    Such a great experience all the guys who worked on my car were friendly and went above and beyond…read moreto make sure I was comfortable and informed the entire time. I didn't even have to get out of my car and was in and out within 30 minutes. They offered water, soda or coffee and did not try to upsell me at all but made recommendations. They also tried their best to give me the best deal and apply discounts. I got a free car wash which is awesome! Good to know that the car wash is not onsite it's actually at another location but nice freebie. I'll def be back!

    I was referred here by one of my coworkers. This was my first oil change here and they guys are…read moreinformative and they look like they all have fun coming to work and happy employees are important to me. I never know whats true or not. They bring me oil colors so I can see the difference between my dirty colors and the new vibrant colors I should have. So of course I want my car to run great so im saying yes to every new filter and yes to every new fluid but Im not a mechanic so im trusting them like I've trusted my last oil change place. There is a good energy here and I hope they are doing everything they say they are doing because this is my only vehicle and Im a single mom with 2 teenagers. Between the 3 of us we are constantly going to and from everywhere. So far im happy with the service but I still have 3 guys under my hood. The real test will be how well we do until our next inspection. Based off my experience so far I will be back =). FYI: I was a committed customer to Valvoline Express off of Dyer and Main in Santa Ana but they did something I didnt like during my last oil change. So the last time I was there left a great review but before I drove off the guy brings me a list of all the things they did to my car and the only thing I recognized was Replaced windshield wiper. I knew for a fact they replaced them. They guy apologized and replaced them but now how do I know what else "they forgot" to do?

    Hello everybody. This is a PSA to anyone thinking about coming here…read more This guy has an absolute lack of honesty and carelessness attitude towards his work. I had taken in my 2014 Lexus ES350 for a simple drain and fill. For context the vehicle has 130k miles and has had this service done 2 times and this was third. Vehicle has been maintained very well right. I had noticed the process was absurdly fast. I asked if he did all leveling procedures and ensure it was done the proper way. He assured me he tried and he's done this before by skipping these steps and it would make no difference. Keep in mind ive done this 2 other times and it can only be considered done with proper leveling. Anyways, I immediately notice super harsh shifting, erratic gear selecting, and a terrible jerk in the transmission. I had again called him and asked if he did the leveling procedure and if it was done correctly his response disregarded the need for a proper level because "this was his way of doing it". So I brought it to him to drive the vehicle, he had stated in verbatim "man these cars are terrible " "the transmission are known to go out by 60k & 80k miles" "yours is most likely on its way out". "It's the clutches not the fluid" "I am fairly experienced with this car and the and U660E. What he stated was absurd but there is always a possibility. So I took the car to the dealer for a mature vehicle inspection FROM LEXUS. my report had said the transmission was overfilled and would be 390$ to completely redo the service. I finally took action and had called to drain the excess fluid with a diagnostic tool and proper leveling procedure BUT BEFORE I NEEDED TO CONFIRM. I called the guy and asked if the leveling procedure was done and he said yes but it's not necessary. I finally got over the lying and mentioned I'd taken it to the dealer and they had mentioned it being overfilled and I said I don't want a fight I just need to know my next steps on how to solve this issue and I need honesty to correct whatever had been done. He finally admitted to having skipped the leveling procedure. Here is a picture of the amount of excess fluid. Absolutely terrible lack of honesty and complete carelessness in his service as a simple but tedious step which could have been avoided caused me to waste time and have to replace the fluid.

After…read moregetting my oil change, they initially missed a burnt-out left rear brake light because the back of my car was in direct sunlight. However, right as I was about to drive off, a worker spotted it. The service lead immediately let me know and offered a discount on the replacement bulb. Even though the shop was getting busy and the crew was working fast to handle the rush, they took the time to replace it quickly and professionally. Incredible customer service and a great, hardworking atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

    The last time I brought my vehicle to Valvoline for service, I had my tires rotated. At no point…read moredid the technicians inform me that my tires were severely worn on the inner edges. The wear was so bad that it created a serious safety concern and could have resulted in a tire failure or blowout while I was driving on the freeway. Because of that experience, during my most recent service I specifically asked the technician to check whether my tires were wearing on the inner edges. I was shocked when he told me that he doesn't do that. Afterward, I looked into Valvoline's policy and learned that tire inspections are not part of their service. I understand that now, but I think customers should be made aware of this especially when having their tires rotated. I had assumed that if a technician was removing and rotating my tires and noticed severe or potentially dangerous wear, they would bring it to my attention. If you need anything done involving your tires, I would NOT recommend coming here. Take your vehicle somewhere that actually inspects the condition and wear of your tires. Tires are a critical safety component, and severe inner edge wear can be difficult for the average driver to see. This is a huge safety concern for me. My tires were worn badly enough on the inside that I could have experienced a tire failure on the freeway, yet I left my previous service without anyone warning me. Customers should know that having their tires rotated at Valvoline does not necessarily mean their tires are being inspected for dangerous wear.
