This was my first time coming here and the ladies were extremely nice. The tech, Ms. Zuri along with Kyle, Adriana, and Jose were amazing. Definitely returning since they explained everything really well.

Gave me the "multi-item" discount, then 30 MINUTES into their service they informed me that they could not complete the work because they did not have the right tools for my (GM) truck. Really? So I got scammed for way more $$$ and still didn't get all work completed. If you are looking for more than just oil change, buyer beware!

Pricey but quick oil changes. 3 stars because they tried to do the transmission service but were unable to after 30 minutes.

You know I usually have the best service here have been coming here for over 6 years with all my cars but today I had a bad experience. I got my oil changed yesterday 4/28 and I went home and it started leaking on my floor. I went back and they told me the person who did it didn t clean it that s why it is leaking. They also didn t put all the screws on my cover under my car so now my metal plate is bent and scraping and I have to go else wear to get that fixed.Service: Oil change

I have been going to this place for the last 10+ years yes I know it s changed ownership. Unfortunately, over the last 2-3 years the attention to detail has gone down. Today was the last time I will ever give them my business. They made a huge mistake and did very little to make things better. If they would have offered to provide even a stupid wash I would have let it go, but that wasn t the case.Service: Oil change

Great place if you need your vehicle serviced quick and don't want to get off your vehicle which I thought was convenient. I went in for a transmission service and my check engine light turned off. I also knew I needed that service as well wasn't just a random guess.

Warning Will strip your oil pan and will not fix it .I went in the morning my last visit 3rd time getting my oil change here when I didn't have time to do it myself they stripped my oil pan when it was perfectly fine and told me to get a new one very disappointed by lack of attention and negligence.they seemed unfocused most of the time.and my pan was fine last time I changed my oil. Can't recommend coming here ever

Very friendly service. They'll suggest to you for any other services that your vehicle may need, but never being pushy. If you are there for an oil change, you'll be out in 15 minutes or less.

This location is fairly new, but definitely on top of their game. Went to get my oil change on my lunch break and was in and out in less than 15 minutes. The quality is just as good as the North Davis location, but the wait time is a huge difference. I'll be using this location from here on out.Service: Oil changeService: Oil change

All in all it was a fast and easy service. However, I asked the technician to make sure to lube the chassie, and he told the pit man. I checked the steering and suspension the next day and they had only done four out of twelve fittings. The next time I come in, I will bring this up and see their responce. Not happy. This is not rocket science.Service: Oil change

I just went to my first Valvoline oil change and tire rotation service. They let you stay in your car while the servicemen actively work on your vehicle. The quality and professionalism employed was superb! I was in and out in 40 mins.Service: Oil changeService: Oil change

The average wait time from start to finish is about 25 minutes if all bays are full. If you get there and no one else is there wait time is less than 15 minutes.

Had nothing but good experiences at this oil change facility. The workers are so nice and friendly and they never suggest something unless you actually need it. They dont take advantage of you, especially if they know you are not too familiar with cars and oil changes. They dont over price their oil changes and make sure your car is at 100% before you leave and always have a smile on their face while they help you. Will only come here from now on to get my oil changed. Thanks guys!

Had my vehicle serviced here only to find out later that my oil drain plug was overtightened by their techs. Overpriced and bad quality service

Speedy, staff was nice, the only issue I have was the price. I don't recall it being so expensive for an oil change there, but it could be that is under a new name/management than before. Only had 5w-30, and for 10w-30 since I drive long distances, wanted something for that, but they just added the lower weight. No biggie, at least I have a new oil filter now.Edit: down 2 stars for 1 stripping my screw on my air intake, and 2 for not even telling me they striped it or that they replaced it. Now I have a pain in the butt screw to get out. You should really not use an impact drill on air intake screws.
