    Update: refunded by Cash App 17 days later as the transaction was not a hold. Never returning! Shame I had to do this review but after a year of going here with no issues the new staff are the most dense people I’ve met. Bring back the old manager please! I requested 3 times “no filter changes as I do them myself” because apparently once is not enough. Then because they want to get someone in quicker they “cancelled” my payment (THEY DID NOT AND I AM DISPUTING AS WE SPEAK) to move me forward to get them in (even though I am paying how long can It take to finish? ) then re ran my payment and charged me twice. I explained that I was charged twice. The guy says no it’s a hold. I physically show him my transaction and how it is not pending prior to paying Again. I asked to speak to the manager because I want to know how long until the money returns to my account. Neither the employee Nor the manager can tell me how long before my money was returned. I will never be coming back.(except for my refund)

    The service reps are always friendly but professional. I have a rapport with them as I’ve been coming to this Valvoline for over 20 years. I wish the price was still the same as then! But I always use a coupon and that helps.

    I visited for a routine oil change, but during the process, the associate lowered the hood support bar in a way that scratched the hood of my vehicle. Immediately after noticing the damage, I contacted Valvoline customer care. I was placed on a three-way call with the store manager, who—before even reviewing a single photo—dismissed the incident by saying it “sounded like a rock” caused the damage. After I submitted photos and went in person to speak with Matt, I physically demonstrated to him how the bar lined up exactly with the scratch. He acknowledged this at the time and told me he would follow up with quality control by the end of the day. Later, I received another three-way call with Matt and customer service, only to be told my claim was denied because video footage supposedly showed no damage. When I requested to see the video, I was refused. To make matters worse, Matt contradicted what we had just reviewed in person, suddenly claiming the bar did not match, despite my clear demonstration. This behavior came across as evasive and dishonest. My car is brand new, and I know every detail of it. The damage aligns exactly with the hood bar, and I also have supporting video evidence of my own showing this. Instead of being treated fairly, I have been dismissed, gaslit, and denied transparency in the review process. Not only have you lost a LOYAL customer but youve tainted my entire experience of trusting a company with my money.
