Once you have provided O’Reilly Auto Parts with the required customer information your warranty details are entered into the O’Reilly Auto Part’s national warranty database. If you need to return a product under warranty, please take it into any O’Reilly Auto Parts location or return it following the process described below. Limited warranties are made to the original purchaser only and are non-transferable. Most of O’Reilly Auto’s parts and accessories are covered by a limited warranty (“Limited Warranty”), but there are some exceptions and those exceptions are described in the product description. The length of the O’Reilly Auto Part’s Limited Warranty varies with each product and is designated in the product description.

Your Limited Warranty period begins on the date of purchase. We offer a one year part replacement warranty unless otherwise stated on your receipt. If your receipt states Limited Lifetime Warranty, we will warrant the original part as long as you own the vehicle on which the part was originally installed. Batteries have various warranty periods, some of which are a “pro-rated warranty”. Battery warranties do not cover freezing.
Battery Warranty
The warranty begins on the date of purchase and expires at the end of the warranty period stated on the receipt. Should the battery fail during the free replacement period, O'Reilly Auto Parts will replace it at no cost to the original purchaser. Any battery that fails as a result of misuse, abuse, low fluid level, freezing, improper installation or another faulty part are not covered by this warranty.
