Valvoline Instant Oil Change - Outside

Valvoline Instant Oil Change

(40 reviews)

I usually go to J for an oil change but this was close to my job so I decided to try them. I will…read morekeep coming to Valvoline and specifically to this location. From start to finish everything was perfect. I appreciated that every charge was explained so no hidden fees. I got to chill in my car, service was quick, and customer service impeccable.I also got to use a $25 off coupon no issues. This was the all star team that handled my oil change: CSR: Kelly, Topside: Matthew, Tariq Stacey, Bottomside: Liam. The manager Layla made sure everything ran..like a well oiled machine..ha..get it? Anyways this place is it. 10/10

Was passing by stelton rd and found this valvoline . I like valvoline outlets , if they aren't too…read morecrowded peak times it takes a longgggggg time to change oil. I went weekday during lunch time and it was empty . I was able to go in for the oil change in 7-10 mins . I like the concept of oil changes here . You just sit in your car and everything is done as you wait in your car . Synthetic oil costs about 105$ . They are a bit pricey as compared to my local mechanic but it's easy. I would give few more dollars for the comfort . The only issue is - they keep asking multiple other thiings - like air filter change , coolant , wipers etc etc and generally adds another 70-80$ .. I'm not a big car expert and I feel they oversell sometimes . I stil like valvoline and 4 stars for this location ..

This used to be my go-to place for tire rotations and oil changes…read more I really want to like this Goodyear because it's close to where I live, but service can be very hit-or-miss, especially on the weekends and weeknights: lack of employee proficiency using the outdated computer database system, neglecting to phone customers when vehicle maintenance is finished, and an understaffed front desk or shop have sometimes led to overly long wait times and clunky customer experiences. Customers who decide to wait in the store can expect a TV playing local news, a vending machine, some worn but comfortable conference room chairs, and an Xfinity or Optimum Online wi-fi hotspot, though the nearby McDonalds, CVS, and Acme probably have better food and entertainment options. As for pricing, Goodyear is occasionally the winner when coupons or other promotional discounts are factored in, but its everyday MSRP for services and parts can high compared to other local repair shops. Still lower than dealership prices, of course, but I'd definitely call in advance to get quotes on parts and major repair services.

Zero stars if I could. I brought my car to this garage specifically because my check engine light…read morewas on. They diagnosed the vehicle, kept it for repair, and charged me to fix the issue. The exact same check engine light came right back on after leaving. When I reached out to the shop to explain that the issue was never actually resolved, they didn't even want to touch the car again. They took my money for a failed diagnostic/repair and walked away from their own workmanship. Avoid this garage at all costs if you expect accountability or professional service. Because they refuse to honor their work or even inspect the vehicle, I am currently looking into taking a legal route to recover my funds.

Top-notch service and an excellent experience! Based on a word-of-mouth recommendation and…read morepositive Yelp reviews, I booked an 11 AM appointment at Safe & Save Automotive for an oil change and brake service, and I'm so glad I did. Thanh at the front desk was friendly, professional, and thorough. He explained the recommended work and provided a detailed cost breakdown upfront. My car was in the shop from around 11 AM to 3:10 PM, and Thanh kept me informed with regular updates throughout the process. The pricing was exactly as quoted, and there was absolutely no pressure to purchase additional services. For example, they pointed out that my wiper blades needed replacing, which I already knew, but when I mentioned I could take care of it myself, they completely understood. They also readjusted a panel on the front of my car that had not been sitting flush for quite some time, securing it back into place at no extra charge. Thanh even sent me home with a few pricing options for new tires so I could compare them with other options and make an informed decision at my own pace -- again, with zero pressure. Most importantly, I could immediately feel the difference in how my car drives after the service. The brakes feel great, and the strange whooshing noise I had noticed is gone. I got the impression that Safe & Save Automotive is a small, family-owned business, and I'm happy to support a shop that genuinely values its customers through honest communication, fair pricing, and quality work. I highly recommend them and will definitely keep them in mind for future automotive needs!

Thanks to Save and Safe for keeping my car running strong for the last 7 years. I've been wanting…read moreto replace this 2004 MDX but the Truong brothers at Save and Safe have kept this SUV alive and well.
