We have all heard of Lowe’s famous department stores, right? Well, did you know that they also have an automobile parts store? At least for now, it is still called Lowe’s Auto Parts. In case you were wondering, we checked with the Better Business Bureau and according to them, this store is currently under their protection and you can rest assured that it is a reputable business.
Is It Part Of The Lowes Corporation?
The short answer is yes. In fact, the corporate headquarters for Lowe’s and the Lowe’s Auto Parts are located in one building in Jacksonville, North Carolina. The complex also houses the corporate offices of other businesses that operate under the Lowe’s umbrella, including, but not limited to, Home Improvement (furniture and lighting stores), Furniture Brands (Sears and Roebuck), and Dillard’s (department stores).
How Many Locations Do You Have?
There are currently 23 Lowe’s Automotive Parts stores across the country. The first location opened its doors in 1937 and the most recent one opened its doors in 2013. We were not able to find any information on whether or not any of the other locations are connected to the Jacksonville headquarters or if all of the locations operate autonomously. Based on the fact that they are all seemingly in good condition, we would assume that they all operate independently. You can get an idea of the variety of vehicles they have on hand by looking at their online car parts store.
Find Out More About The Company
The best way to learn more about Lowe’s is by visiting their website, www.lowes.com. You can click here to be taken to that website now. If you have been to their stores before, then it would be easy to find what you are looking for because everything is laid out in a logical fashion. You also have the option of calling them directly, using their online chat, or sending them an email. Those are all good ways to get in touch with somebody at Lowe’s if you need to.
What Is Your Overall Opinion Of The Company?
The general public has a bad opinion of businesses that deal with auto parts because they believe that those businesses are in some way associated with auto racing. According to the Better Business Bureau, this is definitely not the case with Lowe’s. To prove our point, we would like to let you know that we were not even able to find a single complaint against the company from anyone, ever. Now, that is certainly not to say that there never will be any issues because as we mentioned before, this is still a relatively new business and it takes time for problems to arise. However, up until now, it is definitely safe to say that they are a reputable company with a good reputation.
Final Takeaway
Before you buy any part from a car manufacturer, you should first make sure that the part you are buying is still being produced. Some companies, like General Motors, stop making certain model years after they are released, making it impossible for people to purchase replacement parts for those models. In other cases, the parts become so obsolete that the manufacturer stops supporting them, leaving you with no choice but to purchase new equipment.
This is why it is important to do some research before making any kind of purchase. You can start by looking at the Better Business Bureau or searching for the corporate headquarters of the company that you are considering buying from. Once you find that, you can get in touch with the company directly to get more information about what you need to know. In some cases, the Better Business Bureau can even get you a refund if they feel like your situation is not right and the company you are dealing with is not legitimate.
