Ok, so I rolled down my driveway like usually cause loud and trying not be a total ass to my neighbor. I then tried starting in street, it grind.So I relized the one bolt side hole on starter broke, causing the starter to be lose from the block and grinds. So no biggie i changed with a spare in street. Went to start and no good :( So I pulled the colt up driveway with the truck.

I then went did few running arounds then autozone. Well they cant find my info to replace starter.. :( I love how the manager comes over and tries all same things. still no good so I'm like you can see all the markings, it's new looking cause only few years old and she's like well you could got it anywhere 'meaning CL or junkyard' so im like well im no some scumbag I only buy lifetime warranty things from you cause everything is cheaply made. If wasnt for lifetime i'd go elsewhere. So still.no good so i'm like so.basically if i cant find a 3YR old reciept im sol? and shed like yea.... soo what do i do? lol so frustrating the things they say like maybe a friend or mechanic did the job? im like no..i only do my own work... so ill try a differen store, i refuse buy again when i has a warranty

Autozone can look up oldass warranties. I was able to look up an old brake pad warranty using an old phone number. You just have to remember that phone number.

Doubt hitting a different autozone store will help, all their computers are linked to one database unless you're talking about trying a different auto store.

A different store may help. I notice that sometimes people go out of their way to help you and other times they can't wait to get rid of you :lol: . Just depends on if you get a lazy employee or not.

Just frustrating. Happened with brake pads at orreilys for my jeep compass. They did'nt have my info for the warranty. I'm like why would i buy backs but not fronts from same store. Yea, the computers are linked, but like mirageman said some are more helpful. I just want to get it replaced lol... with my luck the info wasn't saved and it'll be a headache to replace. Sucks cause tonights a big car meet with 1320video might make an appearance.
