Extremely Disappointed and Concerned About Today's Service…read more I'm very upset with the service I received today at Valvoline. What should have been a routine oil change turned into a frustrating and concerning experience. A technician jammed an evac tube into my oil well in an attempt to drain the old oil -- a method I've never seen used before and clearly not the right one( Jamming the tube into my engine). I sat for 20 minutes before anyone even explained what was happening. The only reason I was told anything was because I walked over and asked why they were yanking under my hood. I ended up waiting for 2.5hours while they kept trying to remove the tube and pieces from my engine -- without giving me any proactive updates or clear explanation at all. Now, my car is disabled, and I'm stuck with no vehicle. It has to be towed to a mechanic because of their mistake. As a customer, it's incredibly disappointing not to be able to trust professionals with my vehicle. I expected basic communication, accountability, and care. Instead, I was left in the dark and now dealing with the consequences of careless service. This experience has completely shattered my trust in Valvoline.

I tried this auto shop on a Sunday after calling a week prior for an appointment. The fact that…read morethey are open on Sundays is a blessing. The waiting area is clean and the staff was professional. When I made my appointment it was Joe that scheduled me and when I arrived for my appointment it was Sade that checked me in. I didn't wait for my car but they completed the work as if I was there waiting on it. Upon completion they called to let me know that my car was ready. I had the state inspection, parking bulb replaced, headlight restoration, and windshield wipers replaced. I mentioned all of this to one of my neighbors and she mentioned that they are under new management As of right now, I say give them a try if you need a mechanic or inspection. Pricing seems fair and the team seems polite. (10/19/2025)

The pricing is worth the level of assurance I received, especially with the warranty and follow-up. I needed my vehicle turned around quickly, and they accommodated my timeline without cutting corners. What stood out most was that I never felt pressured at any point. Instead, they went out of their way in a respectful and professional manner to earn my business. As someone who usually wants a second opinion, I appreciated how they clearly explained what needed to be done, why, and showed proof of the work. They delivered exactly what I needed and got my vehicle back to me on time. I'll gladly continue to bring my business here moving forward.

Today, I visited the Jiffy Lube location at 13319 Occoquan Rd. Woodbridge, VA 22191, for an oil…read morechange. It was my first time at a Jiffy Lube period and was unaware of your service their service methods. After the service was performed, the manager refused to issue a hard copy receipt citing some green policy (seems more like a way to minimize overhead costs) which was not mentioned from the onset. The store manager insisted with providing only an electronic copy resulting in a needless back and forth that I must say was not up to an acceptable level of customer service. The manager apparently is under some misguided notion that he is not required to provide a hard copy invoice if requested. I tried to file a complaint with their corporate office but their intake system fails to upload the complaint for some odd reason. A little research for Jiffy Lube's benefit, please refer to the following state statute requiring the production of an invoice upon completion of work. Virginia Code § 59.1-207.5, part of the Automobile Repair Facilities Act, requires automobile repair facilities to provide customers with a detailed written invoice upon completion of repair work. This invoice must separately list the charges for parts and labor, identify which parts were supplied under warranty and which were not, and note any used, rebuilt, or reconditioned parts. The provision does not apply to work performed on a pre-advertised single price basis. Had I known it would've become an issue, I would not have provided an email address as my preference would have been a hard copy for my records. Needless to say, I would not consider Jiffy Lube for any future maintenance needs.

My daughter took my 2014 Honda CRV into this shop for "spongy" brake feel. The shop changed all…read morethe brakes and rotors, for over a $1,000, and the problem wasn't fixed. When I picked up the CRV, I noticed the brake feel was good for the first 1/2 mile as I drove away, but by the time I got home, the brake pressure was diminished and I had to pump the brakes to get adequate brake pressure. I called the shop and they said there wasn't anything they could do. I took the CRV to another shop, that quickly identified a bad Master Cylinder (leaking by internally) and fixed it for less than $500.

Extremely bad work and shoddy parts…read more I had them install new brakes in the summer of 2024. By the winter of 2025, the brakes were wobbling. Apparently the brakes they installed were faulty (the rotors warped), but they still charged be $200 to replace them even though they were still under warranty. That would be fine, I guess, if they had done a good job or used good parts the second time, but it's been 2 months and my brakes are grinding and slipping. Apparently, the pins, the rotors, the pin boots, the pads, and a few other parts are so low quality that they're falling apart already. At this point, I'm not trusting my car to these guys again. I took my car to the mechanic near my work in Fredericksburg and paid him $500 to just do the job correctly. I deeply regret not taking my car to him in the first place, as he would have done a good job, stood by his work, and I wouldn't be out $700 for bad work and bad parts. Do yourself a favor and go to a different mechanic.
