Alternator went out Saturday night before Easter while driving the long way from Seattle to Southern California, thankfully in Madras.
Celso happened to come to Oreillys Easter morning to get parts for his daughter’s car and saw me working in the parking lot. Asked if I needed help and I showed him the problems I was having getting the old alternator out. He helped me get a very difficult bolt out and then stopped by again after doing his daughter’s brakes to help me finish putting it back together.
Greatly appreciate him and I’ll be back some time if even just in passing.

This is a wonderful shop to take any car to!! We were quoted for what we thought was our alternator and it turned out to be a serpentine belt. He was honest, got the job done QUICKLY, and gave us a great deal!! Couldn’t be any happier with this shop, truly honest hard working guys there!
