autozone question...........lifetime axel warranty
i snapped an axle............its a d16z6 axle and i bought it at autozone
i know autozone charges a "core charge" when i get an exhange becuase they like to rip everyone off IE what it takes to do the job right ripoff (they charged me for **** i DIDNT BUY!)
so whats the core charge on 1 axle to return and get a new one, just want to know since i dont have a d16z6 turbo anymore

Re: autozone question...........lifetime axel warranty (suicide_shift)
What?? Thats dumb. A core charge is to make sure you bring them back a broken axel that they can send back to the man. to be remand. If you havent given them your old or broken axel, theres your problem. To bring back a lifetime axel to get a new one, theres not a core charge 
The person working at Autozone is not too smart or you dont understand the concept of core charge.

Re: autozone question...........lifetime axel warranty (ITR_Sol)
just trying to make sure, they always charge me on a battry warranty and **** like that.......
i get the concept IE snap on tools they dont charge you but place that scam people IE parts stores like to take your money and they like to spring a charge on you.

Parts have core charges. Just bring an old part in and trade it for the core. If it's an alternator or starter, just make sure it has it's mounts.
It's really no big deal. And battery cores are $5. They don't charge for the warranty. They ask for your phone number for your warranty, but they don't charge for the warranty. If you say you don't want to give them your number, you might end up without a warranty. Your battery won't be any cheaper if you do this.
They're not "springing a charge on you." They're paying for your old part. If you want to keep it, you pay for it.
Think of it as that the part (as long as it's a re-manufactured part - not including batteries - and not a new part) is worth the part price plus the core. If you bring in the old part, you get money back.
If you don't want to pay a core charge, buy a new part instead.
If you snap an axle... why would you want to keep it anyway?

Re: autozone question...........lifetime axel warranty (suicide_shift)
Okay, this is how it goes.
You have a broken axle. You want to replace your broken axle. You go to Autozone with your broken axle and have them look up the axle for your car. You match the axle to make sure it is correct. You turn your broken axle in as a core. You pay for the new axle. You leave. You install your axle and go on your merry way with a limited lifetime warranty (which means as long as you own the car, it's covered). Then end.
Look at the chart above for pricing. Pricing depends on which axle you need for your car.

1: i OWN autozone axels
2: with the lifetime warranty
3: broken
4: want new axel
5: go to autozone
6: give them broken axel and phone number
7: how much do i pay that retard behind the counter? for my new axel?

Okay, so your Autozone axles broke?
Then go in and ask for a replacement. You have a limited lifetime warranty. It costs NOTHING.
Your parts are still under warranty. Do you not understand what having a warranty means?
And you call the counter person a retard.

Maybe you don't get it. She works at Autozone. I'm sure she knows the return policy for a warantied part a little better than you. I'm surprised you can tie your own shoes.

And what you just said has what to do with her knowing more about the company policies than you? It has what to do with you returning your broken axle and getting a free replacement?
Seriously, if the counter monkey is too retarded, then speak to a manager. If he's retarded too, talk to the store manager. They're all ASE certified and have, in general, at least 5 years management experience in auto parts. Even if he's completely brain-dead .... he'll still be able to get you what you need.
Autozone is not a place you go to get your car worked on, or fixed, or diagnosed. It's a store you go to buy parts. You wouldn't go into a Safeway and ask the cashier how to make Salmon En Crute would you? You wouldn't ask the salesman at Best Buy how to replace a blown preamplifier inside a head unit, would you?
Right now, you're being too stubborn to accept the simple fact that .... (here's the tricky part)
You get a free axle tomorrow.
So go to Autozone, and fix your ******* problem.

Re: autozone question...........lifetime axel warranty (suicide_shift)
I have pepboys and autozone axles in both of my hatches. Whenever my friends or I need a new axle I just bring them the receipt every time they gladly replace the axle free of charge.
It happen on two occurences where they actually gave me $50 after I returned the axle and got a new one. I didn't say a word..........
I've been rotating axles now for 4-5 years, work the system don't let it work you.

Oooooh, snide comments from a guy who can't figure out how to work a receipt. Call me a ricer, call me an idiot, whatever. At the end of the day, you look like an assbag piece of ****, and I still know what I'm doing under the hood of my car, and over the counter at a store.
I don't work at Autozone. I'm just actually clever enough to figure out warranty information without posting on Honda-Tech. I cook for a living, and do a fine job of it. I wrench for a hobby.
By the way, working parts and working tech are COMPLETELY different arenas. I know WONDERFUL parts people that can't wrench for ****. I also know Master Technicians that couldn't sell food to a starving man. You're comparing apples to oranges here.
EDIT:
I'd also like the point out that you're the only person I've ever met who's had problems returning a part to Autozone when it was under warranty.
Another thing .... why is it that the only people who have a problem with me .... are dirtbag '07 members with like twelve posts?
how'd that happen? they usally just bitch at my store........maybe i should drive a little ways and just go to the next city...........cant stand the douche bags at the one in my city.......******* ricers.....................as in bodykits etc and they are know it alls too....

Most people who come into parts stores know nothing about cars. Some of those people act like they know everything about cars though.
And technically, our cars don't have serpentine belts. I think it's defined as a belt that runs more than one device. I don't know about you, but my car has three belts (alternator, a/c and power steering are all independent). Had they looked it up in the computer though, all our belts (save for the timing belt of course) are listed under serpentine belts. It's like that for all cars. There is just a generic list for us to look up parts. Say that you call a part some archaic term that I've never heard of and you can't describe it in another way, it won't pop up unless I type in the exact words the computer wants. For example, there are no "brake light bulbs" in our computer system. Only "stop light bulbs". Don't ask me why it can't read them as being the same item.
Sometimes the noobies get tripped up. Even the people who used to work with us might get tripped up at first since Autozone has started using a completely new program (was DOS based before).

If the people at your local store are too retarded to work a warranty return, go to another one and don't say a word about the other store until after your warranty has been worked out. If you have trouble, ask for the district manager's phone number.

Perhaps you never noticed that there is no garage on the back of your Autozone building. Autozone does not work on cars, so technically none of the employees really need to know how to troubleshoot your issues.
We get phone calls all day. Do you turn rotors? No. Do you sell tires? No. Do you work on cars? No. Could you install my suspension/radiator/compressor/etc? No.
We have has ******** work at my store before. They work their way through the system. I had people I had known about at another Autozone on the other side of the country that thought lifters could be for trunks or hoods. I tell my coworkers this story and they just giggle though.
It really depends on the manager more than anything. The manager will decide if they think those people can handle the job. If the manager at your store doesn't give a fvck, your store will end up with horrible employees. If you want your local store to change, get the district manager's number and start making complaints. Give that number to your friends. Have them start making phone calls. Every complaint you have, make a phone call. Tell the district manager. The store manager will get his/her *** chewed out and so will the employees. They employees will either stop slacking, or get fired because the manager would rather fire them than get everyone fired.
Oh, and sounds like those employees are behind on their certifications too. All Autozone employees are supposed to get several different certifications, plus are offered the chance to get ASE Parts Specialist courses paid for them if they can pass the practice test.
If you want this store to change, start complaining.
