    Service is good but I'm always astonished by how expensive it is for a full-size pickup.

    Survey Comment: The oil change itself went well, the price was much higher than expected. The problem was after they finished with the oil change and getting ready to send me out, I noticed the low tire air pressure light was still illuminated. I had to ask the employee if they checked the tire pressure? He said, “Oh, I was just getting ready to get that!” He then asked me if 35 lbs was good? Having no idea since the tires had always been filled with nitrogen and it was the first time the low pressure light had come on, so i said yes to 35PSI. Well he filled the tires to 35 PSI and prior to leaving, I noticed the low tire pressure light was still illuminated. I called the employee to my passenger side window and pointed out the light, and he said, “Oh, you need to drive it a bit to get the light to go off”! I was so frustrated I just left knowing the kid had lied to me! Once i got home, I noticed that the receipt that i received prior to them ever putting air in my tires said, tires checked to clearly stated 41 PSI? It also said oil service light reset? No it was not reset! I did that at home! Then it said lubrication “Not checked”? I had assumed that valvoline greased all lubrication, at least they used to? Now I’m worries about the if they put in the proper oil, the oil level, as I was billed $32.97 for extra oil? Finally i’m worried if they actually changed the oil filter or if they installed the proper oil filter!

    Very rude and uneducated!!!! I went to get an oil change and they denied my service because they can’t open my hood. The guy with the dreads is very rude!!! This is the first valvoline I’ve been to that had a problem opening my hood. If I can rate them a zero stars I would. I was already fishy about them changing my oil because of their age. They looked 15-20, definitely shouldn’t be working at an auto shop if they can’t do the bare minimum which is opening a hood. Will never go there again!!!

    Was in a week and a half ago got my oil, transmission and radiator serviced. They told me if I brought my own fluid they would do my transfer case and differentials. Today when I went in for those services they had me pull in started working on my vehicle and then told me that they could not input (customer supplied fluids) and wanted to charge me almost 400$ offering a measly 20% off on fluids I wasn’t even getting but still charging me for. After some discussion with the service advisor he came back and told me that the fouls a leak in my front differential a leak starting in my transfer case and was leaking coolant. I park my car inside my garage where there are no drops on my floor nor did they mention any leaks last week when they performed the other service doesn’t seem right if you ask me
