    Very disappointed this place has really gone downhill since my last visit. Not what I expected at all!

    Curtis and his team did an excellent job with my oil change. Very friendly and knowledgeable on top of a quick service. Would definitely recommend going for your next oil change.

    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.

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
