I specifically asked the attendant to make sure the oil filter assembly was secure, and I was told it would be double-checked. About 300 miles later, I stopped and found oil sprayed all over the underside of my car, with the vehicle smoking from oil burning on hot components. I brought the car to another Take 5 location in Quincy, where a technician inspected it and identified the problem: the oil filter housing cover drain plug had not been reinstalled during the Ocala service. Because of this, I had to stop my trip, get a hotel for the night, pay for a replacement part, and wait for the repair before I could safely continue driving. What makes this especially frustrating is that I specifically asked them to double-check the oil filter area before I left. I have photos, receipts, and documentation from the second Take 5 location confirming what was missing, and I am pursuing reimbursement through Take 5 corporate. Leaving a required oil-system component off after an oil change is an extremely serious mistake. I'm very fortunate I stopped when I did and noticed the leak before potentially causing major engine damage.

A few years ago, a competitor of Meineke on State Highway 200 attempted to sell me a new set of tires when I went in for an oil change. I had just purchased a set of tires a month earlier. I may have snow on the top of my head, but my brain hasn't turned to mush. On to my review. I look after elderly parents. The battery in their car recently went dead. It was a bit frustrating because the battery was only a year old. I was afraid it was the alternator. We had it towed to Meineke because that is where they like to do their repairs. Mike and Debbie went above and beyond the call of duty. The battery was bought at the auto store next door last year. They tested it, determined it was the battery and took the old one to the auto part store, and replaced it free of charge. They could have tried to sell my parents an alternator - but they didn't. One of the reasons I had the car towed was that it had bad tires. Debbie called me and related that only three tires were bad - not four. Instead of trying to sell me four, they only sold three. If they told me all four needed to be replaced, I would have listened. As opposed to trying to sell the most expensive tires, they recommended a less expensive tire that was still good. My parents don't drive much they didn't need expensive tires. Mike and Debbie are ethical, honest and a pleasure to do business with. The car was ready when they said it would be ready. It's nice to know that my parents' car is in good hands at Meineke on State Road 200.

Decided…read moreto have a few things done, which included Brake Fluid, Differential (front & rear) and Transfer Case. On the phone, the employee quoted me under $600 with a Transmission Fluid Flush, not including the extra oil; however, when I arrived and decided against the Transmission Fluid, they quoted a similar price. Realizing they didn't factor the Military Discount, they said they would input that. Initial they said it would take about 2-3 hours, but finished in 1.5 and that is with the inspection, which does concern me. Either way, I left and later reviewed the bill and noticed nowhere did it mention the Military Discount. After speaking with the employee again, he explained the system would not allow them to input it, so they just discounted the cost of the other services to make up for the difference. This indicates they could do better with their communication. As usual, they did recommend other services, which are in line with the manufacturer suggested maintenance, which I decided to do next time and didn't pressure me. During a previous visit, they suggested an engine air filter replacement on a K & N, which is washable and lasts the life of the vehicle, so that raised an eyebrow. It's funny how most businesses, including vehicle maintenance establishments tack on extra fees for Convenience?

I stopped in for low tire pressure and a oil change On my 2011 Expedition. I was parked outside the garage door waiting to be next in line. A woman employee came out and asked what I was here for today. I said tire pressure was low on driver front side and a possible oil change since I was there. She scanned my vin and explained that I didn't need an oil change for another 1030 miles. She filled all 4 tires and added wiper fluid outside the garage! She also showed the dipstick and the oil was still clean! After closing the hood she stated " Have a great day, see you when your oil change is due, and no charge"! I backed away from the garage and left a happy customer! read more
