Quick even though they were very busy. Oil changes brake jobs and probably $40 less per hour for labor than your regular mechanic. It is so tough to find a good mechanic these days. If you have a newer car the dealer is the best option as they see many of the same kind of car and they are the experts. If your car is older - its a toss up... I took my SuperTaurus to the Ford dealer and they said none of our mechanics are old enough to own the tools to work on that.... I've probably tried so many different places and I was impressed with the people working here. They were competent and hard working and there was no useless middleman service writer in sight. Service advisors - i think sometimes they have a time and place - but it can be frustrating not being able to speak with the mechanic directly. To get simple wants or needs to the ears of the mechanic can become a game of telephone. Only odd thing I noticed is that you enter through a gas station which can be hard to find. It is a one way driveway and exit only from the main road. Parking is limited. Call first to see if they are busy. First in first served policy. read more

Jiffy Lube has upgraded their service. I went there today and the service was great. The manager help with my request and also gave me a discount for being a long time customer. If you are fortunate enough to have the manager or the young black lady (she's a mechanic) that works there service your car, you will be happy as well as satisfied with their work. The other guys are knowledgeable about car care as well. Upgrading my last review: Check JIFFY LUBE out, their prices are fair and the service is great. read more

I went in for oil change. They changed filter in glove box and another that I don't know name of as well as oil. The next day as. I was driving home to Long Beach CA, I opened glove box and realized it was hanging half off and it fell off completely after I tried to close it. They didn't tell me they broke it and I couldn't go back obviously. I am so pissed. The glove box is in the trunk now. DO NOT use JIFFY LUBE. read more

Worst mechanic I've ever had in my life. Please stay far away from anything but an oil change here. After Jiffy Lube installed new pads and rotors on my vehicle, I had an inspection done a few months later by another reputable mechanic. They said incorrect sizes on the front and suggested I go back to Jiffy Lube to have them replace it. The mechanic is a rude, arrogant, stubborn human who is not knowledgeable in his trade. He refused to compare the specs of the parts that were originally installed by Jiffy Lube with OEM spec of the vehicle. He instead insisted it was that my brakes need bled. He "bled" the brakes and came out worse than when I brought it in. Taking my car to the dealership now after wasting my morning. Again, DO NOT LET THIS MECHANIC TOUCH YOUR VEHICLE. UPDATE: SUBARU CONFIRMED THAT THE INCORRECT SIZES WERE INSTALLED. The Jiffy Lube mechanic lied and said he checked that sizes were correct the last time we were in. This negligence could have caused irreparable damage to my vehicle and potentially is life threatening in the event of failure. I warn all that go in here. Please be cautious of who you go to for vehicle repairs and maintenance. Recommend getting critical work done only from a reputable mechanic or dealership. read more

They were busy,had a little waiting time but the customer service by Raushanah was really nice and helpful. Will definitely be back. read more

Lester held it down. 10/10 would recommend. 0 complaints, they were busy but made it happen. read more

Quick and easy. I show up early, and get out super fast. The employees make it quick and easy.

Lester is great at his job! What a fun personality. He's the perfect person to be the greeter. Even though I had to wait, because he was so engaging, I wouldn't leave and do it another time. Raushanah is a treasure also. First time I have seen a woman working at Jiffy Lube. Steven honored my coupon, and I was out quicker than they quoted. I recommend this location. read more

During regular oil change, they knocked piece loose under car and I had to go back to get it fixed. Most of staff were uncommunicative, and one was rude. No manager on site. read more

Review: I had a great experience during my recent visit to Jiffy Lube on University. The staff was professional, attentive, and well-informed from start to finish. Raushanah in particular was outstanding. She was polite, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. I appreciated how she provided practical tips for maintaining an older car--especially regarding oil condition and usage patterns. She helped me better understand when a change is truly necessary based on how the vehicle is driven, not just mileage. While fully respecting company protocols, she still found a way to offer thoughtful, personalized guidance that helped me make informed decisions. She also coordinated support with the team she worked with smoothly when needed, and maintained a calm, respectful presence throughout. It's clear she values both the customer and the quality of her work. Overall, a very positive visit. I'd recommend this location for anyone looking for thorough, honest service. One star takeaway just because the manager just because the manager seemed more observant than approachable a bit more customer facing engagement would make the team more well-rounded. read more

I go to Jiffy Lube for a quick easy and friendly service. This was my first time at this particular location as I had just moved to Northern California. The service was abysmal. The mechanic who worked on my car was incredibly disrespectful and mean. I called him out on. It asked him why he was being so mean to me when I hadn't done anything to him, but be kind. I guess he felt shame because at that point he became silent. I don't understand the point in treating a customer in the way that he treated me I literally drove and told him what I need to help with ask some questions said please and thank you, and he decides to talk trash about me under his breath. I guess he didn't think that I could hear him. read more

Today I had my Promaster van serviced by 2 different places with 2 completely different results. Jiffy Lube took in my large Promaster Axion Van with no problem and checked the lights and the tires and the liquid and changed the oil. At the same time they washed the windows and vacuumed the van. All with a smile. I will rely on Jiffy Lube in the future. The Dodge dealership in Richmond did the opposite. They even commented the oil was low and dark but would not change it or too it off. Hence the Jiffy Lube stop. Who would guess Jiffy Lube would be better than the dealer? read more

Jiffy Lube - Vans have cute little hoods at Jiffy Lube. - Auto Repair Near Me - Berkeley, California

Jiffy Lube is quite expensive for an oil change and a tire rotation but they are always quick and pleasant. I always try to arrive a 5-10 minutes before they open as I heard that the wait is quite long later in the day. For a full-synthetic oil change and a tire rotation cost about $129.39 even after a discount on their website ($16 off an oil change). Tips: Most of the time, you can get an oil top-off within 3 months if it is printed on your receipt; the website always has some form of coupon/discount so look before or even when paying! I like coming here because it is convenient, reliable, and close by but you can definitely find cheaper places elsewhere. read more

I came with my car for a quick oil change. The man I spoke with was kind and very helpful. A day after my service, l than 70 miles later, my car started throwing error codes. THEY FORGOT TO REPLACE THE GASKET. My engine could have been done for if it wasn't for quick service from another shop helping me out. I don't recommend taking the chance. I figured that some of these reviews were unfortunate accidents but I will not be going to this jiffy lube again. read more

Guided me in incorrectly, made me scrape my car. They were able to get most of the scratches off, but then the next day my oil plate was dragging and improperly secured. Not very satisfied, and they couldn't fine where to rotate my tires. read more

Went in for a simple oil change, they tried to up charge me on the oil because they "didn't have my oil type" (Honda accord) so I had to go to the nearest auto zone to purchase my oil. After I leave this jiffy lube I drive about 40 miles and ALL of my dashboard lights come on! This is a brand new '23 car with less than 30k miles ,.... They definitely did something to my car to where now I have to go to a mechanic read more

The tech snapped off a lug nut during a routine tire rotation. They handed me the lug nut and told me to go to a tire repair. And that was it, no apology, no real explanation, no compensation. I called the manager and got the "it was the person before us" story which is unlikely. Turns out they do lug nut repair (the technician didn't know?), but they would charge me full price. As someone else mentioned, Jiffy Lube is expensive - turns out the dealer matches their price, so I won't be returning. Would rather go somewhere run by adults who take responsibility for their mistakes. read more

Jiffy Lube - For your amusement, the sheered off bolt. - Auto Repair Near Me - Berkeley, California

Great service and friendly staff! Would recommend! Very quick and convenient. They even washed my windows.

Brought my work truck in for a quick oil change on the fleet program. Dean and Doug were there to help me out. They were knowledgeable of their job and took care of the paperwork fast and changed my oil even faster (thanks anon underground). I really appreciated the courtesy positive energy from the crew. All of the customers were in and out and seemed like everybody was in a good mood. The only thing I'd want to mention about this place is the location right off of university Ave can get really busy and the angle on the entrance to the doors is really sharp. You gotta hold your breath pulling in with a larger vehicle..lol. just something to note for you read more

I needed a basic oil change, and I got a basic oil change. I also paid for a few extra services that were never offered to me. Over $100 for an oil change (this was after the website coupon) seemed like a lot, but I understand, times are hard. When they saw me rolling up in my 2010 Toyota, they probably assumed that I was some kind of wealthy trust fund kid. It happens all the time. I didn't see my bill until after I had paid, but there were a lot of things added to the bill that I apparently declined. They charged me for vacuuming the inside of my car and cleaning my windows. They never offered these services (I would have said yes), but they seem to have been added to my bill. read more

Jiffy Lube - They never offered me these services, but charged me for them. It feels really underhanded. - Auto Repair Near Me - Berkeley, California

I have come here for years when it was a pleasure but now things are so different that I decide never to come again: One staff was smoking on the back and did not even bother to put off his cigarette when I drove in. The second staff appeared to be teaching a third guy. He gave me unclear instructions, so I asked him to clarify. He then turned to his apprentice and said, "if anyone argues just refuse them our service." I heard that so explained I was not sure what to do. I need to clarify. He gave me other "instructions", abruptly and condescendingly. While I fumbled to follow and declared "give me a moment. This is my wife's car. I need to figure where to pop the hood...", and he repeated, "if he argues one more time, we can refuse him our service". I have tried to be polite, and clear, about what I could not understand, and it just made me feel that there was this power-dynamic to show "who is in charge". Enough. I did not come for this, so I told them to let me leave. I wonder where have all the other staff gone. These guys are new and need basic training about what "service" is. This whole new staff appeared to be chasing customers away, not welcoming them. read more

A rating of "1" might be a bit high. Anything but jiffy. I drive a Honda CRV, nothing exotic. Oil change took over an hour after my car was in the bay. The entire operation seemed sketchy. They poured oil from a bucket through a funnel to refill the car oil reservoir. They did not vacuum, clean windows or anything beyond the oil change. They failed to properly replace the skid plate under the engine so that 40 miles down the interstate it dropped and started dragging on the concrete. Fortunately I was able to get it repaired. Get your oil changed anywhere else! read more

I just bought a used car, and Thamma and his team sprung I to action to make sure my car was ready for the rainy season ahead. They informed me that I needed new tires as I was totally unaware and men a few other things as well making sure my car was prepared for a long and prosperous life. Thank you so much! read more

They were done with my car within 15min. Oil change and tire rotation. The guys were super nice and fast and awesome. Will never go to oil changers, those dudes were terrible and I'm so happy I left oil changers to come here. Price felt high, but whatevs, worth it! read more

My car needs 5.8 quarts oil, the mechanic who worked on my car dumped all the oil (about 8 quarts) I brought into the engine right in front of me. I immediately questioned him, and he lied by saying "don't worry, I measured". Next morning I checked my dip stick when the engine was cold, the oil level was half inch above the upper limit. Apparently, these people don't give a damn about their customers' properties. read more

Jiffy Lube - Put too much oil! - Auto Repair Near Me - Berkeley, California

I am a new Jiffy Lube user so did not know anything about a different levels of service. I came in asking for an oil change for my Toyota Prius. No one talk to me about levels of service for oil changes. I assumed I was getting a basic oil change. A man showed me air filters from my car. One had leaves and dust on it while the other was fairly clean. I told him I would replace the dirtier one and not the other one. When I got my bill, I was charged for a super oil change at $109 as opposed to the basic oil change for $54. I was charged for the replacement of two oil filters even though I had had not asked for the second one. When I complained, the cashier told me he would take $24 off my bill. That left me paying five dollars for the oil filter I had not asked for. I and he apologized for no one talking to me about what kind of oil change as I wanted, but that was water under the bridge. He offered to take out the new oil filter and rummage in the garbage can for my old oil filter. In Exasperation I said, "let it be". But I will think twice about using this Jiffy Lube again. read more

Worst lube-shop experience I've encountered. I had waited for the associate for about 5 minutes and he didn't acknowledge me at all. This is despite that there was an empty bay. After waiting and didn't receive any direction (there are no signs or instructions) I left. I did not feel comfortable driving over the bay as I did not want to compromise the safety of anyone at the establishment. I will follow this message through with my colleagues. Much better places to get quality service for your vehicle. read more

I drove in, worried that my tire was flat. The guys here were courteous and helped me figure out my options. I didn't catch the gentleman's name, but thank you so much for filling my tire with air and directing me to where I can get my tire patched up. read more

I've been going to this Jiffy for the past year and had nothing but exceptional service! Today I came in for a standard oil change and I was literally here for 8 minutes. I hardly had time to sit down and listen to the Coronavirus news before they said it's all done. Huge shoutout to Ashley for hooking it up. She was very friendly, professional, and answered all my questions. All oil changes come with a vacuum and window cleaning, which is good news for me because I hardly drive my dusty-ass car. read more

Our oil change took over 2hrs: when we arrived, only one bay was in use and we were the 3rd car in line. After about half an hour they opened the other two bays and then we were waiting in the bay for over an hour with no AC and 5 or 6 guys just milling about like they had nothing to do. It was honestly bizarre in addition to being hot, sweaty, and taking for fucking ever. And then of course it cost way more than we anticipated. Even with the $20 off coupon we had (and was ultimately the reason we went, our mistake). We'll be going somewhere else in the future. read more

I came here in September to get oil change and they put the plug wrong and I had to come back here three times to get it fixed and they still charged full amount for the job. They don't care about their mistake and customer. Take your car somewhere else where they will take care of you. I am so mad that I had to come back here three times for the mistake they made. It's not acceptable. read more

DO NOT GO, they will take advantage of you if you do not know much about cars. I went in thinking I needed a new battery, they tested, I heard the employee Dino say it was not recommending a new battery and I heard the manager say "Well she wants it." I asked them what they were saying and he said if we were making sure we have the right battery in stock. I told them I no longer wanted a battery and they still asked if I wanted a service. Very bad and predatory business model, please be cautious. read more

One person is so rude. I almost just drove off. Don't bother coming here. They didn't have anything I needed.

5.8.20 With uncertainty regarding how's businesses will maintain compliance with public health safety recommendations, rest assure your mind will be at ease while your car is being serviced by this location...hands down Ashley and the team (Neville & Preston) are EXCELLENT!!! Quick services, maintained all safety and social distancing recommendations, great sense of humor, amazing customer service and quality car service...this is DEFINITELY the location to have your car serviced. Talk about EXCELLENT customer service!!!! I was in and out quickly which is important to me because I'm always on the go...Nevelle remembered me from my last visit, Romero took time explaining brake fluid needs and Ashley was awesome with explaining the difference between needing a full oil change and being topped off, she got me in and out in records read more

This location has great customer service. They know what's best for your car and tell you in a really nice way. Better customer service than the mill valley location. Good prices too read more

Fast and reliable. I realized I needed an oil change and service the day before a trip. They were able to take me right away and had me in and out in under an hour! They didn't try to upsell and their prices were less than the dealer. Very courteous mechanics too. Opened doors, kept me informed throughout the process, and even joked around! 5/5 read more

Fool me twice, shame on me. I had my fleet vehicle serviced here 3 months ago and they added several services without consulting me. When I was presented with a bill for over $200 for an oil change I inquired why the took it upon themselves to install a cabin filter, air filter and some other misc service. They said it is covered by my fleet plan. That isn't the point. I should have been consulted first. I was assured by the manager it would never happen again. Well it happened again today, there was a different manager on duty which tells me this was not an isolated experience, it is how they do business. I will never come to this location or any other Jiffy Lube again!!! read more

Wow. Not just quick sercive but they rotated my tires, changed all 3 of my blades, changed the air filter. 20 minutes in and out. Awesome. I will be back. read more

Jiffy Lube - My official A OK. - Auto Repair Near Me - Berkeley, California

Never coming back to this place, they discriminated me today just because I was doing an Uber inspection, I got there waited to be seeing then one of Jiffy's employee came to my car and asked me what kind of service I was there for when I said he put me to the back of the line. There was a lady behind me and he help her first. I was a client at this place. I'll never going to give business to them again. Uber inspection is paid they weren't doing me a favor. They had the three stations busy when I got there two of them got open and they put the lady in one of them and left the middle one one with no one, I had to wait until the third one was done to be helped. The lady left the station and I continued there waiting, very poor service. UBER DRIVERS IF YOU CAN PLEASE DONT GO TO THIS PLACE they will put you to back of the line. And also Uber ask for registration, driver license and insurance and they didn't ask for none of that. Watch out folks UBER INSPECTION IS A JOKE, just a wait to take money and say that they're doing something to protect riders. read more

1st & last time coming to this location. On October 11, 2021 I got a regular oil change & on November 3rd, 2021 my car is telling me I need oil at 1st I give benefit of the doubt I'm like wait that can't be right. I check the oil & it's gone. They didn't vacuum my car either idk why it says that they completed it. On a good note it does say free refills up to 3months thank God. I never had this problem with other jiffy lube locations not even out of state. I'm disappointed but I will just go to different location next time. Also don't get your windows cleaned here it leaves it a mess after they clean it. read more
