O'Reilly Auto Parts allegedly texted marketing to phone numbers sitting on the National Do Not Call Registry, and now there's an $18.8 million settlement fund to mop up the claims. If your cell was on the list and O'Reilly still pinged you, you might be owed a small cash payment. File by September 28, 2026. The case is Bryan v. O'Reilly Automotive Inc. (Case No. 2026CH000016, filed in LaSalle County, Illinois). Plaintiff accused the auto-parts chain of violating the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (the law behind the National Do Not Call Registry) by texting registered numbers without consent. O'Reilly denies wrongdoing. It agreed to pay $18.8 million anyway. The eligibility rule is specific, and it turns on reassigned phone numbers. You qualify if your number had been on the National Do Not Call Registry for at least 30 days, and you got more than one text from (or on behalf of) O'Reilly within a 12-month window after that number was reassigned to you. One wrinkle worth checking: if you made a purchase from O'Reilly, online or in a store, in the 18 months before those texts, that history may cut against your eligibility. The payout is modest and capped. Each approved claimant is estimated to receive up to $22, but total payments are limited and split pro-rata based on how many valid claims come in, so the real figure could land lower. One claim per phone number. No proof of purchase required (you just submit the claim by September 28, 2026). The final approval hearing is set for November 5, 2026.

Who Was Eligible?

Who the settlement covered:

  • Your telephone number was registered on the National Do Not Call Registry for at least 30 days.
  • You received more than one text message from, or on behalf of, O'Reilly Automotive within a 12-month period after that phone number was reassigned to you.
  • You are a consumer in the United States (the settlement is nationwide).
  • Note: if you made an online or in-store purchase from O'Reilly in the 18 months before receiving the texts, that purchase history may affect your eligibility.
  • Only one claim per class member per telephone number will be approved.

How Much Did It Pay?

The $18.8 million fund pays approved claimants an estimated cash amount of up to $22 per person. That figure is not guaranteed: total payments are capped, and if a lot of valid claims come in, each award is reduced pro-rata, so you could receive less than $22. You can submit only one claim per telephone number. No proof of purchase is required to claim. Payments are issued after the court grants final approval of the settlement — the final approval hearing is scheduled for November 5, 2026 — and after any appeals are resolved.
