At first I was very happy with the Valvoline experience. The people were great. I checked my receipt where I found that my fluids had all been checked, including my brake fluid (Checked-OK). As I drove into my slightly inclined driveway, my "Low brake oil" light came on! I poured my own brake fluid into the reservoir, then drove back to Vavoline where I was told they don't bother to check brake oil because they're not allowed to service it. When I pointed to the receipt, I was told, sorry, but that's just included on every receipt even though they don't check it! REALLY? I believed I was in good hands at Vavoline, but now I know that's not true. As a 75-yr old woman, that's a hard lesson to learn. Needless to say, I will NOT be recommending your company in the future, and I'm considering writing a blog to warn others of this unsafe situation. Shame on your company for not checking the level of such a vital fluid. The least you could've done was WARN me that it was low so I could stop someplace to have it serviced correctly. Instead, your receipt said it was Checked - OK! I could easily have had an accident on the way home, in which case you would've been facing a lawsuit instead of this angry note. Again, SHAME ON YOU!

Kayne was cussing and complaining about how many cars pulling up and acting like he didn't want to be there. And they were really slow. One of the other guys was just hanging out in the office and leaving poor Abby to a whole truck by herself.
My husband had worked for about 10 years and he ran this location for the longest time and none of the people that worked with him acted like this. We were very disappointed and he was in disbelief how it was being run and the way the employees acted.
