Good service but I can't help but feel that they were trying very hard to upsell me on a variety of items. This is despite telling the tech multiple times I don't have enough money for additional repairs. It felt pushy and made me uncomfortable. I don't know if this is how Valvoline trains their people, but it borders on high pressure tactics. I did not like that.
by 2008 HONDA ACCORD EX Owner on 11/05/2025Verified Service
Horrible experience. I will never go back again. They were sloppy when they added oil and spilled on my engine. They removed the engine filter to show me how dirty it was and when they put it back in they forced it back in so now the seal is all jacked up. They suck!
by 2020 RAM 2500 LONGHORN Owner on 06/08/2025Verified Service
Had my truck serviced here today. What a great experience! Great service at a reasonable price. No high pressure up sales involved at all.
Such a knowledgeable and professional team working in the service bays. Very impressive to watch them work.
Highly recommend Valvoline service.
"Macie" was so kind, helpful and attentive during my service.
Great asset to the Valvoline Team!

Freddy and Roger were awesome! They answered every question professionally and then on the way out the Manager came over and made sure everything was alright and double checked some gages,.
Top notch service!
by 2013 LEXUS RX 350 Owner on 01/29/2026Verified Service
They were very friendly and efficient. They made recommendations as to what services I may need, but were not pushy at all.and explained everything that they were doing. I will definitely continue to go to there.

Process was easy and straight forward. They will try to sell you on everything, but it's part of their process.
by 2015 HYUNDAI SONATA SPORT/LIMITED Owner on 12/02/2025Verified Service
They gauge their customers. But, they are fast and friendly. That 15 minute oil change is worth the extra $30/40 when you just don't have time to take the car somewhere else.

Had tire rotation and didn't think I had to ask to check my tire pressure but I ask to have tire pressure check and they didn't do it.That was the main reason I had a tire rotation done so I went home and air in my tires my self

A+. I asked them not to ask me about any upgrades, just to change my oil. They did just that and it was wonderful.
by Steven B. on 10/01/2024Verified Service
Price was fair. Loved their attention to detail. This was my first non-dealership service. They found 3 bolts missing from a skid/drip plate below the oil pan? Good to know... I will get 3 bolts and put them in... without Valvoline's heads up I wouldn't have known.
by 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ C300 Owner on 01/17/2024Verified Service
I appreciate the efficient and prompt service provided by Valvoline with no appointment needed. The quick and expert assistance, coupled with excellent communication and respect, makes it a hassle-free experience. The option to bring my own oil is also convenient, and I find the pricing satisfactory. Thanks to the Valvoline team for their expertise and reliable service.

It was great, stayed in car while they checked fluid levels and air pressure in tires. Also showed my the new oil level on dipstick. And showed me how to clear the low oil warning light. I was very appreciative of them being open on Christmas Eve because I was going to drive up to Las Vegas on Christmas am.
by 2013 LEXUS ES 350 Owner on 10/17/2022Verified Service
Excellent. Kind and skilled Technicians. They replaced the Cabin Air Filter which hadn't been replaced prior to purchase of vehicle. The techs also did the oil and filter change, filled air in tires to meet all same air pressure requirements, added windshield wiper fluid, headlights and reset maintenance button. They were honest, courteous, and awesome.
by 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SPORT Owner on 10/16/2022Verified Service
I actually only got the inspection as we could not open the hood on my vehicle due to it being locked by the dealership. They crew at Valvoline were so nice and helpful! The team actually saved my car engine a few months prior by letting me know it was a year and model that consumed oil rapidly and I was able to get it replaced under warranty. This team knows their stuff! I highly recommend them.
by 2016 KIA K900 Owner on 05/02/2021Verified Service
The oil filter they had to fit my car was missing the gasket. They only had 1. They suggested I go to one of their other locations 15 minutes away. Wouldnt have it delivered. Didnt offer to buy one at the auto parts store 100 feet away. Didnt have time to go to other location. Never got the oil change.

Valvoline really dropped the ball this time. After completing my oil change they didnt safely secure the engine cover on the bottom of the car. When I herd the loud scraping nose I had to pull over on the freeway. I called triple A and all they could do was tape it back in place. Valvoline did Apologize and the next day they fixed and secured the engine cover. To bad they just didnt do the job right the First time.

I had a solid "check engine" light and an intermittent "oil" light showing up. I checked with the folks that did my oil change. They recommended I go to my mechanic...Angel's to the rescue! I was able to get it in, Angel's called me after the diagnostics, the issue was fixed the same day, and I was back on the road without the concern of causing further damage to the engine.
