I got a new to me car 4 months ago and took it in for its 1st oil change. I had never been to Jiffy…read moreLube before and decided to try it as it was en route to the grocery store. Robert greeted me and took all my info. When I mentioned I wanted the cheapest oil change he explained why I couldn't do it in this new car. Apparently I needed to use synthetic or part synthetic which was more expensive than I was used to paying. After he explained everything that was going to be included, we found a coupon online and I was in. I opted to wait in the waiting room so they could do a free vacuum on my carpets. The waiting room was nice. Comfortable chairs, complimentary drinks, and tv. He told me it would take about 20 min but I'm pretty sure it was less than that. Although I had sticker shock at first, they told me I can come in anytime for free fluid top off and tire fills. Their customer service was great, I didn't have to wait long like other places, and the online coupons make the price pretty comparable.

I've been to the Cicero location twice for NYS Inspection. I think there are two good reasons to…read morepatronize VIOC for inspections. It's not a repair shop so there's less likelihood that they will try to find something extra to charge you for and you don't have to drop off your vehicle and pick it up later. With that being said I had issues both times I brought my vehicle there for inspection. The last time was this week and Erick failed my vehicle for grooves in one of my rotors that were VERY minor and also for what he claimed were rips in my wiper blades. The blades were only a year old and they are premium Bosch blades that have no material to rip. They worked fine and I'm confident he never tried them. The NYS Inpsection criteria (section 79.21) states "Inspect disc for any distortion or scoring that would impare braking system". This minor groove would do nothing but increase the braking surface. When I challenged Erick on this point, he quickly reiterated what the inspector from my last visit said. His answer was basically that VIOC has to be very strict when interpreting the inspection guidelines because they're not a repair shop so it doesn't look good if they don't fail inspections and they might get a $10,000 fine and/or lose their inspection license. I believe I fell into the category of required failures. To be completely fair, my parking brake didn't work well enough which should have been the only reason for a failed inspection. As far as service goes; we spent 3 hours waiting the first visit and then when we returned the next day we arrived before they opened and it still took 2-1/2 hours. Definitely will not patronize them again. Hope this helps someone.

She was knowledgeable, very quick, and I was impressed by how hard she was working as the only mechanic on duty this afternoon when I was there.

It's on a corner of a busy intersection but not impossible to get out of if you turn right out of the parking lot!
