This place used to be great. 5 minutes in and out. Spent 90 minutes there as the only car until some lady came. High pressure upsell on stuff I didn’t need. Incompetent kid trying to add oil while taking phone breaks. When they were “done” and I drove away, oil light and some serious warning light came on. Somehow, all the oil had drained out. New oil, did they ever replace the old oil? Who knows? I immediately returned while my car was still running. Some lame excuse. Never again.
