FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE: AN), America's most admired automotive retailer, today announced the official launch of AutoNationParts.com, a new eCommerce website enabling Customers to purchase high-quality automotive parts and accessories at competitive prices, shipped directly to their homes.
Providing fast nationwide shipping for guaranteed-to-fit genuine manufacturer parts from more than 25 brands, AutoNationParts.com aims to meet growing demand from DIY mechanics and "do-it-for-me" Customers who can confidently purchase parts online and have them expertly installed by their chosen mechanic, ensuring a seamless and convenient experience.
"Increasingly, consumers want the ability to go directly to a website and order exactly the car parts they need at a competitive price, with fast shipping times and transparent pricing," said Mike Manley, AutoNation's Chief Executive Officer.
