I have been getting my oil changed at this store since it opened. It was always cheap and fast until about 18 months ago. They used to have skilled workers and good customer service. Both were victims of COVID. I will never go back!
I went to the Automotive department on 3-14-2021 at about 12 PM with my 2010 Mercury Grand Marquis for an oil change. I was told it would take about an hour and a half. I gave them my keys and shopped around then sat down to wait. After 45 minutes the clerk said "We do not have the oil to do your car". A 2010 Mercury is not a rare car. It is conceivable that a large retailer like Walmart would be out of stock.
I got my keys back and drove about 1/2 mile to Princeton Automotive. They changed my oil and got me on my way in under 20 minutes.
It cost me about $10 more to have it done there than at Walmart. A real bargain. Their crew was professional and fast.
Walmart is going the way of Sears, Kmart, and Montgomery Ward.
Walmart cannot fire your competent staff, reduce services, and operate with reduced inventory and expect to stay in business.
If your time is worth more than minimum wage, and you expect competent service avoid this Walmart entirely. There are too many good automotive service centers and good retail stores in the area to have to suffer this level of incompetence. read more
