Our Promise of Protection
Expanded Product Coverage at an All New Level
LKQ Corporation leads the alternative auto parts industry with the strongest warranty protection for recycled, aftermarket and remanufactured products. LKQ is committed to quality and backs recycled and aftermarket collision products with industry-leading warranties. In addition, aftermarket products undergo a multitude of internal and third-party testing and certification safeguards. The newly expanded Promise of Protection surpasses all other replacement part suppliers and continues to raise the bar in quality assurance. LKQ indemnifies licensed auto repair shops that purchase and install any LKQ recycled OEM, aftermarket or remanufactured product on private passenger vehicles, light/medium duty trucks and SUVs.
The groundbreaking LKQ Promise of Protection product liability indemnification means the auto repair shop owner is protected from claims, liabilities, actions and costs that might result in injury or death due to any defect in that product. Unprecedented in the auto parts industry, this product liability indemnification offers unparalleled peace of mind to business owners.
Product Liability Indemnification
LKQ Corporation (LKQ) hereby agrees to indemnify a licensed automotive repair shop (Repair Shop) that purchases a vehicle replacement product directly from LKQ (Product) and installs it on a private passenger vehicle against claims, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses relating to the death or injury of any person and the damage to any property (other than the Product, which is covered by its own warranty) directly and solely caused by a defect in the Product.
Tested and Certified by Top Third Party Organizations
LKQ parts are put through rigorous testing and independent third party certifications comparable to OEM manufacturers.
To further aftermarket part quality assurance, LKQ developed the KeysIQ program. Essential to insurance adjustor quality requirements and repair shop owner credibility, KeysIQ validates that collision parts are free from defects in material and workmanship and are functionally equivalent to the OE replacement part in respect to safety, crash performance, form, fit, finish, function, appearance, product life and corrosion resistance. All crash part types are either Certified Automotive Parts Association (CAPA), or third party approved, plus the LKQ team of Quality Assurance engineers continuously review parts for quality.
Promise to Our Customers
Further, LKQ audits approved suppliers annually, and all certified parts are entered into a KeysIQ product listing. Notably, parts are registered by invoice and can be tracked to the vehicle installation, and in the unlikely event it ever should be necessary, a product recall procedure is in place. All KeysIQ parts meet the quality requirements of major national insurance companies.
Additionally, third-party aftermarket parts certifier CAPA oversees the testing and inspection of nearly 10,000 LKQ aftermarket parts. CAPA Certification is an important validation for parts distributors, insurance adjustors, body shops and car owners. CAPA certified parts meet standards for fit, component materials, and corrosion resistance. The CAPA Quality Seal is placed only on products meeting CAPA’s strict quality requirements.
Our Promise
of Calibration
Expanded Product Coverage at an All New Level
LKQ Corporation has taken another bold step today providing customer peace of mind by introducing its Promise of Calibration. The Promise of Calibration states: “LKQ Corporation warrants that all recycled OEM, reconditioned OEM and KeysIQ parts purchased directly from LKQ and installed on a private passenger vehicle, are suitable for the calibration of appropriate ADAS components with properly operating systems.” Alternative replacement parts along with glass sold by LKQ companies are now additionally warranted to permit vehicle calibration on any ADAS equipped car, truck or SUV.
As an added benefit, LKQ provided further assurance by supplementing the Promise of Calibration to include the actual diagnostic and calibration labor operation. When performed by an LKQ Company (Elitek Vehicle Services) LKQ stands behind those calibration operations with full indemnification, providing industry stakeholders even greater confidence.

After your order is placed, all recycled auto body parts, including, but not limited to, sheet metal, doors, front ends, deck lids, hoods, etc. are cleaned and inspected one final time before being placed on the delivery truck.
Our employees are educated in the latest quality and safety regulations by receiving regular training in those areas. Employees in direct contact with customers provide valuable feedback for quality improvements.
