    I went there today to fix the number plates on my car, and Daniel was a very helpful gentleman. He was happy to assist me, and they didn’t charge anything for it. Excellent customer service.. really appreciate the help!

    Had my oil changed and asked the attendant what it would cost to replace a PCV valve. He said no charge. (It’s a 2 minute job to unscrew and screw in the new one in that I supplied). After he had the tube removed on the PCV, he asked his supervisor about replacing it. The supervisor said $15.00 because nothing is free. I told him leave it and I will do it myself. Well, I can thread one in myself for free. The supervisor had a real bad attitude and after I said I would do it myself, the oil change service went down hill. That’s all they did was the oil change. No other checks that are usually carried out. The service form had several items that they claimed they did. As an example, cabin filter check - you didn’t enter the car, how could you claim you checked it? Windshield washer fluid top up, I checked afterwards - not done, air filter checked, not done. And several other checks you claimed you completed. All because I decided not to give you $15.00 to screw in a new PCV. Just remember, falsifying records for checks you claim you did will not get my business back. You and your employee can whisper in the corner of the garage about how to screw the customer over but you’re not fooling anyone. I hope your manager holds you responsible for your bad attitude and poor service.

    We've always had fantastic service at Great Canadian Oil Change (Metral), and in particular, exceptional service with Luke. He is always very thorough, and is very personable. He has made recommendations to us that I have researched and found out that he really knows what he's talking about. I never feel rushed, and in fact, feel like he goes that extra mile, paying attention to both the customer and to their particular vehicle. Excellent service Luke !! 5/5
