Staff were friendly, professional, and the visit was short. It was affordable, and no one tired to up-sell me.

Friendly and quick service. I have zip ties holding the bottom plate on my car right now and the employee went to find some more so I could get my oil change done.

The wait time to get in for service. Short staff was the problem so that can't be controlled by the staff that was available, they did their best.

I have five vehicles and all five vehicles I only come to valvoline to get survive done. The staff is very professional well mannered and have great personality and communication skills. I value their assists and service. Most definitely deserve raises.

I drive a Ford Escape just under 80,000 miles. For months I had been noticing a burning type of smell coming from underneath my hood. I brought it to the Ford dealership, I brought it to a mechanic, I even asked my dad - everyone said to me it's just fine and ignore the smell. But it made me nervous and I knew something was off. When I took it in for an oil change at Valvoline I explained to the guy my worries and I sort of tried to explain the smell again. He is the only person who really took me seriously. He searched for the smell himself and realized that it was probably coming from my transmission (which is a huge, scary event). He showed me what my transmission fluid looked like and strongly advised that I do a fluid flush for my transmission. I am so grateful that this team did this for me. When I saw the fluid of what it was supposed to look like versus what had come out of my engine I was stunned. Hopefully this will fix that burning smell and put some life back into my vehicle.

I showed up as a walk in client not knowing that you should schedule ahead for an inspection should you need one. I had planned to just get the oilChange and come back another day for a scheduled inspection, but then the manager came over and said he had time and would do the inspection for me. I really really appreciate him take the time to do that!

After a brief wait while another service was completed, I was guided in and quickly serviced. The process was easy and comfortable. Valvoline is a preferred oil for me and my car needed a fresh fill before the recent cold weather. The staff was friendly and efficient.
