    Went for a tire rotation, tires were installed wrong and caused my steering wheel to shake aggressively. Went back and they fixed that issue, but now I have all kinds of check engine lights on for “AVS, Trailer Stability, and SH-AWD” which I did not have on before my tire rotation. The mechanic did inform me I was low on oil and filled that up for me which was appreciated, but I left with more problems then I had going in. Frustrating.

    I have used this location before. I pulled up today in the garage door was open parked my truck and three guys ignored me for several minutes while I stood outside of my truck and outside the garage waiting for someone to acknowledge me. I had my keys in my hand, and when one of the technicians came close enough to notice me, I took a step toward him to hand him my keys. He very rudely exclaimed do not step in here. You are not allowed! You can go wait in the lobby. I did not want to drop my key off and leave my truck for them to work on because the last time I was in there they took the screws out of my Air filter housing and did not replace them. This caused my vehicle to throw an air filter code which I cannot reset. I went to the dealer and purchased six dollar screws to re-close the air filter housing and I didn’t want Jiffy Lube to lose the screws again or even touch my air filter. hi went to the lobby and waited and just as I suspected no one came in to talk to me about what oil I wanted if I wanted any other fluid levels topped off or any other services. I actually did want the windshield wipers changed but was given no opportunity to ask. The same gentleman who kicked me off to the lobby came in to process my bill. I asked if he could help me and explain the Pryor situation with the air filter. He replied 1 minute and walked back into the shop area. My truck was no longer in the shop so when he returned to the truck, I walked out to observe what he was doing to see if I would be able to reset the code if it ever happened again. He very rudely told me to go back in the building and stay away from him and exclaimed that his test equipment cost $400! I wasn’t sure what the implication was , but I did not crowd him and I stood by the building waiting. When he returned to process my bill, I asked him what he meant by telling me to get away from him. He said I don’t like people to watch me work when people watch me work it makes technicians nervous . I replied work all day in front of windows where everyone watches you work are you sure that’s what your implication was instead of answering he told me code could be reset with his equipment and I would have to take the truck to the dealer. I asked him what the process was , and how I would be refunded for the cost of whatever needed to be done since the problem was created by Jiffy Lube. He again refused to answer the question one more time. I asked him what he meant by telling me to get away from his test equipment to which he currently dismissed me. I replied to him you are at risk of losing a business with 18 fleet vehicles in it to which he replied I don’t need your 18 vehicles. I smiled and said this is an interesting way to run a service business and you just did lose any future business from me or my business. Horrific customer service and questionable technical abilities at this location. UPDATE: I spoke with the owner who assured me this type of customer service is not how they do things. He is taking care of the issues. Thank you JC

How long does an oil change take at Jiffy Lube?

An oil change at Jiffy Lube could take 15 minutes or less, that's from the time we start your service, and the hood of your vehicle goes up, to when we've completed the service, and the hood goes down! Jiffy Lube pioneered the quick lube industry, and we are geared to handle oil changes for all types of vehicles. We also know that finding the time to get your car serviced is tough, so if you decide to complete a few of your other vehicle needs while visiting us, like a new cabin or engine air filter, tire rotation, or new windshield wipers, this could add additional time to your service. Finally, wait times can vary depending on the time of your visit and location of your service
