How to File a Complaint About AutoZone

AutoZone is one of those shops we all find ourselves in or shopping online eventually. After all, if you have a vehicle, you will need to repair or improve it at some point. Maybe you're picking up winter weight wiper fluid, or you called for an emergency battery replacement. Unfortunately, not everyone's AutoZone experience is ideal.

When something goes wrong, you need to file a complaint and see results. To do this, there are four stages you can go through. The first is complaining to the company. The second is filing complaints and reports on public platforms. In the third step, you can send a demand letter regarding your AutoZone complaints to the brand, warning of further action. Finally, you can send demand letters to them in small claims court for the amount of your loss or damages. At each step of the process, DoNotPay is here to help.

How to Contact AutoZone to Make a Complaint

Let's start with the first step: sending your AutoZone complaints. In many cases, if you let a brand know that there's a problem, they will do everything they can to make it right. With luck, AutoZone will respond to your complaint with attention and care, and your issue will soon be resolved.

The primary way to contact AutoZone customer support is via an email ticket form through the help page. If you navigate to the Contact Us page on the AutoZone website, you will find six category panels, but it doesn't matter which one you click. They all take you to the same email intake form.

1. Navigate to the AutoZone Contact Us Page
2. Click ANY of the six category panels
3. Fill out the email form to create a support ticket
4. Wait for a satisfactory response

File your complaint through the email form to start with. Include details, specific dates, order numbers, and the remedy you'd like to see. Let AutoZone know what happened and politely (at first) frame how this has disadvantaged or cost you. Call and get a live human on the phone to address your ticket if you don't hear back within a day.

How to File a Complaint Against AutoZone

What do you do if AutoZone doesn't respond, or their response is not to fix your problem? You take it to the public forum.

Local AutoZone: Leave Reviews on Yelp, Google, and Angie

If your issue is with an AutoZone store, you should take your complaints to the local business rating sites. Leave your most detailed review on Google, where many businesses track and respond to their ratings. Then leave a similarly detailed review on Yelp and on Angie (previously Angie's List), which rate local businesses and local trades services respectively.

It not only gets the attention of AutoZone, but it also warns others to avoid bad experiences or losses from AutoZone in the same way.

Corporate AutoZone: Leave Complaints With the BBB and FTC

If your issue is with AutoZone's online or corporate behavior, you can report the entire company to the BBB (Better Business Bureau) and the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) regarding corporate malfeasance. Issues of customer service and legitimate business go to the BBB. Issues of payment or legitimate invoicing go to the FTC.

Serious or Financial Issues: Report AutoZone to the State

Has AutoZone done something of a criminal nature? Are they refusing to resolve a potentially criminal or fraudulent problem? You can also report them to your state's Attorney General's office.

Get Personal on Social Media

Finally, if you want to force a response from AutoZone, a popular method is to reach out and voice your complaints on their social media channels. You can often get the attention of the marketing team and community managers even if customer service is not providing support.

Take AutoZone to Small Claims Court if Your Issue Is Not Resolved

AutoZone still won't respond or resolve your issue? You can and probably should take them to court. Your state's small claims court can handle claims with values up to $20,000 (caps vary by state). It means that if your losses are within this range, you can file a small claims lawsuit against AutoZone and make a case for how they incurred your losses or refused to resolve a problem that they have caused.

Not sure about going to court? Don't worry, you're not alone. DoNotPay can help you prepare and file your case step-by-step, right up to a script. You can take it to court to make your case clear and persuasive.

Suing AutoZone With DoNotPay Is Fast and Easy

Filing a small claims lawsuit is not easy, but sometimes it's the only way to get compensation for a loss caused by a corporation refusing to take responsibility. If your complaints to AutoZone and about AutoZone did not have the desired effect, DoNotPay can help you take the reticent company to court and force a response. Then AutoZone will have to defend its action or inaction under the watchful eye of a judge instead of simply "ghosting" your problem in hopes that you will go away.

With DoNotPay, you don't have to give up. For claims of up to $20,000 (depending on your state), we can help you file a small claims lawsuit and carry it through to force AutoZone to pay for damages, inconvenience, and neglect.

Here's how to start a small claims lawsuit against AutoZone with DoNotPay:

1. Log-in to DoNotPay and select the Complaint Letters product.

2. Tell us how much you are owed by the company, if applicable.

3. Select the reason for your lawsuit.

4. Provide details about why you're filing the lawsuit including photographic proof and other important information.

That's it! From there, you and your script can take on the court and make your case. AutoZone will have to answer for its actions when you summon them to court.
