    after parking in their busy parking lot and walking over to the garage, I was completely ignored. Nobody came over to greet me ,just for a car to pull up all the way to them and they walked right over to the car window and guess what they wanted !? a state inspection, exactly what I was there for ..so they just got to jump right in front of me in line. Don’t waste your time. Horrible customer service.

    Took my fleet vehicle for oil change/service. Caleb and his crew were so friendly, welcoming, and got everything done in record time! Other locations will skip some of the tasks, but this crew is above and beyond. I’ll use them moving forward!

    They opened the coolant when the car was hot and it boiled all over the place. I was getting an oil change. The container is transparent. What were you thinking? Now I have to get it topped up and I missed my appointments today. Thanks!

    Very satisfied with the attention to detail with each task and the double check for each task. Associates were very friendly and communicated well with me. A different company left my oil drain plug loose one time and almost caused damage to my 6.2 l GMC Sierra Denali pick up. Since then I have been paranoid. I spoke with the associate at Valvoline and he explained the process was for one associate to initially reinstall the plug and use a torque wrench to set the tightness, and then for a different associate to go back and double check the tightness with the torque wrench a second time. Love it! As former military, I can assure that this level of attention to detail differentitates Valvoline from your competitiin. Keep up the great work and Thank You!

    A week after I had my oil changed here I was changing the idler pulley and drive belt when my wrench slipped. I crawled under the car to retrieve it and I looked up and noticed oil dripping down the side of my filter. I turned the filter and discovered that it had barely been threaded on. I checked my level and found that I’d gone from full to half full in a week’s time. My suggestion to the tech is maybe thread the filter all the way on. I would not trust my car to be serviced at this location again.
