Advance Auto Parts in
Kinston (NC)

On a trip from MA-FL-NC-MA my truck started having issues with the spark plugs. I have never encountered such nice, caring people at an auto parts store. After traveling all week and having an issue it was so appreciated to be treated so well. You have rock stars for employees. This was 4/24/25 at 8pm.

On way home after 6 p.m., had a nail in tire. No tire place was open. Stopped in Advance Auto on recommendation from a young man in Circle K next door. The man at Advance Auto checked for air leak, and tire wasn't leaking air. He put a can of "slime" in my tire to be safe. I really appreciated his help! Friendly help is so appreciated ? Thank you!

I made an online order through the app, which were wiper blades and wiper fluid, the kind older gentleman employee, changed my wiper blades for me. Thank you again, sir!!

I was very pleased with the knowledge and helpfulness of this employee. Also, the great deal he got me on the parts that I purchased....keep up the good work...

Devon was so very knowledgeable and friendly!!!

Very nice employees and immediate assistance.

Walked in told the guy what I needed joked for a min but was right out in a few minutes good people and atmosphere

Friendly workers good service

The gentlemen where amazing and really helpful. Unfortunately they didn't carry the part I need but provided so much helpful information.

They were very helpful. They had what I needed. They offered to help me. I would shop there again. Very nice employees. Very knowledgeable.

Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Always eager to answer any questions or offer help. I appreciate that they seem to enjoy what they do. And if there are any issues, returning items is a breeze. I don't shop here a lot, but when I do it us always a pleasure.

Usually if they don't have what you're looking for they can have it the next day. My favorite place to shop for auto parts.

Get what you need most of the time. Helpful and knowledgeable staff.

Normally when I stop there the staff is great but today the guy I got seem to have an attitude and as a female with car issues hoping to get some reassurance he didn't offer any he seemed as tho I was bothering or annoying him. Next time I go there I will make damn sure not to get him

Great place depon location. Kinston w Vernon store sucks. The female worker there with dreads and the bad attitude

Very helpful employees. Bright and sunny disposition. A pleasant visit. Plus purchased part needed...
