RUN FAR AWAY - Worst Experience of My Life!…read more
Please, whatever you do, RUN FAR AWAY from this Valvoline.
I came in for a simple oil change, got pressured over and over to do a transmission flush, and it destroyed my car.
My transmission was jerking, grinding, and my check-engine light came on.
The dealership confirmed the fluid was burnt with metal debris, and now I'm facing a $12,886 repair.
When I called to get help, the so-called investigator Stephen spoke rudely, took no accountability, and pretty much hung up in my face--even with a corporate rep on the line! They denied my claim without any written proof, only excuses.
THE SERVICE WAS NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE PERFORMED ON MY TYOE OF TRANSMISSION ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP!
I'm beyond disappointed and furious.
If you value your vehicle, your money, and your peace of mind, do NOT trust these people. They're not accountable, they're unprofessional, and they clearly don't care about their customers.
Save yourself the stress--go anywhere else.
-UPDATED AFTER RESPONSE-
Jamie, thank you for responding. At this time, Valvoline has denied responsibility for the transmission failure that occurred immediately after your location performed a transmission flush on my vehicle, despite dealership documentation confirming internal transmission damage consistent with service failure.
I have already provided all details to your claims team, and I have formally filed complaints with both the Better Business Bureau and the Texas Attorney General Consumer Protection Division. I have also retained documentation including dealership findings, service invoice, and a recorded call (with consent) in which the claim was denied without written investigation results being provided.
I am still without a vehicle, unable to work normally, and experiencing significant hardship as a result of this service. I look forward to your corporate team reviewing this matter thoroughly and providing a fair resolution.
For transparency, I will continue updating this review as the process continues.
