I've mostly come here if I'm in the area and I need oil filter. I used to purchase my motor oil at O'Reillys but it's about $10 cheaper at Home Depot. read more

I met Joe and his crew at their display at a community auto show and gathering at Nakayama Motorsports. Nice guys! I stopped by later in the week to get the car washed and for detailing supplies. Chemical Guys and Meguliar products are there and the right stuff. Helpful and friendly staff. read more

I came in here for some windshield wiper blades. As I started to look up the size I needed, a lady who worked there offered to look them up for me on her hand held pad. I only needed one, and the cheaper ones were not an option, so I got the Bosch brand. The place was pretty much empty, so the whole thing was only a few minutes, at least it seemed like that. Located in a small shopping center on Castro Valley Boulevard!! read more

I don't know how O'Reilly offers battery testing and installation -- but they do AND IT'S AN AWESOME SERVICE!!! I have a complicated BMW x5. The battery is in back and it's the size of 2 big batteries and looks like something at an IT server farm! Jerry at the Castro Valley O'Reilly's spent an hour testing, then removing, and finally replacing my battery. A dealer would have kept my car for 3 days and charged me $1500 or more to change the battery. Instead, I bought a new $300 battery and Jerry did a masterful job installing it. And all the while, he was patient, friendly, leaving me feel like my buddy was helping me fix my car. I was given world class service and I'm super grateful to Jerry and the O'Reilly team in Castro Valley! read more

Nice local store with great customer service. I came in a little panicked because my transmission light was on. I was able to get some immediate help reading the code for the problem and then I got a confidence boost and was told how easy the part would be to change on my own. Their help saved me a large mechanic bill and I was able to quickly take care of the problem with the part they had in stock. I really appreciated the help! They also have a good stock of windshield wipers so I always know I can grab a pair during the rainy season. This place rocks and I will always come back any time I need a part or some troubleshooting help. read more

iMarks the kindest, customer service orientated being in the world of O'Reilly s Auto parts! Not only did he smile and make it easy he helped and didn't ask for anything. Then he showed me how to clean my headlights so the new bulb would be more efficient! And he pointed out things I never noticed and got my stuck hood UNSTUCK!!! LOVE THIS PLACE because of excellent, sincere & knowledgeable Mark! THANK YOU! read more

The prices are really out of control. I had purchased some Bosch ceramic rear brake pads for my Accord for $26 plus tax from Amazon. They needed to be returned and I was in a rush, so I went to O'Reilly. $72 plus tax for the O'Reilly brand ceramic brake pads. If my car hadn't been up on a jack stand with the old pads already removed, I would have waited for a replacement from Amazon. I wouldn't mind paying maybe $10 more than online, but we're talking almost triple the cost. Quite a ripoff. Now you've been warned. read more

Even though the staff was busy, the person helping me was friendly and helpful! I can back within a couple of minutes since I needed to purchase a crescent-wrench for quick repair on my Harley. The same person who helped me earlier, reminded me that they have tools to lend for a quick repair. This lady was on her A game, I was able to replace my mirror without having to purchase another tool. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that parking was scarce. I had to park a little over 200 feet away. read more

These guys are the GOAT store, they install batteries, wipers and light bulbs. I only shop here!

If i could give 0 i would, sold me the wrong part 2 times. This means i had to go back and forth to the mechanic 3 times. Ridiculous service

Lauren is amazing ! She came and completely helped me replace my headlights on a 2007 Prius. It was pretty tricky and she stayed until everything was completely resolved. I wasn't expecting so much help and it really made my day. Thanks Lauren read more

Above and beyond service from Elias and Daisy! I came in to get a new gas cap and ended up getting my engine codes ran as well. They thoroughly went through all the codes and helped me realize I got overcharged / scammed by a mechanic!! 10/10 customer service and will always recommend O'Reilly. read more

Customer service really bad they don't know what they have in the store and they treat bad the customers I will never return to this place I had really bad experience feel sorry for them they lost a customer read more

Thank you Juanita & Scott for replacing my battery. Excellent service & much appreciated!

I decently moved into they area and started buy items at this particular auto part store. Everyone has been incredibly helpful. So far everything i've bought with them has been great. I had recently had to have my ac processor in my nissan replaced....part was good. Also, just today, I need a new battery installed, and they told me to come in and they would install it for me. Joe came and installed the new battery and was very pleasant to talk with. What you need to do is call a head of time to check for parts and/or to see if they have enough staff to handle what you need. So far so good. Much better than the O'Reilly's in Union City on Decoto.....they have idiots that work there, can't even change wipers correctly! Happy that at least this auto part store has good customer service....maybe just make sure you get the right people to help with your needs. read more

Best customer service ever I called in to change a battery here and they did it immediately. Thank you Dennis for your great customer service Best customer service ever I called in to change a battery and did it quickly do not go to San Leandro or Oakland. They will not help you out.!! read more

DO NOT PARK YOUR CAR at the shopping center near this store at night, I was watching a movie at the chabot theater with my friends and I parked my car at the shopping center, and came out my car was towed, and I find out it was a o'Reilly manager who called the tow. I shop at o'reilly once a while to get work done for my car, glad that I do not shop at this o'reilly. Thanks for towing my car. PS: there were other cars that were parking at that parking lot also!! read more

I went in to replace a burnt out tail light bulb. The gentleman who helped me was quite helpful and friendly. When I stated I was going to an auto shop to have the part installed, he stated he would install it for me as a complementary service. I left the store very grateful. read more

Lady behind the counter had no clue what she was talking about. Went in to buy fuel tubing by the foot, she insisted they didn't sell such a thing. Brief check of their website shows that yes, indeed they actually do, and they even have it in stock. read more

Usually the team here is pretty on point but to the lady with glasses working the pos today who would rather be on her phone during my transaction then actually giving customer service, if u don't like your job baby get a new one read more

Kalani was very patient and professional! I was so impressed by his excellent customer service and quick turnaround. What a pleasure to work with him. Good price on the new battery and great return policy too. read more

They were very nice, and helpful. They are stocked with parts and supplies. Customer service was great

Scotty the general manager is an absolute GEM! Tuesday He went above and beyond to help me fix my wrangler. My battery died and 4WP messed up my wiring to my battery and Scotty literally made it his mission to make sure we got my car up and running again. We shared a moment of friendship and I can't thank him enough for everything he did for me. Because of Him I was able to get to work, he didn't have to do everything he did but without hesitation came to the rescue. Thank you! read more

Great service. Emma even installed my new battery for me. Good value timely service.

Had another great experience at the Castro Valley O'Reilly. This time I came in for windshield wipers and an AC recharge kit. Mark was super helpful, spending extra time tracking down the wiper blade I needed in their inventory. He also installed them for me, then took some time to show me where the AC port is on my engine and to make sure I understood how to use the kit. All of this was done in a respectful and helpful way (no 'mansplaining'!) and affirmed my commitment as a customer. Thanks as always O'Reilly! read more

With this being the highest rated o'reilly's location near me I just don't understand how. BEYOND frustrated. So my fiancé had purchased two shocks about two months ago or less. Well we had lost the receipt. We called the location a week prior asking if we could still refund since we have the membership which actually keeps track of every receipt we should have had. Going In this morning for a refund. He calls me stating how they rejected his service of refund due to "not finding" the receipt in the system. On top of the fact that the two employees that work working had HORRIBLE customer service, rude & not accommodating what so ever! So I call back asking the names of the workers, well she didn't even give me her name or the other employee's and went on about how they weren't rude ect. Whatever her excuse may be. She said she did everything she could. But now I know how her customer service was with him just off the bat of the way she handled our phone conversation! However she answered the phone in the beginning and gave the name of Julia which later I found out was the manager. So I called another location, asking if they could see our transactions in every location, he stated yes. So I give him the name on file plus the item numbers to look up. HE FINDS THE RECEIPT IN LESS THEN TWO MINUTES!! How did he find it, but they couldn't? Doesn't make sense to me. So now I'm left with the question of why they denied our service? Why they couldn't just override the refund like the employee from the other location stated he could do? This use to be our go to location since I live on San Miguel. But now I have to drive to San Lorenzo due to the horrible experience you guys have given us today! read more

The guys that have helped me check my battery, put windshield wipers and select the right oil have always been very willing to go the extra mile to make sure I purchased the correct products and that it be installed properly. In various occasions throughout the years living in town they have either installed new wipers and even helped me change lightbulbs. On the other hand, I do take in consideration that Covid took a lots away from everywhere but these types services are most important to women who are limited in carrying heavy parts, installing a light bulb and changing wipers which neither of the young girls that worked at this store where unwilling to help on. Hence, When I asked for help with the right oil bottle or finding other products in store they had simply given me a aisle number and told me that I will see it. This is Not what an independent strong women do! We try hard and if we still don't know the shop we try even harder and do it with pride. I'm all in favor of females doing all types of job but recognizing that you Do Not like the job is important for everyone's then there are those girls who loves the tools, oil and gas to say the least . Overall experience with Castro Valley O'Reily has always been great and I will keep shopping here. Will not go to any other O'Reily. read more

Outstanding! Needed windshield wipers left and right on my 2009 Toyota. Clerk looked the number up & another store employee installed for me. Very tough getting the old ones off, I would have struggled. Wonderful customer service, O'Reillys, Castro Valley! read more

Lauren and Scotty helped me tonight. I mean they were a blessing. Lauren helping me pick out the best items to secure my bumper from flying off on the freeway. It was just great to have amazing people who want to help. Scotty helped me after he clocked out just to deliver excellent customer service. read more

We needed some shocks and Lauren was so helpful and responsive to our needs! She was so knowledgeable and even hooked us up with a mail in rebate. Awesome customer service! She's the best! read more

Terrible service I went in to make a return. The salesman couldn't have been less helpful. He barely recognized that I was standing in front of him. When he finally started working with me he was condescending. This person needs to be retrained. I am hesitant to shop here in the future. read more

Went in after my battery quit out on me in the parking lot. I got very lucky to have Scotty an associate help me change out my battery at the last minute. He was very knowledgeable and let me know what I could buy to prevent future acid build ups in my new battery. He even used a iron spoil to clean out the old build up that the old battery left behind. Such an amazing experience that made my battery dying out not feel so bad! Thank you! read more

I came in to get a car battery replacement as well as a key fob battery replacement. I received really great service. Both employees that I interacted with were very helpful and really spent to help me out read more

The battery died on my keyless entry fob and I couldn't start the car. I was near O'Reilly Auto Parts in Castro Valley, so I went in to see if they had batteries. It was fairly busy and the store manager served me. He opened the fob, inserted the new battery, and sent me on my way in less than five minutes. Great, friendly service! read more

Great service! The Manager was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and patient!! His competence made the experience so pleasant that I decided to spend a total of $75 (mirror, windshield wipers)instead of $3 for windshield wiper fluid that I had originally came in for. read more

I am a long time customer and almost everytime they are helpful and understanding. ******HOWEVER*****Absolutely DO NOT go to this location! I have NEVER been more disrespected in my life. I went in for a simple part when a woman named Kayla approached me in one of the aisles and questioned if i was done and ready to leave the store. She followed this with accusing me of stealing multiple products. Very confused, I asked what products she had seen. I confidently requested an answer about what she believed Was taken. I was holding my three products in my hands and damn near had my pocket sticking out of my pants showing they were empty. However she STILL was demanding I pay for items that were not in my possession at ANY TIME. I then noticed her walking into the back to double check security cameras only to find out that she was in the wrong. She then came back out while I made my purchases and had nothing to say as I left with my receipt in hand. As previously mentioned stay away from this location as well as the woman KAYLA!!!! EXTREMELY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL ! hope this saves someone the trip and future bad experiences. read more
