Great customer service staff at this location they are very helpful You need oil change try this location read more

I almost gave it 4 stars but want to start cautiously as I had given a one and scathing review. I went in today and Matt honored his word on giving me an oil change for half price to make up for all the errors in my last visit. I guess I hesitate to give a higher rating as I am still a bit unsure about staff.....maybe they will improve with time, they are young. it used to be such a bustling place with previous owner and now it is empty basically, sigh. I really do wish them well and will bring chocolate chip cookies when I am next there....I want to encourage! read more

No upselling Giving me a paper receipt at the end. It was a big hassle to go back and get one since I was told they could not email it. read more

I came in for a basic oil change--specifically requested 5W-30, the standard service that typically runs around $60. Instead, I was met with a pushy upsell attempt from the cashier, who tried to move me to a high-mileage synthetic oil, nearly doubling the cost to $118. I had to insist, multiple times, just to get the service I originally requested. Even after agreeing to revert to the basic oil change price, the cashier couldn't help but throw in several snide remarks about the "cheap oil" I chose, implying my car "deserves better." It's simple: if a customer declines an upsell and requests a specific service, respect that. The dismissive attitude was unprofessional and unnecessary. To make matters worse, the signage in the lobby (and industry standard) outlines that topping off washer fluid and checking tire pressure are included. I specifically asked for both, despite them being posted on the wall as inclusive, and neither were performed. Why advertise services if you're not going to follow through? Oil changes and car service shops like this often thrive on predatory upselling, particularly when they sense a customer might be less informed. It's despicable and I don't take it lightly. I will not be returning to this location, and I've advised my Marin County network to explore the many better-run and more respectful alternatives in the area. read more

Jiffy Lube - Oil Change Stations Near Me - Mill Valley, California

They wanted me to buy more filters and stuff that my car didn't need Ask me for 100$ air filter for brouhaha one on amazing for 8$!!!!!!!! Beware of update useless suggestions read more

The Miller Avenue location - The oil change itself was done well, and a bit overpriced. The personal -customer service part of it , could use some work... . The mechanics/technicíans were talking amongst themselves while at work in the work place, however forgot that the walls are thin, easily audible in the wait room.. Blatant with their f ... this and sh.. Words you simply do not use when out in public/service places. Besides that, they did not return my car key with payment - had to ask for it after they drover "my ready to go" car out onto the drive way upon being serviced. Car floors were not entirely vacuumed like i had been told they would.. Lastly, however worked in the inside of my car, they had the odasity to go through my glove compartment! They could have inquired with me before if they were in need of any paperwork? I may decide not to return to this particular Jiffy Lube - I'd stop by and see first if there is a new crew of respectful, adult like technicIans before ipting to have a next service done. read more

We needed tires pumped on our truck and it was very nice of the staff to get us in, let us pump tires, and go, even when they were very busy. It was right before dinner and we needed a quick tire pump, and Jiffy Lube made it seem simple. I recommend this place to others. read more

Terrible service. Came in to be Uber Certified, oil change and replacement bulb. Charged me for a bulb I already had and forgot to put back in a bulb that didn't need to be replaced. That Jiffy Lube has boys doing a grownups job. Owner should really pay attention to low reviews. read more

Rarely a wait. Friendly, knowledgeable & don't try to upsell. Prices reasonable. If you don't want to sit in the waiting area, the neighborhood is a pleasant place to walk around. read more

Stay away from this Jiffy Lube for oil changes. I brought my Prius here for its first oil change since I purchased it. It had no issues for 10,000 miles before the oil change. After spending over $100 for the oil change, the oil level was critically low less than a month of normal driving later. I brought it back to Jiffy Lube and they charged me for a "top up" and suggested something hit the bottom of the car and probably needed repair. After this visit the car hasn't had any issues. So they clearly made a mistake the first time and then charged me to fix it. Will not be returning, pretty scummy if you ask me. read more

well, its 2023 and my last 2019 review was so glowing I thought it necessary to re-visit. Over the last few years I've been noticing a dramatic change in as far as the staffing of this Mill Valley Jiffy Lube. Many different folks have come and gone. But my issue is not with that. Truthfully, I believe Jiffy Lube staff have been fulfilling the minimal checks that are described in their agreement and placards, specifically work to be done as part of the Signature Oil Change Service. However, this visit, today, I had to ask two of the guys 3 times if the fluids under the hood would be checked. One guy was slowly cleaning the windows. Strange as I just came from the car wash. It was obvious. this worker and one other spent about 1/3 of their time looking at their cell phones while leaning against my truck or walking around the entrance lot. However, a third worker was diligently working on the wiper blades of another vehicle. Later, this gentleman came in and spoke with that owner. Whew! A fourth worker, one who is a regular, was in the pit changing my oil. Double-Whew! I knew at least my oil would be changed. The first two workers walked away about half-way through when the 3rd worker came over and popped the hood finally and checked the brake fluid, windshield wiper fluids. Triple-whew! He then asked me if I wanted him to check the corrosivity of the brake fluid and explained to me why that is significant, and after showing me the test strip recommended I think about a brake fluid flush. At least two people were actually working this day. This is very very very different than what the personnel USED to do which was to swarm all over the car checking everything and calling everything out as they did it. Before, the workers would find things that might need work outside of Jiffy Lube, or recommend I come in at a time to take care of something that was more critical and would take more time. Not so much anymore. It's more important now to make sure folks actually do their job sometimes, and doubly so at this Jiffy Lube. Sad. read more

DO NOT USE JIFFY LUBE! I brought my 2007 Prius there to have my brakes done and an Uber inspection. I dropped the car off with no warning lights lit up and when I picked it up my brake light, my ABS light and my VSC lights were all on! The mechanic said "the lights were already on" BS now my ABS brakes don't work and they won't do a thing about it! THIS PLACE SHOULD BE CLOSED DOWN!!!! read more

I've been to this jiffy lube location twice now and have had great experiences each time. They are quick, efficient and don't try to oversell things by adding on lots of additional services like some places do. Came here on a Friday around lunch time and had a full synthetic oil change. They took the car in right away and I was out within 20 minutes. A big plus is they are also open on Saturdays! read more

Should be called "Gyp me Lube" Or "Iffy Lube". Dishonest, belligerent, bad service, low quality. I made the mistake of going there once some years ago. From reading recent NextDoor postings, it seems they've only gotten worse recently read more

Having grown up with a very DIY approach to car maintenance I always die a little when I pay someone for an oil change...but in SF it's a must. I mean, who's got a garage and how do you change your oil on a steep hill? (I joke.) Anyway, I've used this Jiffy Lube many times and I appreciate the work they do. They're quick, courteous, and don't try to upsell TOO hard. The guy at the desk is always upbeat and positive, and puts a smile on just about every customer's face--so if I die a little, at least I die happy! read more

Really thoughtful manager. Did everything well,but didn't reset the car service memory.

Did I just almost pay $100 for a lube job today? Sadly, yes. Jiffy Lube - what happened? I was re-reading my positive reviews from a few years ago - back then a lube job was just $57. For that reasonable price, I could get my oil changed, fluids updated, tires pumped, and carpets vacuumed for about $57 in about 30-45 minutes. Plus, if you presented your coupon from their website, you could save 10 bucks. So paying $50 seemed like a really good deal for car maintenance. So today when I went in if for my car's annual "check-up," I was admittedly sticker-shocked when I received the final bill. They were gonna charge me $99.99 (no joke). Fortunately, I printed off their $16 coupon, so my total bill (after tax) was $87.87. But WOW! Did you guys switch out my regular oil for magic unicorn juice? You didn't even perform all the usual things (eg my carpets weren't vacuumed, and nobody checked on my lights). Perhaps this is just how things are now in the time of Covid. So maybe they've had to increase their prices. And if that's indeed the case, I understand. But wow - $40 for pouring oil into my engine and $50+ for labor for a job that took 10 minutes. I just can't help but feel like I got hosed. read more

Great place! Aok. Services On time Clean Great. location. A++++++++++*+*+*++*+++ read more

Our car was overheating and they decided to help us immediately by giving us the coolant and they even gave a comped service. Outstanding!

I came here for an Uber inspection. My car is in perfect shape. always get signed off by my regular mechanic. I've noticed a lot of mechanics like to find a little things they can nitpick to make money off of you when you do an Uber inspection. They usually look at the wiper blades. Every time I've done an Uber inspection not at my normal mechanic, they run the wiper blades and then when there are a few dots left on the windshield behind the wiper blade they say it's unsafe and that I have to buy new wiper blades from them. It's a racket. No common sense at all whatsoever. read more

I went to Jiffy Lube in Mill Valley for an oil change. I told the attendant/manager that I needed an A1 as indicated on my screen. He said," So you want the same as last time?" I replied, "Yes, if it's an A1." Imagine my surprise when I walk into the office to pay and I see that the oil change should have been under $90 for the type of oil I needed. I was charged for the higher service. I mentioned it and the reply was that they topped off everything. I didn't ask for that!!!! Seems like a scam to me! read more

This business is first come first serve and I'm unable to make an appointment, which is fine. However, It's impossible to get in touch with anyone by phone at this location as nobody answers the phone. This past Tuesday 11/2/21 I had to go in person to let them know no one answers the phone and they looked surprised. Someone told me to call their number to check, so I called and sure enough the ringer was not on but I was kind enough to help them fix that. However, I've been calling on and off since then to see how busy they are too gauge how long my approximate wait time might be to replace my windshield wipers and they are back to not answering their phone. The most basic expectation of any customer service to keep communication channels open to customers and I really hope this Jiffy Lube location begins to understand this. Customers will go elsewhere if this does not improve. read more

I just called to schedule an appointment to have an vehicle inspection done for both my Lyft and Uber driver's accounts. Alex told me it would be $94 for both inspections. Before using the Lyft and Uber hubs (which are now temporarily closed), I hadn't been charged more than $20. Good idea to stay away from this place. read more

Took my mom's old car to Jiffy Lube to see if I could buy a tail lightbulb. Otherwise, I'd have to drive out of town to an auto parts store. As soon as I pulled into a parking space, Eric ran out to help me. Not only did they have the bulb, but he replaced it for me in about 5 minutes! Mom was concerned that her car was overdue for an oil change. Eric went through the records and assured mom that her car had been serviced routinely for the last 4 years. Was very impressed with Eric's customer service. Told him last Wednesday I was gonna give him 5 stars on Yelp. Sorry this post took so long! read more

Paid for signature service. Didn't wash windows, vacuum interior, or inspect as advertised. A bunch of lazy rip-off crooks doing the minimum and trying to get away with it. The flunky just blew my complaint off! "0" if I could! Caveat emptor! read more

Thank you, Sam, for servicing my car and most importantly helping me problem solve some issues. Your patience and expertise are greatly appreciated. read more

I read some of the bad reviews about the up selling and other various BS. Since the MV location is just so darn convenient, I thought I'd roll the dice. Pleasantly surprised; Charged the posted price for an oil change. No up sell tactics. Since I was the only late afternoon customer, out in 10 min. read more

I went for car upkeep before my weekend road adventure. I got oil changed. Head light replaced. Fluids checked and topped off. New wind shield wiper blades. And now I'm SET for the trip. Sam was helpful and informative not only with my billing breakdown, but with explaining why and how the services I got done would benefit my car long term. He did a great job and me and my engine left smiling. I come from Oakland alllll the way to This location because they treat me right and it's quick without being rushed. read more

If you're like me and refuse to waste an hour of my life on an oil change - this is a good place. Search online for coupons up to $15 off. I don't often take my car in for its oil change, so I can't tell you how this place compares to others. I can tell you that the guys outside are nice and they will check more than you want - wipers, lights, fluids, wheels, possibly breaks too. The downside is that you may spend more money than you want to get a service better provided by your own mechanic ie tire rotation and brake pad replacement. MY EXPERIENCE I came here before reading the other reviews because I've had positive experiences here in the past. I'm hopeful that after having them rotate my tired, top off my fluids and change my oil, that my service was as good as it was in the past. RESPONSE TO BAD REVIEWS It would be nice to hear a managers response to the stream of complaints, except that in litigation, of course. I'm hoping that they had taken subsequent remedial measures like replacing negligent staff, but I'd like confirmation of this before I return...it would also ease my mind around my last visit. SCENE Inside, they have Starbucks pod-coffee with that scary powdered creamer, sugar, big flat-screen tv, magazines, and a bunch of chairs. I didn't touch their coffee or magazines, but I did catch about 15-20 minutes of Re-Bath Remodeling one time, and Bethanney on the other. Also, they were not early as busy usual, but that might have to do with recent issues. Overall, not bad. Note: Midas might have the touch, but I didn't have the hour they wanted. JF got the job done- thanks! read more

I was definitely a bit cautious due to the reviews, but I'm really glad I came here for an oil change. I've been going to different Jiffy Lube locations around the South Bay, so this is my first time trying out a location in the North Bay. My car badly needed an oil change and I figured to take it anywhere convenient. Luckily, I checked online before I came in and saw a coupon for $10 off. It was close to home and price was comparable to other places I've been checking out (my car needed synthetic oil so I would've ended up paying ~$60). Right when I came in everyone was super accommodating and since I've been there before they were able to pull up my information easily. Their waiting room was clean, offered water & coffee. There is a bathroom. I think I waited about ~20 minutes and it was done! I forgot they vacuum your car (complimentary) so that was great. Overall, smooth and easy process. Knew the price before I was coming in, no surprises. Will def be back! read more

Over the last few years I've had great service here. These guys are honest with me and actually take the time to look/assess what's going on with my 15yo bmw with occasional leaky fluid issues. They are fast and accurate with time guesstimations for car pick up. They aren't suggesting things I don 't need. If I drop in for a quick check they are happy to do this and top off fluids or whatever. They seem to work really hard and are always professional. To those complaining about the price (which is just stupid get a coupon out of your mailbox), it's a chain, these guys don't set prices - so if the negotiating is important to you for an oil change go to your self employed mechanic. Anyway - thanks Jiffy Lube on Miller, good service for me! read more

They still do great work here, and you never feel pressure to get things done on your car. No appointment needed just drive up and they'll tell you what you need and don't need. Great friendly crew! They are always reliable, fast, and efficient, still my favorite tune up shop!! I totally recommend this shop to all my family and friends. read more

Went to JL today instead of the dealer to change the synthetic oil. It was fast and efficient. The people working there are competent and terrific (they should receive a raise), it was smooth, and they even clean the car, check the lights, etc. everything it seems. PS: I like the coffee machine with the French roast pods, makes a positive difference for me, seems everything is thought-out. Thanks read more

This place is run by crooks. They tell you things are broken and need replacing that do not need replacing. They charge excessively for wiper blades and filters and blatantly lie to you about the condition of your car. Avoid this place like gonorrhea! read more

This is my third visit since Friday. The didn't have my oil filter, but said the would by Saturday morning. Saturday 10:30 am, still no filter. Monday afternoon, they have the oil filter finally. Argumentative manager, so I demanded a discount. They lowered my tire pressure without asking, and I had to go back so they could correct that. These people, makes me wonder why they are employed. This place is not worth wasting your time with... I won't make the mistake of going back... read more

Beware of thieves! I brought my car in to get serviced after having purchased a reusable cabin air filter ($100). Trying to be considerate, I informed the oil tech that I had a new one and they didnt need to check the cabin air filter. After my oil was changed, I noticed a subtle dirty dusty smell, but thought nothing of it. Over the next week, my wife and I both noticed it an I decided to check the cabin air filter. ONE OF THOSE GUYS STOLE IT AND REPLACED IT WITH A DIRTY AIR FILTER!!! I left a voicemail and wrote the manager complaining, but got no response. He must be in cahoots with his kleptomaniac employees. Watch your belongings when changing your oil here! read more

I stopped in to Jiffy Lube this morning because I had planned to do a SMOG test to get my new CA played today, but when I got in my car this morning the oil change light was on, and I was positive I would be turned away at the SMOG test place. (Turns out I was mistaken - the "check engine" light and the "change your damn oil woman" lights are different things!) So, I went in and LITERALLY no more than seven minutes (and $125) later I was outta there (following the obligatory upsell of filters, yadda yadda...) This was seriously the fastest I've ever had ANYTHING done on my car -- ever! I'll use this Jiffy Lube next time -- cause they put the "JIFFY" in JIFFYLUBE! (Get it??) read more

The actual service seemed fine but the guy checking me in has zero social skills and should'nt be the doing that role. Try getting someone who can at least be mildly pleasant as the first impression is important read more

I have been going here because it is near my house but never again. I am tired of being charged for work that I don't need. Once, during the oil change I was told that my car wouldn't start and needed a new battery. Since I had just driven the car there I doubted this and declined the work. The car started fine! Also, they never put a service sticker on my windshield until I ask. And what is this charade about the coupons? Just knock $30 off the oil change and charge what is reasonable for an oil change. read more

These guys work hard and have never let me down when I bring my car in for oil changes. Quick, efficient and just nice guys. Thank you for your consistent service and efficiency. I have never ever felt up-sold or that they are being pushy. read more
