    You should either close the door or put a good man in charge of reception and speak to people. This man here doesn't deserve to speak to people.

    Slowly and poorly. Been waiting for 3 hours. You would thought if you will wait for your vehicle 🚗 to be done. They will put a move on it.

    I went to this location for a state inspection. One of their workers told me it was going to be 2 hours wait. I told him that’s fine, I can wait. That was at 10:45AM. I waited 2 hours and still no sign that I was next. I imagine they were busy so I didn’t say anything. By 1:45pm, that was 3 hours, i went back to the same workers and ask when I was going to be seen and that I been waiting for 3 hours now. He said “they have to take a lunch break, they don’t do them that fast.” That is fine if they have to take a lunch break but I was told 2 hours and it has been 3 now. I then asked him how much longer then? And he said “one more hour or you can come back tomorrow.” So you are telling me I was going to wait 4 hours for an inspection when I was told 2? Never did the guy came up to me and said hey we are running a bit behind it might take a bit longer, etc. if I never asked, who knows how much longer. I left and definitely not coming back.

    Avoid this location. The technician confirmed there were no warning lights on the car before service, but the check engine light came on immediately after the oil change. When the issue was raised, the manager, Heather, was abrupt and dismissive, refusing to inspect the work for a possible cause.

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
