This is hands-down my favorite mechanic and oil service shop in the Valley. Being locally owned and operated is just the beginning. Every single person who works here is top notch. They're honest, efficient, incredibly knowledgeable, and they never try to upsell you or take advantage of you. They tell you exactly what your car needs, nothing more, nothing less and they get the job done quickly without sacrificing quality. I've recommended Lightning Lube to just about everyone I know on the East Side because they've earned my trust time and time again. If I could give them 100 out of 10 stars, I absolutely would.

After stellar Yelp reviews (4 plus) guided us to AMC, paid over $3000 (for a broken serpentine…read morebelt, AC belts, new radiator etc., with all parts warranted per AMC). Confident and relieved we'd found a "go to" mechanic in Phoenix, one month later the car began experiencing intermittent power steering outage issues. Our son (in college and alone far from home) immediately brought the car back in, but AMC essentially refused to pop the hood, or otherwise even look at the car "unless the driver could replicate the issue". Two weeks later power steering and AC completely failed on a busy highway (due to a leaking radiator hose that ultimately fried the alternator). Paid an additional $800.00 (plus towing) to a competitor to fix what AMC should've caught. Also, AMC hours are now M-Th and of course this emergency happened on a Friday. First time Yelp has led me astray. 9/9/2026 - Owner Gilberto immediately reached out on Yelp below apologizing and asking for submission of additional repairs documentation to handle the case "fairly". To be fair, I did not go into specifics of prior phone interactions with Gilberto - owner - after the car was first towed to AMC and the had to be retowed to another shop due to AMC's inability to handle after hours emergencies (eg., no closed parking, nor key drop or other available). While all calls with were professional and courteous, Gilberto was ultimately unhelpful and disappointing (leaving us with limited options). The fact that AMC refused to do anything after the car was brought in by our son (for scary warning signs similar to the original problems) just prior to a catastrophic (towable) failure on a busy roadway is what is unacceptable. Not saying AMC is a bad business, they just really blew it. For minor car maintenance (oil changes and tire repairs) AMC is probably great. For major car repairs go elsewhere in the valley, please.

Definitely a mixed bag with this place. I've been twice…read more The first visit went smoothly. I had read reviews saying they try to upsell unnecessary services, so since I had just changed my air filter the week before, I was ready to push back if they tried to sell me a new one. To their credit, the tech checked it and told me it didn't need replacing, which was a nice surprise. The oil change itself was quick, hassle-free, and I only waited about 10 minutes before getting into the bay. The second visit also seemed fine at first. The oil change was fast, there was no major upsell pressure, and I left without any obvious issues. But about two days later, I noticed my heat shield was dragging on the ground while I was driving, which was not great. That stood out because I've never had a problem with the heat shield before. On my car, the heat shield has to be loosened or removed to access the oil drain area. I can't say for certain that Take 5 forgot to reinstall it or put it back incorrectly, because I can't prove that. But when a part that had never given me trouble suddenly comes loose right after an oil change where it had to be handled, that connection is pretty hard to ignore. You obviously can't have a dragging piece of metal potentially rip off while driving and damage another car or hurt someone, so I needed to have this fixed immediately. This was a pretty massive inconvenience, as I had to drop what I was doing (going to work) to swing by the dealership to have them fix the issue. Overall, I probably won't be back and will stick to going to the dealership for oil changes moving forward, strictly for peace of mind, knowing that the dealership exclusively handles my make. However, on a positive note, I will say that the convenience of not having to get out of your car and getting in and out with brand new oil in under an hour is hard to beat.
