This was not completed in a jiffy. When I pulled up, I was the next car in line. It took nearly a half hour for them to even pull my car in. The car sat with the hood up for 20 minutes with no one near it. After an hour and 20 minutes I finally got my car back. This was while watching the workers doing mostly nothing but chat with each other.

Oil change was fine, but the facilities have deteriorated immensely. The waiting room was filthy and freezing, and you had an employee playing on the computer who could easily have cleaned the place. You've got another 5,000 miles to remedy this, or I'll find other business.
