    The Oil Connection
    Daniella P.

    If you're only looking to get an oil change to get your maintenance light off, then they will get it done with one lane eventually for a hefty price and wait. I apologize to all the people that I recommend to The Oil Connection, since I stopped going due to a new vehicle. I was recently in the area and recommended a family member, as I recalled the days of Manager Steve his personable team, excellent customer service and feeling of a genuine community business. I recall buying Steve's team lunch just to thank them for their friendly upbeat attitude and excellent service to the community. Last time I'll recommend or go as it was the opposite experience I described. Clearly under new management and new employees. Wishing you the best, manager Kyle.

    First time here...we shall see.

    I was greeted warmly by Ashley and she provided me with a quote. There were two bays open while I was here, but there seems to be more bays that could be opened. The crew communicates very well with each other. They practice safety both in the pit and above. The actual service took exactly 13 minuets from start to finish. The tech checked all fluids and topped off those that were low. Charles was my service tech, he moved thru the process quickly and efficiently and was a very nice man. One thing I liked is that they don't pressure you to up sale for other stuff...they did tell me of any concerns that were noticed. This is a well run shop, easy to see why they have such a good reputation in Fairfield. See y'all in 5000 miles!

    Getting my oil changed.

Most recently, my "change oil" light came on, so I stopped in assuming I needed service. Instead of just going ahead with the oil change, they took the time to check my history and let me know that since I used Mobil 1 oil last time, I'm actually covered for up to 10,000 miles. They explained that my car is simply set to alert me at 5,000 miles, so I didn't need an oil change yet. They easily could have taken my money since I came in expecting to pay, but their honesty really stood out. That level of integrity is rare and truly appreciated. Experiences like this are exactly why I'll continue to be a loyal customer. Highly recommend!

One of the best parts is that you don't even have to get out of your car, which is super convenient for me. The staff is extremely friendly -- they greet you right away, make you feel welcome, and even offer you water while you wait. They do a thorough check of everything in your car and clearly explain what may need replacing, but there's absolutely no pressure or forcing you to do anything. I also had a coupon that didn't work at first, but they still found a way to honor it, which I really appreciated. The service was quick and top quality overall. I'll definitely be coming back for my future oil changes!

As you can imagine, especially since the weather has been getting hotter, my car also had a stench in the interior. Today, I requested for the exterior and interior to be cleaned. I explicitly asked for the seats to be shampooed/cleaned due to the stains in the back seat. For good measure, I requested for the floor to be cleaned as well. I was quoted a price, which included my member discount and agreed to the service. I was told ahead of time that the wait time for the service would be 1.5 to 2 hours, which I truly appreciated. After about an hour and a half wait, I was notified that my car was done. The gentleman walked me to my car and explained exactly what was done while he allowed me to check out their work. All of the pet stains were gone! The coffee stain that I had on the seat for years was nearly all removed as well! I was very impressed with the attention to detail that the staff gave on my car. Not only was my car clean, but it smelled amazing as well. I wish I caught the name of the gentleman that assisted me today, as I forgot to give him a tip. Customer service was amazing! Staff were friendly and knowledgeable of the services they provide. During the wait, I talked with one of the staff members in the wait area for quite some time. She was very nice and made my wait time fly by. I'll obviously continue to take mine and my husband's vehicles here in the near future.

    After calling a few mechanics in the Fairfield area about having a pre-purchase inspection on a…read moreVolvo, I decided to go with Auto Repair Solutions because it had the highest number of Yelp Reviews in the area for European cars. After arranging the inspection on a Friday morning, I waited to hear back from the mechanic after the buyer told me the car had been inspected--NOTHING for hours. I tried calling Jeff (the mechanic) several times, leaving messages each time without so much as a callback. When he finally called me back, he didn't tell me anything about the car except "it looked good". I asked if he had taken any photos of the car or if he had any kind of report he could email or text me and he said "no". I asked if there was anything specifically about the car that I should be aware of for the future--something every mechanic can comment on--to which his reply was, "Not really." As someone who has had several PPIs from different mechanics over the years, I've never been told that there was no inspection report at all--nothing about the tires or the brake pads or the filters or fluid levels or the body of the car or the interior. NOTHING. So, by the time I rescheduled anther PPI with a different mechanic on the following workday in the area, the owner ended up selling the car I planned on buying.

Jeff did a great job. 3 things stood out regarding this shop. 1.his outgoing voicemail message is updated daily with the day, date and next appointment availability. That is huge because you know The approximately lead time you're looking at. 2. he's open on weekends, which is fantastic. Most shops are closed on weekends which is when bad things happen. LOL. 3. Genuinely good customer service. He takes time and explains the issue and the solution. That's invaluable. Great job Jeff, keep up the excellent work.
