    Came here for an oil change ONLY!!!! of course they are upselling but the man named MARK at the front desk gave a total of $150 oil change and a few other things with a package. We were here from 1:15 until 4:20! Walked in to finally get paid and leave. MARK said it would be $350!!!! He tried lying to my sister that she didn’t ask about the price. When in fact I was right there listening to the whole phone call and asking questions myself. The only reason he fixed the price wasn’t because he felt bad for lying but because we were mad. Disgusting people and bad service. DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Especially don’t talk to mark!

    Worst auto experience ever. Replacing one tire and aligning it cost $500. They are slow and their prices are unreasonably high. Never go there for anything.

    I tried to post earlier and mistakenly gave a 1 Star. This was an error. I very highly rate my experiences here. I have had many oil changes and tire purchases over the years, and all my experiences have been great from start to finish, EVERYTIME. This past week, I had a headlight go out and the team did a great job of securing the best price for a replacement assembly and performed the replacement in a very timely and professional manner. I was very happy about the whole experience. I highly recommend using this location for all your needs. The team here is 5 stars in my opinion.

    I came to CarX after another shop accidentally broke off my oil dipstick during an oil change. CarX was able to get me in the same day, order a new part, and finish the service quickly. Nolan at CarX was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the whole process. I really appreciated how accommodating the team was in helping me get back on the road that same day. I had never been to CarX before—or even heard of it—but after this experience, I’ll definitely be recommending them to others!

    I called the number on the website and i thought i was speaking to the store directly but found out after arriving i was talking to some company call center. If you call the number on the site just press 2 to directly speak with the people working at the store, the ones who actually handle the scheduling. Tho there was some confusion with scheduling the appt the lady at the front still got me in for an oil change last minute and was nice about it. When it was done the man at the desk was very friendly and courteous. The mechanic was cool too when I spoke with him a bit. Nice staff, good service.
