Gabriel was super nice. He helped me drive my car in, showed me the dip stick of oil showing it was topped off. And he was just generally nice. Said bye and helped me to drive off.
There was also a girl thst has been working there for over a year. She was great too.

Great fun people. Know what they are doing and do it with a smile. Very informative and took the time to explain. I give them 10+. Will recommend to all friends and anyone else who wants to know where to get their oil changed and with great service.

Visited on a Sunday morning. Service was timely and complete. Staff was aware of the proper oil for my vehicle. They serviced my vehicle in a clean, prompt manner.

The overall attitude and professionalism of this garage was lacking in a lot of ways. Staff did not seem to care much about the service they were providing. Greeted with - what’s your mileage. No hello! No hi, how may I help you?? Geez!
Crappy Attitude, people yawning, on their cell phones, bantering back and forth about things unrelated to the business and barely looking over my engine.
I don’t think they even took my air filter out to look at it but yet it was “fine”.
I wish the guys worked as hard in providing good customer service as they did flirting with the one female employee that works there. The overall attitude was horrible with staff bantering back and forth, arguing about unrelated business things
I watched as the guy told the people in the bay next to us that her air filter could just be cleaned. He proceeded to bang the air filter against the inside of the garbage can. Cleaning an air filter does not entail smacking it on the inside of a garbage can. I mean at least use some air on it and try not to damage the filter.
I think you need a grown adult to take over managing that place. One that instills pride and work ethic in their people. Not a good look for Valvoline.
Guess it’s back to Jiffy Lube. At least they vacuum your car, check the air in your tires, have popcorn and pretend to care. 🙄
