    I’ve been going to this location since they opened and have never had an issue. Today I had to ask them to check my lights and check my tire pressure. These two steps are supposed to be part of the process. These guys are slipping. Beware.

    I am writing to express my deep concern and disappointment regarding a very distressing experience my children and I had after an oil change at your location on November 4. Only about ten minutes after leaving your shop, I noticed heavy white smoke coming from my car. Moments later, a warning appeared on the screen instructing me to pull over for safety reasons. My two young children were terrified. When I called your store, I was told to drive back, but after just one minute, the car completely shut down in the middle of the road. It was dark, cold, and I was alone with my children. My husband was out of the country, and we have no nearby family or friends to help. Later, one of your employees came and confirmed that too much oil had been added to my car. I had to send my frightened children home alone in an Uber while I waited over 40 minutes for a tow truck in the freezing cold. This experience caused us significant emotional distress, and my older son became sick the following day due to the stress and fear. I trusted Valvoline with our car’s safety, but this situation placed my family in real danger.

    They were quick with the service but made jokes about how much oil was in my engine, which caused some concern for me. I’m glad they provided other options for purchase though!

    I visited this location today for the first time, and if/when I'm in or near Gahanna whenever I need an oil change, I will definitely be back. CHRISSSY was the employee who helped me, and she was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, handling our interaction and her tasks with managerial confidence. She and the rest of the team were fast and efficient with both the oil change and rear differential service. Thank you, Chrisssy!

    The tech purposely reported the wrong current mileage for my vehicle. I explained what mileage to use and why. He said okay and when I get home he made up a mileage way higher just to be an ass. *my last experience at this same location, was my oil being 5 qts over filled and causing me engine issues ! Won’t be back a third.
