I bought parts from them a few times. Never had any issues whatsoever. They have cheap prices and they also offer 5% discount codes to use quite often. It`s a great auto retailer site to use in my opinion.

I've ordered several parts for my Avalanche, 530i, and Passat from Rockauto. Never had an issue of any kind.

If i'm buying more than one part for my vehicles I usually buy it from Rock. My whole AC system in the WS6 is from there. My whole suspension for my daily driver is from there as well. They are legit.

As long as you don't need parts right then Rock Auto is a great source. They typically have more than one brand and price point available also. Also they have never sent me the wrong parts.

Also to add to their legitimacy, I have had no issue getting rebates honored on parts purchased from there. This means they are an authorized retailer.

Cant vouch for quality of aftermarket body parts, but they are great. Have purchased many times. They tell you what you are getting and usually give you brand options.

Ordered a few time from there. Once for the tensioner pulley's for the SS and once for the heated power mirror on my wifes nitro that got clipped off when she slip on the ice backing up the little ramp into the garage. Both times were great prices for ac delco pulleys and mopar side mirror were the cheapest I could find and they shipped pretty fast.

I havent got any parts there for the Camaro but theyre all I go through on my daily driver. Ive never had an issue and they undercut the local parts stores by alot. I replaced the entire suspension on my Grand Am gt with all oem delco stuff for less than autozone or advance stuff.

order all my Moog parts from them as they have the best prices on Moog, you have to be careful about the really discounted "private label" parts as I have 1 front sway bar endlink for my trailblazer that was supposed to be a private label Moog part but looks nothing like the other 3 moog endlinks, to cheap to bother with returning that one and had a similar issue with one of the ball joints for my firebird, but I sent that one back because they where in Moog Boxes but weren't Moog parts (Moog ball joints have a golden brass color on the end where the grease fitting screws in and are stamped Moog on that area, is how I knew I had the wrong parts). only sucky thing is having to pay return shipping on there screw ups. but overall worth the hassle if you plan things ahead of time.

They are good, as everyone else described.
I ordered a hose for power steering with 2 day shipping.
Got the right part first time and on time at price that was cheaper than local stores.

They have good prices but are usually the same price or more expensive than other vendors when you add shipping and tax. I've ordered tons of stuff through them but when I had an issue with missing items in an order, combined with paying extra for expedited shipping and getting standard ground shipping, their customer service pretty much told me to go take a hike and that they'd refund me for just the missing items. Never used them after that.
