LKQ Pick Your Part - Bakersfield JunkYard in Bakersfield (CA)

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....

I sold you my vehicle and they're telling me I have to wait 2 hours before I can cash the check sounds kind of sketchy to me

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.

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

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.

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 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.

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.

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

Local junk yard always my first place to go check out what they have. Wish it was bigger.

This whole company needs to be restructured and fixed most used beat up parts will cost more than buying it new or from someone off the streets all employees will have there hands on the expensive parts first before they throw em in the back expecially Escalade and Denali i can see em pull parts of em before they take them too the back cooperate greed with these prices and sad part is some parts have extra stuff that can't be taken out and they charge u extra for that part I got a center console and all the way in the bottom had a amp that I can't remove and charged me extra $40ish for it

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.

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.

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...

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.

I’m giving this place a 1 star just because I was able to sell my vehicle but the customer service is total trash …. too bad that the woman in the front helping all the customers has a total bad attitude towards everything … not only did they yell through the microphone to the previous customer but gave me a smart remark….

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

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!

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.

Prices on MOST parts are close to, or even EXCEED buying NEW! (ALSO make sure, if you don't want it, to ask them to take off the 30 days warranty fee for a cheaper price! They add it automatically and topically don't even say anything about it.

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.

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

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 couldn't 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.

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 don't have to see these sorry people. Not only that but the prices here are so inconsistent and they want to charge you up the ***. I've 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 doesn't care about you. You've been warned...

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 LKQ's 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!

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 didn't have those. I will never waist my time with these people ever again.

Must be something related with the manager but employers always find a way to take your money. This part is the mark of the sun valley location and they refuse my refund because it’s not properly mart These type of Stupid arguments is always on this location at Bakersfield They solution was to drive all the way to Sun valley to get a $20 a refund When is a corporation
