Poor management at this location. Pavlo treated staff disrespectfully in front of customers. Strong smoke smell while talking and constant pressure to buy extra services. Definitely not recommended.

Very unprofessional experience. The manager, Pavlo, spoke badly to employees in front of customers, which was uncomfortable to watch. Extremely pushy with sales and not welcoming at all. I won’t be coming back.

My recent visit for an oil change was deeply disappointing and reflected a significant lack of professional management.
The individual who identified himself as the manager (Pablo) demonstrated unprofessional conduct in both customer interaction and staff supervision. Despite my clear and repeated refusal of additional services, specifically the cabin and air filter replacement, I felt persistent pressure to proceed with unnecessary purchases.
Moreover, the manner in which he addressed his team—often in a raised and disrespectful tone—created an uncomfortable environment and suggested a lack of basic workplace professionalism.
Overall, the experience was marked by poor communication, inadequate customer respect, and ineffective leadership. Based on this encounter, I cannot recommend this location for automotive service.

Had an easy experience with my oil change, the guys where very informative with all my questions and I did not feel pressured into buying anything😀 they did offer many different services, when I said no, they said ok. No sales pressure at all. One thing they didn't offer was the synthetic oil filter although they did tell me if I wanted to for next time I could bring my own in and they'd use it. I'm definitely returning. Highly recommend.
