Kail and Jonathan are the nicest customer service reps I've encountered in years!

Has my Evaluation Changed from the Previous Review, NO!!! Sadly the business has been taken over by owners that have no idea what the surrounding communities needs are!!! These owners definitely don't want to pay their workers as shown by the unsafe conditions of the yard. Customers have taken it into their own hands by lift vehicles with engine hoists to be able to get to parts. These are parts that are underneath and inaccessible by the height placed by the employees of the yard. The vehicles that I often look for are often to close to each other to access certain parts. Almost 100% of the driveshafts in the truck yard are damaged by the forklift driver. This is something I would think someone might be interested in due to the price of a driveshaft? You might as well take the driveshaft off the price list?

What's better 5 Stars just because. Automatic warranty, they sale service whit out ask they are so rude.gate cost to expensive $300 dollars

Waited 20 minutes along 10 other customers to be checked out as we all watched 4 workers standing at the gate chit chatting or eyes glued to their phones.Makes no sense for an establishment to run a skeleton crew and not be cross trained in simple tasks as operating a cash register. Leaves you in a pickle as you already paid 5$ to get inside and arent allowed to leave without paying yet theres nobody to check you to pay and leaving the establishment is illegal. Seriously get your workers situated

Lack of customer service. No one helps you to check out. Entry fee prices are always different which is scetchy.

i’ve been meaning to leave a review. i went to the other location with a friend to sell a vehicle and noticed that all the workers were working really hard in the sun. they have empty water bottles every where but no water for their employees. i’m more then 100% sure it is a California law that the employer is responsible to supply their employees with water. very upsetting that these guys have to work in the scorching sun without water.

Got to Oceanside location at 4:40 and they didn’t let me in because the guy in the door said that he was all by himself self and this and that hours are from 8 to 5 hours does not say that last call is at 4:40 I didn’t see that on your web page!!!

Very small yard. Make sure you bring everything you need. They won't loan you tools. It's also $5 entry fee now.

Called to get a quote to sell a car. Was surprised to reach an outsourced call center instead of Pick your part directly. Communication was very difficult due to a strong accent, and I couldn't understand many of the numerous questions asked. Had to give up on the call without getting a quote. Suggest reviewing your phone support system for local inquiries.

Ask the person up front before wasting your time. A 16" wheel (rubber only is $35.99) a wheel with alloy rim is $94.00 (rim plus rubber) for a 2007 vehicle. There is no prices for rims on their site. Having it shipped off ebay for cheaper.

I’m giving it a two stars only because of the fact that when you call in, they don’t have their call centers in America and that is the worst thing in the world of Business can do. In my opinion. The parts are amazing. Any other thing about it is amazing but the fact that I can’t speak to somebody in America when I call, that’s a problem.

I used to live coming here but employees are jerks now , they must close for people to enter 30 minutes prior to the website and google times posted. I got their 13 minutes prior to 5pm just needing a battery which is next to the register and I was denied

Good prices and well organized yard. Fast and friendly staff. My only junkyard I go to for the past ten years straight now. Local and convenient. I recommend this place more than any other in San Diego county CA.

Worst experience I’ve ever had. I called them on Friday and they said they could pick up my car Sunday between 1pm and 3pm. I called at 3pm after no one had showed up and the guy told me they would for sure pick it up before closing at 5pm. I never got call apologizing or letting me know they couldn’t come. I wasted almost all my day waiting for them.

Been to the Oceanside location several times and never had a bad experience. Do your homework on parts pricing before you go. There are still bargains to be had in these lots.

Will not recommend this location. I just went there and the long haired guy tried to charge me $400 for a used valve bracket which is $200 brand new online, so I went to the riverside location and spent $25.00 for the exact part.

Nice place but sure has gone up in price, then again hasn't everything in Cali? The mini skid row out front is new to me, makes me sad that our country allows this cuz we are too busy sticking our noses into other countries business.

Worst experience ever. Paid 5 dollars a head to walk around and not find the parts we needed. Whatever that happens. But when we found some extras and wanted to check out the cashiers were on lunch and break with signs in the windows. Like you guys can't alternate your breaks? Make your customers wait up to an hour to buy some second-hand over priced merchandise? How the hell is this place still in business? Side note when you finally get to talk to the cashier these dirty used broken parts are twice as much as a new one online. Long gone are the charming days of going to the junkyard and finding what you need at a bargain price. F this place.

They've always done what they say they'll do. Mostly there are good parts for a car that's just messed up in other places that yours is already. My headliner sucked but my engine runs, they're Subarus had broken engines, and good headliners, so I got a new headliner. It worked out

The yard is very organized, but the prices are a little high. They got me on the warranty charge. Had I known about the option to decline I would have done so. Also the prices they charge are set non negotiable. They should charge on the condition of the parts.

I never post anything but with my experience today 9/15/2023 , I have to make this post publicly to help others. First of all just to enter the junkyard you have to pay a $3.00 fee, so I checked their website for a 2010 Toyota Corolla, which the website says they have 2 of the 2010 Toyota Corolla available a white one and a silver one. The white one shows heavily front end damage and the silver one shows in good shape to include the hood which is what I told them that I was looking for. So I was told where the car was located at which was correct but when I got there the silver Toyota Corolla had no front end at all so I took a picture of the car so that they could update their inventory and they refused to update their inventory, I was just trying to help them so that people going in would not be deceived but it seemed to me that that’s the way they trick or con people into paying for something that was probably taken off months or weeks before you get there so I was very disappointed by the scam that this place is running so if there’s a way to report this establishment to the better business bureau please help, I posted a picture so that you can see the complete front end and hood that in their website says that is there

Horrible experience!I went to the Oceanside location for a module I need for my truck. I went in, paid the admission fee and looked for and found the part I needed. Then I went to the cashier's window to pay for the part. No one was there to take my payment and when I asked if there was someone available I was told that the cashiers were on lunch and they'd be back in 45 minutes. I couldn't believe this! So I decided to leave the place and asked the guy at the entrance to refund me the admission fee. He said: "Sorry, we can't do that." What kind of business does this? This people have no regard for the customers that keep their business open and feeds their employees. As for me, this was the last time I set foot in this joint. This was robbery and a total waste of time. F#$@&* them!!

Last weekend I went there 2 days and spent $15 on entry fees for me and my buddies. The vehicles that they showed online in Oceanside said that the parts would match my vehicle. Come to find out neither one of the parts matched what I had and I tried to return both parts. So they give you 2 receipts a gate receipt and a window receipt and I was somehow missing one of them and they are identical receipts. Right now I am in battle with John from corporate in LA and waiting for his phone call so I can get my money back on the window receipt that I have. 3 days ago it was supposed to be turned into a manager and they were supposed to contact me. I had to call them once again and they said they were going to send out another email. As of today I still have the receipt for the part the sticker on the part and they will not refund my money as of today. Was on hold for 25 minutes to tell me that they were going to call John. John I guess is the district manager of California so we'll see if he returns my call. So the memorial of the story is, do not misplace your gate receipt because the regular employees stick to their protocol. John the district manager did get in touch with me and I did get a full refund today from the Oceanside wrecking yard. Martin is the one that handled my receipt and everybody was very polite at the front. Also if you know the part you are looking for, that will help out immensely before you get to the yard. I highly recommend LKQ in Oceanside.

Huge Place. NO PARTS REMOVAL BY STAFF. Sometimes A Guy is There You Can Hire. large Selection of Parts for Cars, Trucks & SUV's Mostly 10 to 25 Years Old. & Random Older Vehicle's. Great Place To Get Used Parts for Older Vehicle's.

Great place to find parts for your older vehicles if you don't mind them used, having to disassemble and find yourself. $3 entry fee, but parts are priced very reasonable. You should know what you're looking for and should be able to test on-site if needed. Although they do offer a 30 day guarantee and optional (for a price) 90 day I believe. I have found parts here for my vehicles that are a fraction of new or used from other dismantlers online or in house. Best to use their website to give your an idea if they have what you're looking for and vehicle location on the lot.

It's true, the woman at the cash counter hates life and as all about sharing that with you via her poor attitude. This dreamy place consists of mostly overpicked old jalopies and beater cars. You're lucky to find the car you're looking for, and even luckier if the part you need is still there. It's like an elephant graveyard out there. Yet, somehow, they've successfully made a business out of selling this third grade junk for very high prices. Two plastic air vents, two little weatherstrips and a light = $40? Nope. After trudging through the dirty, hot, and chemically saturated isles of dirt and sand between the rows of cars, and then pulling the parts yourself, I'd be willing too pay $10 for the lot. And no more. And this is all after you pay to enter. Just saying. Next time I'll be heading out of the city and east to the lands of scrapyards and junked cars. Where there is such thing as compitition, and where yards have the first dibs in fresh wrecks and newer selections.
