
July 29, 2022

This is a corrupt company. When you return their auto part, on time, by UPS. They will give you the run around. We didn't receive your product. Check with UPS. They said it got there on time. If you need to ask me questions about company? Look up *******@yahoo.com. They won't return your money!

No exchange for defective parts, only a refund that takes for ever. Return is at the buyers expense.

ITS A SCAMMMMM
July 28, 2022

They don't even deserve 1 star. I ordered a part on July 17th that was suppose to be delievered on the 20th. I never received it so i called them and they told me to wait 3-7 business days so i call on the 7th day and the package still hasn't left the warehouse. Crazy bc i have a fedex shipping number but fedex don't have a package. I called them on the 27th and told them i wanted a refund. They told me i wasn't getting a refund. All of a sudden i receive an email saying i'm getting refunded the amount i paid but when i check my account in the posted section it's say "Parts Geek refund for $…… to the card ending in …." and right next to ot where your money amount in your account suppose to be it say $0.00. I called them and they said i have to talk to my bank because it's pending this that and the third. MY WORK CHECK IS PENDING IN MY ACCOUNT OF THE REFUND WAS PENDING ITLL BE IN THE PENDING SECTION

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY IT IS A F*CKEN SCAM!

They suck as...
July 26, 2022

So getting ready to move to Montana for me and my wife's dream jobs wife's wheel bearings are sounding kind of bad so I ordered two hub assemblies I take it to the shop and when the mechanic shows me the new part on it had more slop than the old part did the tire moved over a half inch so I called and told them my situation letting them know I needed to leave by Saturday they pretty much told me to get screwed. They would not give me a refund until I got my old parts off course I had to pay my mechanic $300 extra to put on the new part so I told them they need to send me the new part and then I can send them the old part because the other one was too bad to put back on and they did absolutely nothing to help me they just try to blow smoke up my butt and tell me to hold on every 10 minutes to see what they could do and basically told me just to return it and they would finally give me my money back in 14 days at this point I don't know how the hell I'm going to get to Montana and it looks like I'm going to lose my job and my wife as well they did not care one bit on how bad this affected me in my life they refused to ship it to me faster they refuse to do anything that would actually help me I will never do business with these pieces of crap again.

They Lie
July 21, 2022

They told me the part was new. The part was reconditioned. They did pay the return shipping but kept the shipping fee they charged for the purchase.

I have received wrong item by their mistake. I have ordered shock absorbers and received some pressure switch about a week ago. I'm located in NJ on the papers on packege everething is correct, but there was a shipping slip inside the package and it says that this part supposed to be shipped to NC. And of course wrong part. As for now I send wrong part to partsgeek, as thay asked to, but partsgeek refusing to send me correct items or give any refund. Instead of refund I received email that says that I may receive refund only when they receive wrong item and check its quality and it will take 10 to 14 days. Come on it's ridiculous. I need my parts yesterday. Don't recommend to order anything from these guys

Save your money.
July 12, 2022

Buy from a reputable dealer. Ordered part in accordance with their spec. Sheet. Part doesn't fit. Part had to be painted so no return which is understandable but for the part to not fit is inexcusable.

Waste of time
July 11, 2022

This bunch are listing items that they do not have and they will either send you nothing or the wrong part and my guess is that they just want to charge your credit card and make a little interest off of it or just make a sale, I wasted two weeks with this company for a part, screw them!

Parts Geek sent me the wrong catalytic convertor then when I contacted them about the issue they tried to blame it on me. Going by the part description and the picture they were wrong. I contacted them about a return. They approved the return and emailed me a return code and instructions. Did everything they asked to the T for this return and I'm getting bull crap responses about getting my refund. Never ordering from them again. Terrible system

Even if the parts that you order show to be correct but actually do not fit because of manufacturing wrong, you get to pay the shipping in order to receive your refund. OR SO I THOUGHT... I did contact Parts Geek and they listened to my concerns. They provided me with a postage paid return shipping label.
That is the way to conduct a business, in my opinion. Now, Parts Geek has a respected place in my searches when I am looking for parts for customer cars.
***Thank You Parts Geek!***

Alternator core return
June 30, 2022

Great prices, but they do not tell you all that is required when you need to return an item or core. If purchased an alternator and charged $100 for a core charge to get that back I was told I would receive an email for shipping to return the old alternator. What was not mentioned was I would have to pay out of my own pocket to return the old alternator to receive my core charge. The cost to ship the old is $60-$70. I reality I would only be receiving $30-$40 returned back to me after ALL said and done.

My roommate ordered a gas tank. They took her money, and they sent the part to somebody else in another city who took possession personally. My roommate found this out and sent them a message saying hey you got my money but I didn't get my gas tank. They've sent a message back telling her they would send her a return label. She then sent them another message saying why would I need to return label for something I didn't receive. Their response to everything is the same answer every time. After the last one they wouldn't even get in contact with her. EBay gave her money back. I messaged them four times today asking if she ordered again if you would get the damn thing delivered to her. Their answer again was the same response every time which was all their parts information is correct to the best of their ability and they stand by everything. Has absolutely nothing to do with the question that was asked. I told them then I would give them a very crappy review and we would never order anything ever again from them and not recommend anyone else ever did either

Worse company
June 29, 2022

Warning, the radiator I ordered was not the right one, they sent me the wrong one. I asked to return it. They made me pay shipping and when I found out it was going to cost $209.00 so I contacted PayPal and then the company said they would send me a prepaid label. They received it back & said they will refund my money. They never did so I notified PayPal and they refunded my money. I will never buy from them again. Worse customer service so be aware, there policy on returning is the customer pays shipping no matter who's at fault.

Ordered a pair of exterior side mirrors for 95 F-150 I have in Mexico and they were exactly as shown and delivered on time!
I'm impressed with the ease of purchase, quality of the product and stunned with the delivery during this period of time on the US!
