Also, I’ve had severe quality problems with AutoZone parts in recent years, so I don’t particularly mind if some of their stores burn down.
Don’t know about burning their stores down.
All chain auto parts stores store brand are the same thing from the same factories in China just in different boxes. The nickname for autozone’s is Duracrap.
All those chain stores also sell brand name parts like Wagner brakes, Standard ignition etc but they cost a lot more. If I don’t need something the same day, I go to rockauto, get the brand name and have it shipped to my door for less than I can buy them at the chain store. Most of the brand name stuff is made in China now but still better quality than non name or store brand.
