    Went to get my oil changed was 4th in line, greated fast and was given the option to stay in my car or in the lobby. I chose my car they were extremely slow after waiting about 45 minutes it was my turn, I was told to wait in the lobby, when I asked why since I watched 4 other people not have to wait in the lobby I was told not to have an attitude HE PREFERED it. I went into the lobby where the woman behind me was also told to wait. When I asked her if she was given the option she said no and she also found it odd. The same man came in and continued to keep on about having me wait in my car if I wanted. I told him I just wanted my oil changed but he continued I than told him I could just go somewhere else and didnt have to put up with this kind of service. As I left he kept telling me not to hit the woman's car that was behind mine. Like I was some kind of moron. I will never be back if that is the kind of service you thrive to have.

    One of the worst experiences today, that would be my last time to go there or any location. I asked for basic services, they end up charging me $102. I ask for $59 service instead. No star only negative experience no customer service at all…

    Service was great. Took about an hour overall once I pulled into the line but it was really nice weather and everyone was out getting the same thing done. Friendly folks - I’ve been here a few times with no issues. Thank you!

    Got me in a timely manner, even tho they were short handed. Left some oily rags in my car, but not a big deal, just a little smelly. Over all pleased and will use again if I need to get in quickly

Frequently Asked Questions About Jiffy Lube Oil Change

How much does an oil change cost at Jiffy Lube?

You can receive a personalized oil change quote from your local Jiffy Lube service center by visiting MyJiffyLube at https://jiffylube.com/get-an-estimate/get-started. This is the best way to get a quote because the cost of an oil change will vary based on your vehicle’s manufacturer recommendations for oil type and your vehicle’s engine oil capacity. Each Jiffy Lube service center is also independently owned and operated, and retail prices for products and services are determined at the local store level. You can also call your local store if you have additional questions.

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
