  I have been a customer here for more than 15 years. Clint, Brad and the entire crew are truly outstanding. I drive to Wisconsin several times a year but always get my services done at this Grease Monkey. My 2014 Honda runs like new with 140K. The crew does way more than oil changes too. Thanks for everything and your family business. Jon O Littleton

  I rarely write reviews—especially with six little kids and no time—but I feel compelled after two terrible experiences at the Alameda Grease Monkey, both involving the owner. Two months ago, I stopped in because my “engine oil low” light came on after only local driving. I’d had an oil top-off at another Grease Monkey just two months earlier, so it seemed surprising. The owner interrupted me multiple times, denied I’d ever been there (because it wasn’t in his system), and condescendingly blamed me for “not changing the oil often enough.” When I suggested there might be a leak, he dismissed it, insisted it was my fault for not changing my oil sooner, and “highly recommended” a full oil change—which I reluctantly agreed to. Today, my mom and I went back because the same issue happened again. He treated her just as rudely, claiming it was just “how the car burns oil,” and tried to upsell us on another oil change. When I asked for a simple top-off, he said he’d do it—but would charge $30 since I was 49 miles over the 3,000-mile free limit. My mom asked if he could waive the fee since he was the manager and I had just been there 2 months ago, and he corrected her that he was the owner and “couldn’t.” Never again. The good reviews must be from people who haven’t interacted with him or questioned his so-called expertise. I'm not sure if it was sexism or just pure egotism. After decades in business, you’d expect better professionalism and basic customer service. This location gives Grease Monkey a bad name.
