D&L Parts Company Data Breach Exposes Personal Information in 2026
On February 12, 2026, D&L Parts Company disclosed a data breach to federal authorities after detecting unauthorized access to sensitive personal information, including names and Social Security numbers. The company first identified suspicious activity in its network before launching a forensic investigation with external cybersecurity experts.
By January 9, 2026, the investigation confirmed that personal data had been accessed without authorization, though the exact method of compromise remains undisclosed. The breach was reported to the Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation, with at least one Massachusetts resident affected.
In response, D&L Parts notified impacted individuals and offered complimentary credit and CyberScan monitoring services through IDX for 12 or 24 months, depending on the case. The services include identity protection support, credit monitoring, and fraud detection, with no impact on credit scores or payment requirements. Affected individuals were instructed to activate the service via a notification letter.
The company also set up a dedicated toll-free response line (1-833-788-9712) staffed by professionals familiar with the incident and identity protection best practices. While the breach was described as limited in scope, D&L Parts advised affected individuals to monitor financial accounts and credit reports for suspicious activity.
