    Police record of report for stolen item.
    Mark S.

    I don't take making an accusation likely, but there is a thief here and at a minimum you need to make sure you have nothing of value out in the open if you bring your business to this location. This was my go to place to do business too; I just gave them over $500 of business on two vehicles just a month ago. This incident occurred during a visit for a state inspection required for vehicle registration. Right before I pulled in I saw that my Dragy device; an electronic speed vs distance datalogger, was in the center console of my truck with the charging cord plugged into it and was flashing red; and I thought to myself it needs to be charged. So if I hadn't seen it right before pulling in then I might think it had been lifted somewhere else. When I parked my truck here the doors were locked and windows up. After the service was completed, I left and was about a mile away when I remembered it needed to be plugged in for charging. Except it wasn't there to charge. I turned right around, went back, and got the manager. Nobody would return it so the Irving police department came and a report was filed; Report# 21-27675. I obviously won't be returning because they can't be trusted. Additionally, been coming here for years, but the people working here now are fairly new from the previous crew.

    Just like the name suggests, Kwik Kar off MacArthur is QUICK, professional and efficient. I went in on the weekend to get my state inspection done. I did call ahead but they weren't doing appointments for that - it's just first come first serve. I was in and out within maybe 15 minutes if that! Pricing also seems reasonable. I had another car servicing center in desoto but need a new spot since moving to the Irving area. I can definitely see myself returning for other car services. If only I had looked here on yelp to check in, I could've got an discount for being a first time customer!

    Missing washer in drain oil plug

    On 04/18/22 I took my Audi to Kwik Kar Valley Ranch in Irving for oil change. I brought my own oil filter, oil and air filter. They slapped me a bill of $114.40 for the labors that also included the drain plug part On Friday evening 05/06/22 (~3 weeks after oil change), my Audi displayed the dreaded "oil running low warning" light on the dashboard. I adamantly thought this was a serious problem somewhere like gasket leak. So I took it to my trusted mechanics (Ruben's All Auto Repair) immediately On Monday 05/09/22 my trusted mechanics discovered the issue. The oil plug was missing the washer, causing the oil leaking!!! Apparently those Kwik Kar mechanics carelessly forgot to put the washer back when they done. My trusted mechanics had to special ordered the new washer, poured additional ~ 3 quarts of oil and cleaned all oil leaks that spilled under the car along the axle, etc. A bill of $175 to fix what Kwik Kar had damaged Returning to Kwik Kwar, I initially was calm having conversation w the manager who claimed a new company is taking over Kwik Kwar. He mentioned this excuse several times. My angry rebuttal was pointing to his shirt, "what is the name of the company labeling on your shirt! It spells Kwik Kar, not new company." He then claimed the Kwik Kar mechanics who worked that 04/18/22 weekend also messed up other cars including a Jaguar!!!! Bashing his own employees and said they were let go!!! I pressed him about what he can right the wrong w the $114.40 messed up job? His response, "we cannot reimburse you. But we can give you free oil change if you come back next time" 1. "Y'all cost me $175 just now. Why would I want to come back for another whack job!" 2. "You telling me this verbally! How will the next manager I talk to in 10 months knows the deal you giving me?" Most absurd idiotic answer I heard in a long time, "I'll be here when you come back!!!" He also refused to give me store credit. He then wrote down a promised note about free oil change instead. Amateur management, wreck-less auto mechanics care!!! You just lost this customer for good

    I've always known Valvoline Instant Oil Change as the place where you pull up, wait in your car for…read morea few minutes to get a speedy oil change, and then off you go. That's what Valvoline used to be. Now, it's nothing short of a gamble as to how long your wait will be as you sit behind what is essentially someone else's auto dealership service visit. The Valvoline wait problem is real. 45+ minute wait for a single oil change - it's inexcusable. It's easy to think this location's technicians are either incredibly slow, selling too much - or both. I really believe though that this is a situation in which Valvoline, Inc. can't get its branding and workflow right and that locations like this are at the mercy of having to sell more services for profit while in the process sacrificing the speed Valvoline promises as a brand. It makes sense: Offer an 18-point service check, find other vehicle issues, and upsell. But that's not who you've been as a brand, and continue to promote yourself to be, Valvoline. The name of your location is, "Valvoline Instant Oil Change." So you make more money with more repair services and I'm all for getting work done so I'm safe behind the wheel - but that's not why I go to Valvoline. I go there to get an oil change quickly and get out. There is no reason why I should choose Valvoline for extended service repairs like flushes given that auto dealers and other auto repair shops have stepped up their waiting areas with more comfort and amenities. In the amount of time it took yesterday to get my oil change at Valvoline sitting in my car, I could have booked online with my auto dealer and gotten multiple things fixed while relaxing comfortably in its waiting area with coffee and snacks, or working on my computer being productive with high-speed internet. I still need some other service done according to my Valvoline check but after the wait for the oil change and then the service itself, I had no interest. The guy in front of me got an oil change, new filter, and, lo and behold, there was something wrong with his gas tank knob! I hope they got as much money from him as they could while the rest of us waited and waited and waited. Michael, my service technician, acknowledged the wait, but didn't apologize for it, nor did he offer any make-good. I'm sure that's because he didn't think there was anything wrong - it was just busy. That is the problem: His job is to sell and fix no matter how long it takes. Hopefully, the Valvoline bosses above him will stop getting their wires crossed and help him do a better job of that with branding, and workflow and logistical changes. Soon - if not instantly. Also..how did an oil change in general go from $19.99 to $80 in, like, 5 minutes?

I recognized his voice and thanked him for being so nice when I called the day prior for how kind he was. I was in and out in a flash. No telling me my brakes were bad, I needed new tires- no BS.

Scared…read moreshe'd breakdown on the way into work, she asked Driver's Edge in Irving, Texas to diagnose the sound. Driver's Edge put together a comprehensive inspection report listing items that required immediate attention and items that were more recommendations. The quote was fairly pricey for the "required" items so she asked me to take a look. I called Trey at Driver's Edge and focused more on the "required" items walking through each item that he suggested required immediate attention. I agreed with him on suspension issues and alignment but questioned the severity of the valve cover leak and the urgency of replacing the rear deck brake light. Trey made it a point to say that the replacement brake light itself was only $7 but the labor to replace the bulb was fairly extensive and was expected to take about 2 hours for the bulb replacement alone. Being busy myself and just wanting to ensure my daughter was safe driving the car, I agreed to all "required" service items which totaled about $3300 in repairs. My daughter's car was done same day and while she was driving home I looked up how difficult it was to replace the brake light. Surprisingly enough, a YouTube video revealed that replacement of the bulb was extremely simple and only took a few moments. I texted Trey to voice my concern that he mislead me and it's been radio silence (after a few attempts of me reaching out). Now I'm questioning whether any of the other services he suggested were really needed. If you value honesty and integrity in car repairs, this place is not for you. If they flat out lie about a brake light replacement, what else are they misleading people about? Here's the YouTube video....does this look like it's 2 hours of labor? Driver's Edge robbed me of $251.49 for this. Shame on me for trusting Trey but in our busy lives, we sometimes need to trust that what we are being told is accurate.

The mechanics were very insistent that I need to stay and fix these issues. They quoted me more than $3000 for the parts and labor cost. Being sceptical, I checked my car camera footage, and saw that the mechanics spent 6-7 minutes looking around the front hood, and then proceeded to chat in the back for the rest of the 1.5 hours. P.S. I went to another auto shop for inspection after. They told me there weren't any issues and that there were just faulty readings on the car sensor.

Got there around 7:40, checked my car in with Tareq. The car was ready in about 40 min. They saved me at least a hundred bucks. I had to pay $139.99 at the dealership, plus other maintenance stuff. But here, for my Toyota RAV4 LE 2023, I only had to pay $102 or so. And when I asked if any other maintenance / replacement is needed (as per Toyota dealership claimed when I was there for my regular 15k miles inspection), I was told everything else is good.
