Damages Valvoline did to my vehicle

STAY AWAY! Valvoline Instant Oil Change damaged my vehicle by over tightening oil filter/cooler cap. The damages to fix my vehicle were over $700. Even though the manager stated that if my vehicle had a prior oil leak, they actually would have noted it on my paperwork receipt meaning my vehicle did not have any prior damage, but Valvoline refused to pay and fix my vehicle. Why? Because Valvoline will not pay for damages to your vehicle if you get it fixed before notifying them. Well... I got it fixed first before telling Valvoline because I did not know my vehicle was damaged due to their carelessness. I took it to a mechanic shop to see why I had an oil leak. Then, that was when I found out the damage was due to Vavoline's neglect of over tightening the oil cooler cap where your oil filter goes. That over tightening of the cap resulted in a hairline crack to the oil cooler housing. Valvoline went past the recommended specs of 25 nm which caused an oil leak. Since you can not fix a crack, the entire oil cooler had to be replaced. This could have been prevented if Valvoline would have used a torch wrench, but they did not use a torch wrench when putting the cap back on my vehicle. Due to their neglect and carelessness, I was billed $768 to fix their mistake. I highly recommend taking your vehicle to another place since they do not care if they damage your vehicle. My biggest question is... how are you suppose to bring it to Valvoline and let them know they damaged your vehicle when you do not even know what is wrong with your vehicle. You do what most people do... You take it to a mechanic, and then he tells you what is wrong; however, by that time, Valvoline and Valvoline Customer Care Department will NOT PAY for damages because you did not contact them first. This is very unprofessional. Maybe Valvoline should start handing out receipts and instead of saying "have a nice day," they should say, "if we tear up your vehicle, contact us first; otherwise, we won't pay for it." I bet no Valvoline customer knew this. Well, NOW YOU KNOW. If they tear up your vehicle, they won't pay for any of it. What a joke right? Well, I bring multiple vehicles to Valvoline. They have lost my trust. Valvoline has no morals regarding customer service. When they should do the right thing, Valvoline does not. If you are in the wrong, you should fix your wrong, but Valvoline won't; therefore, I will not use their services again. Valvoline does not care or value you as a customer. Find another place to change your oil. UPDATE regarding Courtney G.'s comment. I have a case open, and I was not given a case number by the Valvoline Customer Care Department. I was told by the Care Department that since I had gotten my vehicle fixed that Keith, the manager, at Valvoline refused to reimburse for the damages they have done. Even though the manager clearly stated to me that if my vehicle ever had any past damages, like an oil leak, they would have noted it in my invoice. I have no notes on my invoice because I had no prior damages until Valvoline over tightening the cooler cap. I will send another email to the customer care department.

I've been here many times with my two cars and I love it! When the manager, William, is there the place spins like a top. I love his crew! I even get a bunch of discounts, which helps a lot because I can barely afford to go in the first place. They get three stars from me because when William is not there, the workers are fumbling over themselves, taking their time, standing around talking, and the manager on duty is very busy micromanaging. Last time I visited, William was there. I got an oil change, new light, new wiper, and a new air filter for under $90. This time he wasn't there, I got an oil change and cabin filter for $130. Like I said, I can barely afford to come in in the first place and it's hard to budget for such jumps and inconsistencies.

They are awesome but they forgot to put my oxygen censor back on and my car stalled out in Nashville traffic which was terrible but beside that they were amazing brad was very knowledgeable and helpful with all my questions and concerns.

Me inside my car as they worked tirelessly. Wait there were plenty of tires.

See all

LOL.... Typical "canned response" - not even relevant to my core review. It's known as evading the subject matter.

Good service but they don't take cars in order of arrival and this leads to inconsistent service wait times.

The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Their pricing is fair and affordable. Long Version: If you have a minute to stick around, let me tell you my story so you will know how awesome this place is..... Roughly four weeks ago, on December 15, 2023, I drove from NC to Murfreesboro to spend a couple of days with family in the area. I was supposed to have a really quick turnaround. During my drive to Murfreesboro, I had a light turn on in my BMW X3 regarding my coolant. I arrived in town Friday evening and the following morning, I took my vehicle to BMW of Nashville to have the coolant checked/refilled. While my vehicle was at the dealer, they identified a leak and completed further diagnosis to determine the radiator hose needed a replacement - this was the primary radiator hose on top. The quote provided to me by the dealership to complete the repair was egregious compared to the average cost for this repair. The cost was FOUR TIMES the average cost of replacing a radiator hose. I immediately began exploring other options which is where Chris comes into play. I called ATL Total Car Care and explained my situation and the needed repair. We talked through it and Chris was willing to help me and take my car in, the same day, to assist. Chris did not have the hose that I needed in stock but said if I could purchase the part directly from the dealer, he would still handle the repair. So, with Chris' idea, I was able to pick up my car from the dealer, purchase the necessary hose directly from the parts department, and then headed to Chris' way! They close around 2 pm on Saturday from what I recall. Chris took my car in around 12:30 that afternoon - he and his team stayed past closing time to complete the repair. The team waited for me to come and pick up the vehicle and close out afterward. Outstanding service. Affordable pricing. Good People.

I went in for a left door replacement, bumper replacement, and grill replacement. Christian assured me he would be using brand new parts, which is why he charged me $3,800. However, when I picked up my car, I found that he had used old, secondhand parts instead, and he hadn't even replaced the bumper as promised. After checking the receipts for the parts used, I saw the total cost of the parts was only $1,400 for the brand new parts .When I confronted him about it, he raised his voice, used abusive language, and refused to give me any refund. He had taken all payments in cash and is now avoiding any responsibility. I have proof of the payments I made. This was a dishonest and unprofessional experience, and I want to warn others to avoid this repair shop. He literally cheated me. Then I told him please refund my money then he asked me to the garage I went to his place , then again he created a fake invoice and abused me again , he doesn't give any respect to me , he is completely lying and he is changing his words , don't trust this guy Am writing this review with pain
