I called the Bakersfield lkq talked to a man about a gas tank he said nothing available, I said ok thank you, the employee very rudely just hung up with no response. If that’s the way business is done I will not recommend lkq.

They have always had the parts I needed and hadnt had any problems till today. I picked up a car door and their website said doors were 50 dollars. The guy working charged me 77 dollars. I asked why the price was so much more and he said taxes and other fees. Then I found out that he charged me 15 dollars for a warranty I didnt ask for. Thats wrong

You know it is hard to say . The selection is good ! ( BUT ) you will spend about 1/2 the price of new ! You pay to get in ! You are searched like a criminal ! In and out ! If you want the good cars you have to pay a second time to see them . And if you want a guarantee you have to pay for that . So all and all I suggest buy new

For the choice of used Auto parts, the prices are outrageous! Just got a seat belt, only the one anchored to the floor, not the strap belt, and it cost $30 bucks! Make this place your last when desperate! Good luck people

Horrible experience. I paid admissions to get in. I pulled the part myself, that took an hour and a half. Then I finally made it to the counter to pay and they tell me $229 for a column off a 2000 Tahoe. I could have brought it from their full service yard cheaper and saved my Sunday morning and my $3.00. it was a joke. I found the column online for $80 shipped to my door with the key and lock cylinder, pick a parts didnt have those. I will never waist my time with these people ever again.

Review №15

1. The entry is badly marked. Unless you know where you are going, it looks like the entry to an auto glass place.2. Our 13 year old target vehicle required a 2 dollar up charge over the three dollar entry per person.3. We asked them to confirm the price given on the website before we entered. They said the $42 price quoted on the website was out of date and said it would be $66 plus tax. Thats a $24 increase over the price we got 2 minutes before in the parking lot! More than 50% higher than expected.4. Could not locate the app for my phone to get free admission.We took a hard pass. Not interested in bait and switch pricing.

Honestly the worst pick your part I’ve been to!!! They gave me the hardest time and kept trying to low ball me and the girls in the office were not professional at all . Sadly but true

Free admission, if you download the PickYourPart/LKQ app. Although to enter the Premium/Late Model section, there is a $2 upcharge, which is on top of the $3 entry fee, if you dont have their app displayed when arriving.

I may have not found what I was looking for- a 2003 honda accord front driver side panel. I was satisfied with easy guidance from the yards organized strategy. Yard was broken into different parts, which was marked at the end of each row-American or Import. Every vehicle was completely identified with a conveniently visible and easily readible sticker. The staff was willingly informative of the availability of their stock and much needed part that I was looking for. No confusion or inconvenience on LKQs part. No indifference from the staff or other customers either. Regardless the empty outcome I was very satisfied with my experience here today at LKQ. Good job guys!

This place is better than heaven. Well if u like hot, no shade, and parts for days. If they had some portable shade for inside the yard that would really be better than heaven. All the employees are always helpful even when I have a million questions. And the parts never stop. Its awesome!

Review №27

Decent selection of cars but the workers here are miserable! I would rather pay 3x the amount for the same part at another location where you dont have to see these sorry people. Not only that but the prices here are so inconsistent and they want to charge you up the ***. Ive been to other LKQ locations and this one I would have to say is by far the worst. Go to another location that values your time and money and not this multibillion dollar company that doesnt care about you. Youve been warned...

Not the cleanest or most organized LKQ Pick-Your-Part, but had some above average/newer/surprisingly intact vehicles. The inventory is good bottom line, but even fewer amenities than you would expect from an LKQ yard.

For the ones that actually read this. This places charge a warranty weather u want it or not if u dont get the warranty for all your items they will not sale you the part I ask to get it remove and they said they couldnt sale me the stuff I brought what I needed only Im glad I made a complaint with BBB they need to be look at ... and find a better way to make money instead of over charging customers!

Always check part prices on the website and confirm with the payment booth. Ive had them charge me much more at times than what it showed online.$3 per person to enter and $2 more if you want to enter the primo lot

Do not go to this place they will rob you very rude people work here not truthful when you sale them your vehicle they give you a quoteand when you are there they give you another one. They take advantage of people. If it was possible I would do a -1 or no star.

Review №36

Same as any you pick,you buy ...normal junkyard atmosphere..the armed guard was friendly enough...However after my time pulling the parts i needed...At the cashier window it was quickly apparent that auto-zone or oreilleys would be the wisest financial and part warranty choice....p.y.p...$12 short of brand new lifetime warranty...and thats without adding their costly 30 day.....

Every time I come here it seems to get worse! They overcharge at least double the regular price which we found out after a phone call.Seen three people leave in anger since they couldnt afford the steep price for even the smallest parts. Honestly anywhere else would be a lot better to get what you need than this shady place.

LKQ was scheduled to pick up my jeep that runs..... the driver was on time ..However he pointed to a small dent and said the catalytic converter was aftermarket. And that the price was reduced by 100 dollars. ....He would have to get underneath car to see the cats........ needless to say really screwed up my schedule waiting around for b.s.

Do not give these thieves $1 of your money. First they tried taking all the gold computer parts out of NY tool chest claiming I got them out of a car, I had to call the sheriff to get that straightened out..... Next, they have prices in their website, so I go and pull the part I need it takes almost 3 hours, and wouldnt you know, theyre actually charging almost 5x more then they say for the part.

Saturday November 30I spent an hour pulling parts5 parts I paid for them and I knew something was wrong. The receipt did not add up right with the 40% off. It added up to 20% off when it was 40% off day. I talked to the office they just Ignored me and said it was right. I just want to let everyone know check your receipts and add them up. I will never go back there again. I was just wondering how many people they rip off sense Thursday

AFTER youve paid the entrance fee (of 6$ for two persons), you realize that you have to pay another 4 bucks to be allowed to see primo row cars. And then, AFTER youve paid these 10 dollars, you find out that the car listed in the inventory doesnt even exist!!! Do yourself a favor and dont waste your time and fuel to come here! One star is still way overrated

Review №65

I called pick a part at 3:58 p.m. on a Tuesday. I waited on hold over an hour only to get a recording at 5:00 announcing they were closed and was instructed to call back during regular business hours. I never spoke to a person. Because of them my car was towed and impounded. They are horrible at customer relations, especially the dispatcher. The driver seemed nice but he barely spoke English. I wish I could have called someone else but all the different numbers I called that were supposed to be different businesses but all my calls got routed to this same rude dispatcher.

Review №67

Very inconvenient...We left my part at the gate where we paid a 3$ entry fee this time.. We went and got the part we were looking for and went to go pay.. They charged me the price of the part plus a core charge.. I said my core was at the gate 40 feet away, can I go get it? They said no, I would have to go get it and start over again.. So the end result was It cost me 9 extra dollars, when I could have sat home and had the part delivered to my house for 5 more dollars and not have had to go get my own part....

Review №73

The staff is rude and act like all things are an inconvienence. After not having a tool for a certain bolt I was charged for one bolt to go and buy the tool I needed to remove the rest from a 2 part bench seat. After buying the proper tool and finishing the job I was charged for two separate seats instead of a two piece bench because they are two parts. What a shame. Paid more for the hassle then it cost to go and buy one from a private business.

Review №74

These guys need to update there business hours way more often! I dont know how many times I have looked up their hours and driven clear across town just to be turned away and told they close earlier than it says even on their signs at the location completely a waste of my valuable time, gas and energy and most of the employees there are rude as hell and act like its the most miserable job on the planet. Then they raised their prices on everything last year. For being such a large company you would think they could find someone to update their business info regularly and Hire people who value their jobs. Step it up LKQ

DO NOT take your vehicle there for Salvage! SCAMThis company conducted an obvious Bait-and-Switch on my daughter. She was told on the phone that a flat rate of $250 would be paid to salvage her 2003 Chevy Impala. The car was complete and other than not running had all parts there and was ready to be parted out. When she arrived after paying for a Tow Truck to take her there. She was told that all they could pay was $105. They knew she had paid for the tow and would be stuck if she had to pay for a return tow. This constitutes an obvious Bait-and-Switch scam.

The website says it has an inventory of cars. The car I needed was listed, so I went. I had to pay $3 to get in, then another $2 to get to the area that has the car I needed. Then the car wasnt there. The cashier guy said, They probably got rid of it yesterday. I called yesterday and confirmed that it was there. I feel ripped off.

Review №86

Paid $3 to get in. Had to hike through the mud to the back of the lot to find the part I needed, removed it and went back up front to pay for it where they tried to charge me more for it than a brand new one from autozone plus an extra $5 if I wanted any kind of warranty. So basically I paid $3 to play in a mud puddle and have a clerk call me a cheapskate.

This place is a fraud, they steal your money to get in, the vehicle you looked up online that shows its there is not there. Will not give you your entrance fee back, called there cooperate they said owell. If you steal from them you go to jail, if they steal from you doesnt matter.

Review №88

Only reason I come here is it’s the only one in town. Prices are not the best. I only shop here if I need something straight away otherwise I’ll shop in other towns. They say they close at 5 but if you turn up at 4.30 the gates will be shut. But it seems most of the lkq’s ive been to around the US are all the same. Parts all over the ground, prices that are higher than others and staff that like to over charge
