“Last night I was driving from the DFW area, where I live, to western Oklahoma, where I’m from. Somewhere west of Wichita Falls, the lights on my vehicle began to flicker and the needle on my battery gauge began to behave erratically. I was able to limp along 20 miles or so to Vernon, which is where the closest motel was.
I woke up late this morning and went to this O’Reilly’s, expecting to buy a new alternator and then go to Walmart to buy a cheap socket set to replace it.
Well, it turns out that I’d bought the previous alternator at the Elk City O’Reilly’s in March, 2016. Ten years, one month, and at least 140,000 miles later, they honored their warranty and gave me a replacement for free. This particular O’Reilly’s also had a box of basic tools that they let me borrow from to replace it in their parking lot.
What an awesome company and store! I’ll never go to AutoZone again.”
