What clients say about LKQ Pick Your Part - Bakersfield in Bakersfield (CA)
-
Save yourself the headache and go to one of the Fresno yards, or at the bare minimum weight for a half off weekend. Their prices have gotten way out of hand and the staff is unenthusiastic at best and unfriendly at worst. If you decide you absolutely have to go to this yard then make sure the car you're looking to get parts from has only been there a few days otherwise it will have been stripped bare of any parts that don't cost more than their eBay counterparts as competition here is fierce.

Good place to get used parts but since lkq has bought the place the prices have sky rocketed

This place is ridiculous. Make sure you price out new parts before you show up to pull them. They tried to charge me $60 for a bcm and a new AC Delco is $50. Was also very upset as two of the other costumers with wheelbarrows full of parts in front of me didn't even show what they had relating they knew somebody. The one in front of me had a steering gear box and some miscellaneous electronic boxes. They only paid $20 for their parts and then they tried to charge me $90 for a starter wiring harness and bcm. Absolutely ridiculous I left both items and wont be back. Purchased both new $130.

Literally the worse experience I’ve had at a junkyard. Not only are they over priced but they tried to charge me separately for something that was all one assembly. Definitely wouldn’t recommend. Rather travel to Timos auto wrecking where they actually care about their customers.

They charge you to bring it in their establishment. Basically.Charge you for every step u take .. timos auto wrecking best ...

Good prices but, goofy ahh vending machine didn’t give me my Gatorade and still charged me smh

Some parts are better to just buy brand new, because I think they over charge something for being used. This place is only good for getting parts you can't find anywhere else.

Showed up with a half baked plan to pull a transmission for a 1987 924s. Was always going to be tricky but the team made it work including helping past closing time to make sure I didn't have to do a return trip the next day. Thank you!

Well, 1st off SOOOOO many cars here. I'm sure you're looking for parts that are here. For sure. I will post Some pictures of this amazing place to go see! NEWER AND OLDER vehicles that have been left to Scrap.! I am a local guy in the corner of her Valley. And I hope updates and just general stuff about The Valley itself. And here's another one of those posts!(: LOOK me up on youtube >KERN RIVER RICHES< YOUTUBE! EST 2018! I will say that it was one of the Most expensive pick a part's places/Yards I've ever been to comma a passenger mirror four a CHRYSLER 300 2007 WAS $136..... No I would understand if they went out and pulled the parts for you. But nope, you get to get out in the Bakersfield Heat and bring your own tools! As well as Get searched when you come in and get searched when you go out! (And Do All the work urself and still pay high prices!!!) Ultimately, my review is that it's a money pit and you'll have better luck on Ebay, but if you just like to look for stuff yourself and you like to hike a couple miles back and forth in the middle of a junkyard with parts, screws, bolts, everywhere then be my guest.! I found the best part was finding all the loose change. $$$ People were just leaving behind! Lol just being honest(: If you're gonna bring your children, then I'm really big on safety so watch what they're doing all times because I did see a couple syringe And now we'll never fly in my book. That's for sure, just a little warning for the little ones. That's all. What are the? You can be the judge about whether this is the place 4 you or not. It's right next to the auto glass place called Tim's auto glass.! You can't miss it lol. And before us I'll answer the question for you. No, they do not help you find any parts at all. You pay $5 to get in. And then you have to pay for all the parts separately after you're done. So when you hear that truck Driving around honking, You Better get your butt to the front of the place to Check out.(: customer service was great except the 4 $ gatorades But whatever beggers can't be choosers right(: Really pray this review was helpful to you and if it was give it a thumbs up and don't forget to check out my YouTube channel where id love to hear how many people actually read this and took the time like i did to write me a comment on one of my channel's Videos! Just saying that they came from Google reviews. That would really make My day and my birthday is on June 20th so if anything Do it for my birthday. Lol GOD BLESS everyone and be safe out there.! Because it's a cold cold world you know, AND I WAS BORN IN JUNE Lolol(:

Apparently they close at 4:30pm now although their website clearly says open until 5pm. You also have to pay $5 at the gate just to get in, find the vehicle, and hope the part you’re looking for is still there and in good shape, if not then you’re out of luck. I tried calling multiple times but could never get through to a representative.

Both side mirrors & OEM Honda glove box for $55! Honda was asking like $500+ for all 3… So glad I found a perfect 1999 civic that has manual windows before anyone else was able to take them Entrance was only $5 & they accept card.

It's a very self reliant type of place. Must take your own tools to get the job done. You take your time to handle your business there and no one bothers you. Which is great. No one is rushing you out the door until closing time. So it's a great place for parts.

This junkyard sucks, online prices are much higher in person, they tell that the online prices and fake. They sell rim and tires separate. They check your legs and stomach when you exit. They are aggressive, they have gang members as staff, and the security guy just has this hand on this gun the whole time. What a coward. This place need to get sued for searching women and exposing body parts to public.

Called the 800 number week ago. Said they had 2 radiators at local shop. Gave me price and warrantee over phone. Called today and they tell me they don't know who told me that but they can't tell me anything except go out, look for the the truck and see if they have the part. Lady was pretty rude. Kids screaming in background so it was gard to understand or communicate. Illbtake my business where they appreciate my money I work hard for.

You need a live person to answer a question. You DO NOT "have a complete list of parts for your car". You DO NOT have a price list for the item you seek. If you did have a price list, as you advertised, then you probably would have more sales. Just my opinion. Fresno salvage yards, not LKQ, has better customer service and that makes sales. For me the fuel price + the monies saved = the same $ loss however being treated as an equal and leaving feeling positive makes it worth the drive.

I used to own a Chevy equinox and the front grille molding trim fell off and I was shopping to replace it . SoI was shopping online and another online retailer was asking $210 another wanted $113 and my brother said " if I've retired pick your part ?" Which I'm glad he did i grabbed my tool bag and of I went. I found it there with some Door panel clips that I needed. I paid like $53. They also offer like a warrant for big items in case it's not what you need and you have the choice to bring it back only one some parts. It took me less than 10 min to get what I needed. You can check car inventory online that way you know if they have another car like yours to so you can get what you need from that vehicle. Pick your part saved me alot of money just by pulling out the part myself. Just take your tool bag so you can take off the parts yourself. They also buy vehicles that you no longer need I called ahead I had a car that I didn't use anymore. I called ahead of time they gave me a quote on how much they would give me for it and a confirmation number that was good for the day and the whole process of selling that old car was so simple. I took my car down to pick your part gave them the confirmation number Mary Lou gave me over the phone and she was right on the money on what Mary Lou quoted me. I can't tell you how simple and fast it was. So if you have a car you just don't use anymore take it to pick your part they will buy it from you, if your looking to save some cash on a really expensive car part your looking for you don't mind getting your hands dirty get your tool bag and pick the part yourself....

They won't honor quoted prices. Don't waste your time and gas driving out there. I spoke to a rep several times on the phone to sell My Sienna. At first, she wouldn't buy it because of the aftermarket parts. Then she called me back and we agreed on a price. When I got down there on a Saturday, they informed me I would have to take a price reduction because of the aftermarket cc. This was after signing over the title and bill of sale. Either they are shady or incompetent at the customer's expense. I will be filing a complaint.

Paid both admissions only to find that the first part I needed had been heavily damaged with a crow bar... oh well. Second part, I was charged for a "warranty" that their website and a sign at their entrance clearly states is optional. When I was told that I must pay for the "warranty" I asked for a supervisor only to be told that "they tell us we have to charge you for the warranty". I mentioned it to another employee on the way out and they said "they make us charge it, I just work here... don't want to get fired...". This is a clear case of bait & switch/upcharging. Side note: I bought a tailgate for a truck and they charged me $7.99 for each cable/tether on either side of the tailgate... On my receipt they were itemized as CLUTCH CABLE x2 and they charged me for warranties on both as well... Needless to say, I am going to submit a complaint to the FTC and BBB...

Who ever owns this place now needs to re-hire everyone from the gate to the booth.. Crooks. It's one price online and 3times that amount in person. We are all struggling so to get robbed by people in your own neighborhood hurts. There's an eery and empty feeling almost like a dark cloud. I suppose as long as the owners making money it doesn't matter. All money ain't good money.

Don't go after it rains... They could of put up a sign at the gate, that half the yard had 6in of water.

This place isn't so bad. Prices are mostly decent, but sometimes the guys seem to not quite know all the types of parts, and will charge you for something you are not getting. Overall decent, large selection (though if you are looking for specific cars that are rare, good luck), but be sure to check their website before you go. It's supposedly updated every few days, but I've been there several times and had members of staff help me look for a car the website says in in one spot, only to find it has already been removed more than a week ago.

They have always had the parts I needed and hadn't 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 didn't ask for. That's wrong

People in the registers to mean They sale you guarantee wen you don't ask for it. Place is a mess Big lines just one register open

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. That's 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.

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 don't have their app displayed when arriving.

This place is better than heaven. We'll 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. It's awesome!

Saturday November 30 I spent an hour pulling parts 5 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

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.
