Fantastic service! I called to this location this afternoon as I thought my splash guard had fallen off from getting my last oil change a few weeks prior(or so I thought). It turns out it was a common issue with Nissan and the piece had degraded over time. The tech I spoke to was kind and very helpful and suggested I go to the location closer to home so I didn’t drive too far if it turned out to be a bigger issue. He also spoke to the shop to let them know I was coming and communicated with them again before I left. This location is always excellent, helpful and not pushy. This tech didn’t argue with me and offered up immediate solutions. He could’ve easily debated, but he was truly solution oriented. I wish I had gotten his name because I’m beyond impressed with the service at both locations. I highly recommend this guys. I’ve been coming here for the last year or so and they are fantastic. Thank you!

Chauncey and the other two gentlemen that changed my oil for me were super quick, super down to earth dudes who got the job done and didn’t try to sell me on anything other than I came for. 10/10

I had an emergency whereby my skid plate fell off after an oil change the day prior at a different provider. Completely unrelated to Great Canadian Oil Change MacLeod Trail.
The team at the MacLeod Trail Great Canadian Oil Change were amazing. They inspected the issue, provided clear and concise direction, replaced the screws required and had me on my way.
I’ll support this business location and would encourage you to do the same.
Wonderful experience, thank you!!!!

I came in for a routine oil change and somehow left with a flat tire. The car had no issues when I arrived, so this was pretty frustrating and unexpected. An oil change should be quick and uneventful, but this turned into an inconvenience I now have to deal with on my own time. I hope management looks into how this happened and takes better care of customers’ vehicles in the future.
