    If I could leave less than a single star I would have. The wait time was completely unacceptable. I had left work early to stop in and get an oil change before picking my child up from daycare. A 15 minute oil change was advertised and I ended up being there from 2:15 pm until 3.50 pm. This business needs to be cited for false advertising.

    Worst experience I’ve had at this location. Attempted to get an oil change typically it’s busy everyday and today Sunday wasn’t too bad. According to the guy I spoke with (which refused to give his name and refused to assist with the service) as I asked him for his name only said that “his name was on the door” (Keith Revette) the “manager” very rude and does not have any customer service skills definitely does not belong doing the job as he looked miserable assisting customers. I’ve come to this locating plenty of times never had this experience before never seen him before. However, I would NOT recommend this location moving forward. 1 bad experience springs a multitude of issues to come with this location. On the other hand the location in Latham the manager (Aiden Sulkey) has the proper manager skills to run a shop. Have not been at the location and the experience there totally changed my perspective on jiffy lube and the experience I had earlier in the day. Customer beware!!!

Frequently Asked Questions About Jiffy Lube

How much does an oil change cost at Jiffy Lube?

You can receive a personalized oil change quote from your local Jiffy Lube service center by visiting MyJiffyLube at https://jiffylube.com/get-an-estimate/get-started. This is the best way to get a quote because the cost of an oil change will vary based on your vehicle’s manufacturer recommendations for oil type and your vehicle’s engine oil capacity. Each Jiffy Lube service center is also independently owned and operated, and retail prices for products and services are determined at the local store level. You can also call your local store if you have additional questions.

How long does an oil change take at Jiffy Lube?

An oil change at Jiffy Lube could take 15 minutes or less, that's from the time we start your service, and the hood of your vehicle goes up, to when we've completed the service, and the hood goes down! Jiffy Lube pioneered the quick lube industry, and we are geared to handle oil changes for all types of vehicles. We also know that finding the time to get your car serviced is tough, so if you decide to complete a few of your other vehicle needs while visiting us, like a new cabin or engine air filter, tire rotation, or new windshield wipers, this could add additional time to your service. Finally, wait times can vary depending on the time of your visit and location of your service
