[2150] Allen in Doraville, GA Long Time
to Change Oil
This is store 2106 in Doraville ga
. My truck has been in stall for 45 min for only a oil
change. They are very slow at this place.they get your car
in and hold it. It has taken them tow hours to change oil.
[2149] Albert in Duluth, MN Loose
Filter Results in Blown Engine
Here's another blown engine story
about Jiffy Lube in Duluth, MN.
Driving down road and oil light on my 2012
eclipse came on... only when I idled at stoplight, as I accelerated it
immediately went off. First time the idiot oil light had ever came on.
Pulled off the road and checked oil and was down 2 quarts. Drove to
nearest gas station a mile or so and put in 2 quarts, rechecked and it
was still down 2 quarts...on a 4 cylinder. Had it towed to dealer
where I bought it and the technician stated the oil filter was hand
loose had been leaking from the filter and there was a catastrophic
loss of oil.
Jiffy lube was where I last had oil changed,
No return call from them, assistant Manager immediately became hostile
and apparently the Manager never got message or decided not to do
anything, NO CALL BACK! The Service manager at the dealer that
diagnose the issue will not provide a written statement, prefer not to
get involved. Ditto from White Bear Lake Mitzubishi who would not
honor warranty nor provide any documentation of what happened to
engine, even though light never came until all oil was gone. The
additional warranty from Sterling won't cover anything as they say it
is manufactures warranty as it was under 60,000 miles. $4500 for used
engine block and labor putting in.
Screwed every way possible by everyone
involved!! God bless American Businesses for doing the right
thing...NOT!!
UPDATE: I have the wrong company and would like to retract. The
company should be Lube Pro's. Please retract my original statement

Aaron in Omaha, NE Forgot to Tighten
Filter
I just noticed my engine
was knocking. I have a modest Kia Optima, just 60k miles
and usually get my oil changes done at JL. I checked the
oil immediately and found it to be empty merely 60 days
after my service. I added oil and began trouble shooting.
I found the leak at once beneath the oil filter. I went
under the car and was able to wiggle and hand-tighten the
filter back in. I let the car sit for a couple of days
with large, new shop towels under the engine. No leaks. It
is apparent that they failed to tighten the filter
properly. I have spent 500.00 on a rental so far and have
not heard back from them yet. I am not encouraged at all
by what I have read here. It looks like I am simply
screwed...
[2147] Zo
in Las Vegas, NV Crash Test Dummies
Your Company has a bunch of Unsagacious Crooked
Employees at the 9520 W. Tropicana. Customer on and off for over 8
years with oil changes. Went for an oil change last week and the one
of the crash test dummies that worked there forgot to put the oil cap
back on. Of course oil went everywhere. Took it back, had them clean
it and refund my money with a new oil change and a hand written $30.00
Coupon for a Coolant Flush, which is $109. (steep price anyway - can
do it myself with a water hose, none-the-less) Told me they would help
with the Coolant Flush.
Went back today to get the coolant flush done,
and another crash test dummy is telling me I have to get an oil change
again. I informed him he is smoking Crack. "But they need to be done
together" he says. I am not stupid like others in Vegas. He says he
will run It FREE. He then proceeds to tell me the price for everything
is $179.84. WTF??? How is it more than a Chevy Dealership??? Been in
law enforcement for 16 years, I send quite a few Officer with Fleet
L-Cars and their POVs (Personal Vehicles)and this is how I am treated.
I will be smiling when this place gradually rips so many people off
that they wont return. I will be filing a BBB complaint and if I have
to will go out of my way to ensure with posting, signs, media calls
and inform other Officers to avoid this dump and the name Jiffy Lube
like the Plague. Are you guys for real?
I really hope a somebody sees this that actually
is in Corporate and truly cares about their service. Even crap service
and other silly businesses I never write bad comments. Its not me, but
this is over board. I would like an apology, which this day in age
might be too much to ask, but it would be a start and make a
difference. Need to Fire the Managers at this location and start anew.
Business 101, cut the poisonous cells before it pollutes the whole
body.

Boston, MA Loose Plug
I went to Jiffy Lube at 950 Morrissey Blvd in
Boston, MA They left the plug loose and didn't tighten it back
up. I filed a claim and they turned it down saying the temporary plug
as they called it was stripped. Well it is not and never was. They
just left it lose. Now I have to sue them in Court.
[2145] Todd in
Wichita, KS Stolen Phone
04/03/2014 2:15 pm.
Took my company truck in for service at Jiffy Lube located at 1624 E
Pawnee Wichita, KS. Owned by RP Bell Ent. my I phone 4 was left in
console. Service done, vehicle returned and I drove home. Ten minute
drive, When I arrived home, I reached for my phone and found it gone.
I called it and it went straight to voicemail. I immediately returned
to the J
iffy Lube and informed
the store manager. He apparently “questioned “ his employees and all
denied having the phone. I tried to have my serv provider locate the
phone, they couldn’t /wouldn’t do it for me. I was told by store
manager that they would “get to the bottom of situation” and inform me
either way. 4 days pass and I hear nothing from anyone. After
calling corp. office, and waiting on hold for nearly 30 min. I got
the name and number of the franchise owner locally. I called. I
received a call back from Mike, district manager. I found him
insolent, condescending and rude. He informed me that I should just
go get a new phone, in a round about kind of way. That leaves us at
the present. Me with no phone, and no real means to replace it, and
Jiffy Lube not assuming any responsibility for it’s employees and
their actions

Christopher in Franklin, TN Hubcap Missing
On Sunday February 16th, I
redeemed a Groupon at the Jiffy Lube at
1120
Murfreesboro Rd,
Franklin,
TN.
As part of that Groupon, a tire rotation was performed. The hubcaps
are removed during this process. Upon arriving home, I noticed
that the hubcap on the passenger rear side was gone.
I called the manager on Saturday, February 22nd, and he
asked me to call him back Monday. The burden of communication was
shifted right back to me, the customer. He also claimed he was going
to “check the video”. This is a false premise. The hubcap was
reattached, just not reattached correctly, which is why it obviously
fell off on my way home. An HD quality camera would not make a
difference here. I was able to call back on Wednesday, February
26th. I got the assistant manager, who informed me that the
manager was not there. He assured me I would get a call back that same
business day. I didn’t.
It is now March 6th. I have yet to hear anything. I am very
disappointed and am bringing this to your attention in hopes that you
can replace the hubcap. The services performed retailed at over $70.
The Groupon cost me $36, and I paid $3.33 in tax. So for $40, I got an
oil change, my tires rotated, and lost a hubcap- not an ideal
transaction.
A used replica of this hubcap will cost me $25 online. It is a 2004
Sienna, and to add insult to injury, it is my wife’s car. Can
you imagine doing a favor for the woman you love and you come back
missing a hubcap because someone at JiffyLube cannot re-attach a piece
of plastic to a tire rim? One wonders if the “camera” picked up an
employee sending a text message with one hand while my hubcap was
“attached” with the other.
The worst part is that literally no one seems to care that this
happened. Mistakes occur, and they should be remedied. In this case, I
was brushed off and ignored.
JiffyLube is the highest cost provider in its “quick oil change”
niche. One should expect the highest level of service- is that wrong?
As of now, JiffyLube has flopped miserably.

Michelle in Lake City, FL Air Destroys
Pump
1/7/14 - Wanted to report a problem with an
oil change on a 2011 Ford Diesel, wherein Jiffy Lube, Lake City,
Florida, broke the housing during the oil change, but air had already
gotten into the line. Therefore, fuel pump had to be replaced, but
they deny any wrong doing & we spent $665 replacing a bad fuel pump
that wasn't bad before Jiffy Lube changed the oil. The Ford dealer
service manager stated he had seen this before. He explains that air
gets into system and aerates and hammers the fuel pump, damaging it.
Jiffy Lube told Jimmy -- to go somewhere to
have it fixed and they would pay for it. Of course, no they would
not.
[2140] Chef in Warminster, PA Engine
Destroyed From Loose Oil Filter
I took My 2011
kia Optima in to Jiffy Lube In Warminster PA, although I live in
Princeton, NJ where I only take my car for service at the dealership
but thought I would be over the oil change and decided to get quick
Oil change at store # 262 located at 600 west street road, Warminster,
PA. on January 29th at 46,040 miles and recommended date to return on
sticker and invoice states 51,040 which I have not reached yet.
On March 10th I
was driving from work in NJ to Warrington PA and 12 miles away from
Warrington I heard clicking and knocking noise in my quiet engine of a
car that was certified new 7 months prior. I check under the hood for
the noise and to see where it was coming from and could not
determined, I checked dipstick and found there was no oil, I walked
across the parking lot to a advance auto and purchased 3 qts of oil,
added it to engine and strayed over in PA until morning and had the
car taken back to jiffy lube.
Jiffy lube
checked the car and admitted verbal and on paper that they failed to
tighten oil filter and drain plug where they also forgot the tamper
seal around the plug which caused the oil to drain out of the car.
I was told that
a GM would call regarding my engine noise and how we would take care
of this, that call never came. I ended up calling back the shop and
they got the gm the message call back and he did after hours of
waiting. the GM stated that he was waiting to hear from higher
up and that someone would be contacting me.
the district
manager contacted me, he stated that an adjuster would be going out to
the dealership where my car was, the dealerships diagnostic had
determined the engine was damaged to lack of oil and needed a new
engine which cost 8,800.00, the adjuster never went out to the
dealership has he has told me he was going to do, he called me back
denying the and claim because he stated that I was 1000 miles over my
3000 mile warranty however was not scheduled for another oil change
until 5000 miles, also how was I to know that the oil was draining out
of the car because the proper work was not preformed.
I m taking all
doc. to my attorney along with the finding of the dealership
diagnostics and sue. I only wanted my car repaired back to
running conditions and have gotten no where and I think its wrong that
this could happen to a consumer.
[2139]
Sam in Lawrenceville, NJ Engine Destroyed
I have had a terrible
experience with Jiffy Lube that has cost me over $5,500. I took my car
in for a simple oil change before travelling and it billowed thick
white smoke when they were done. The manager wrote down that the car
was running fine when I brought it in (which it definitely was), and
that it left smoking. The car began overheating soon after and the
resulting repairs have cost me a lot of money, including a blown head
gasket ($2,600) in addition to the amounts specified below to the
manager. The manager told me “he didn’t believe they did anything
wrong and wouldn’t do anything for me,” so now I’m out the money on a
tight student budget.
Below is the email I
sent to the manger. I would really like help getting them to pay for
my repairs.
Sam
Hi Damon,
There are two attachments-the first is the Jiffy Lube invoice from the
day of service and the second is the complete invoice from the auto
repair shop. Below please find the chronology of events pertaining to
my BMW X3, and my desired resolution.
Friday, August 9, 2013- I finished my summer internship and took my
car to Jiffy Lube to get a scheduled oil change at 9:00am in
preparation for the 450 mile trip back to Chapel Hill, NC from
Lawrenceville, NJ. My car was running great, without any issues or
warning lights anytime that day or in the preceding months before I
took it into Jiffy Lube for the oil change.
Upon completion of the oil change, I watched as my car was started and
billowed out heavy white smoke. The car misfired with a few codes,
and all of the technicians gathered to determine the problem. The car
was then driven around for a few minutes to see if the smoke
dissipated. When the smoke did not go away, you ordered another oil
change. After the second change, the exact same smoke occurred, and
the crew gathered for some time to determine the solution.
When no conclusion could be reached, you wrote down the occurrence on
the invoice and I left concerned and frustrated.
I
went back home, and my wife and I determined to chance the drive back
to Chapel Hill, as we had a flight from Chapel Hill the next morning.
We packed our things and left, the whole time watching white smoke
come out of the exhaust.
Other than the smoke, the car performed and got us back home, where we
parked the car and left town the next day.
When we returned to Chapel Hill, the car began to overheat. Nobody
had driven the car while we gone, and I was alarmed. However, the
overheating seemed to be an isolated incident. As the car suddenly
rose in temperature, we turned it off and then it didn't overheat
again for a week or so. Finally, my wife was driving a couple of
weeks later on Monday, September 2nd and the car overheated quickly
and then shut down as she was driving on the freeway, with the check
engine light coming on. We got the car towed to Import Auto the next
morning for repair as shown on their invoice.
The issue was immediately identified the bad crank case valve as the
reason for the smoke, misfiring, and overheating-instigating other
issues. Correspondingly, the thermostat and the water pump broke along
with some hoses, the radiator, and the cooling fan. The car was in the
shop from September 3rd to September 18th and the entire repair cost
$4,451.65. I am aware that some of the services performed were
unrelated to the issue-spark plugs, air filter, cabin filter, engine
belts, front differential, brake fluid, and transfer case fluid-as
determined by council I've discussed the issue with. However, there
was significant and costly damage done to my car from the oil change
that I ask for help with, including the following-
towing-$55.00
thermostat/water pump replace-$533.81
CCV valve/hoses replace-$522.27
coolant pipes replace-$597.47
radiator/hoses replace-$685.39
cooling fan-757.60
Total-$3151.54

Coupon Rip-off ReTrucks
I recieved a coupon in the mail for value plus oil change for 19.99.
On 1/10/14 I tried to redeem the coupon and get my truck serviced at
the bear valley, Victorville , Ca. Location. When presenting the
coupon the employee wearing a manager uniform, told me that the coupon
did not apply to trucks. He then informed me that it would cost 69.00.
I told him that was to much. He then said he could do it for 57.00 for
oil change only. I then pointed to the sign in front saying oil change
for 19.99. He then told me that my truck needed 2 more quarts of oil
! I'm no mathamaticion but I'm pretty sure this means rip off. This
is not my first encounter with gouging thru Jiffy Lube. They tried to
charge me more for using my own oil filter and told me it was policy!
I have 2 vehicles and have been a loyal customer with both. I am now
now looking to find an honest service center !
[2136] Charles in Arlington, TX No
"Lube" at Jiffy Lube
I have been a Jiffy Lube
customer of this location for years. Over the weekend, while driving ,
I realized that my suspension squeaked very loudly. When I got home I
crawled under the truck and had my wife turn the steering wheel to
locate the sound. All of the joints squealed metal on metal. I decided
to check the grease on the joints. They were all dry. Jiffy “Lube” had
not lubed anything and I suspected that it had NEVER lubed at my other
visits. I took my truck to this j/l and told them that I needed the
lube that they had missed. The three techs talked among themselves and
told me they would but they could not.
The lube station did not work. Both hoses had broken tips and as long
as they had worked there, it had been broken. In fact, they said they
had NEVER done a lube at “Jiffy Lube”. Several months ago I had to
have all the ball joints replaced on my truck.I had it done at a shop
within 100 yards of this location. I am 54 years old and have never
had to replace ball joints on my or my families vehicles. The lack of
lubrication would most certainly cause premature wear. You cannot
imagine my frustration and anger on finding these NEW JOINTS dry with
NO LUBE. I trusted them to do what they put in writing. They are quick
to push other services, many of which I paid to have performed.
Transmission fluid, transfer case fluid, differential fluids changes
among them. I have no way of knowing if any of them were in fact done.
Since lubes were not done for any of their customers (including
commercial), It is obvious that they have NO regard for trust or
integrity and a willingness to be dishonest.
[2135] Priscilla Oil Filter Problems Destroys
Engine
I went to jiffy lube on January 25th of this year to get a oil change.
On February 6th my car stopped running. I had it towed to a mechanic
shop and the guy said jiffy lube didn't put filter on right and caused
the engine to lock. Because of their negligence I now have to pay
$1,713 for a engine. I want to get reimbursed. Of course they are not
taking responsibilities of their mistakes. I will not let them get
away with this. They damage people's cars all over the world and don't
care about the customers or if they even have money to pay. I don't
know if I should go to small claims court or get a lawyer and sue the
franchise or corporate. I hope you can help me out. I do have receipt
of that service performed.
[2134] Al in Overland Park, KS
Engine Destroyed From Wrong Oil Filter
Oil changed at JL
#1355, Overland Park, KS on 2/12/14. I have a 2003 Chevy S10 pickup,
4.3L V6, manual trans. Oil filter used was MO3614. Long story short,
drove home 20 miles, drove to work on 2/13 app. 8 miles, oil press 0,
check engine and gauges light came on. Find oil filter fell off.
Contact Mgr of store, Shaun King, and told I would have to tow to a
dealer and they could determine if they would reimburse me. Find a
Ford oil filter was used on my Chevy as they didn't have the correct
filter in stock. Dealership finds motor ceased, shrapnel went through
the cooler to my radiator, all need to be replaced.
Quote not
finished till noon on 12/14. Had to keep asking JL when I could get a
rental car. Finally get DM email, Tim Butler, as store could not get
quotes for some reason and send quotes to him since store could not.
4:15 PM on a Friday I am told by DM to get my own rental car as they
could not approve one until Monday at least.
At this point no
apology or compassion to get problem resolved. At this point I have
done all the work to get this problem resolved and waiting for someone
at JL to take this matter serious and get my truck fixed. I have also
posted the complaint on their site.
Repairs for used
engine will be app. $3300, rebuilt engine will add about another
$1000. I will try to update this situation as it progresses.
[2133] Jeanette in Boynton Beach, FL
Forgot To Replace Oil Plug
Ok I always take
my car to CarMax to get the oil changed, but being a Realtor I have
been really busy and could not wait a week for my usual appointment
with CarMax so since I was in the area of Boynton Beach in Florida on
Congress and Woolbright there is a Jiffylube and decided this one time
to get it done there.
on 2/14/14 I went
in got the oil changed, paid and left, I got on I95 and drove about 6
exits to another town which is Boca Raton to meet with a client, once
I arrived I got about 6-10 calls from a number from DC, I let it go to
voicemail but they were pretty persistent in getting in touch with me
so I picked up and it was the employee that did the oil change and he
told me he forgot to put the cap back on my car from the oil tank in
the bottom of the jeep, I WAS ENRAGED!!
I left my client
there, lost her as a client, drove back to Boynton Beach, and I told
them I don't want anyone touching my car, I was going to take it to
CarMax to try to do damage control on my vehicle because the oil had
drained out, the manager said he would do it himself, I insisted and
he refused to give me the car part back, then I phoned he police, my
husband who was on my cell phone spoke to the manager, well we all
decided to let them place the cap back on when they pulled the car
under the work station there was oil everywhere, on my back windows
and windshield wipers, it was everywhere, they cleaned it up, placed
new oil in it, gave me a refund and quit honestly...MY CAR IS NOT
DRIVING THE SAME...there has been damage done to it and I have to take
it at this point to the Jeep dealership. they will for sure hear from
my attorney. AND PLEASE DO
PUBLISH THIS, THANKS.
[2132] Brynlee in Tucson, AZ Lied About
Refund
I am VERY upset
with Jiffy Lube. I had gone to them to have my rotors and brakes
repaired and Jiffy Lube associates messed them up. I had to have them
both replaced again 2 days later at a little place in my hometown. I
was told to send them a copy of that invoice and they would refund me.
That was a LIE. I have never been this disappointed in a company. I
called to speak with District Manager, Richard Soto, and he will never
return my calls/emails. He is very rude. I would like to know who I
need to contact in order to get my refund like I was promised.
[2131] Joe in Wenatchee, WA
Insufficient Oil Added
On Saturday, January 25, 2014, I took my mother's 2007 Volvo XC 90 to
the Jiffy Lube location on 746 South Mission St., Wenatchee, WA 98801,
for an oil change. The oil change was completed, and I was charged
$53.08, which I paid in cash.
On the way home, after driving about 25 miles, the low oil pressure
light came on. After a few more miles, the "Fill Oil" red warning
light came on, and I was fortunate enough to be near a hardware store,
where I purchased some motor oil. I added 1/2 quart of motor oil, and
the light remained on. The car was not driven for the following 6
days. There was no sign of oil leaking.
On Friday, January 31, I took the car to a mechanic in Leavenworth,
WA. On the way, the low oil pressure light came on again. Fortunately,
I was able to get to the auto repair facility before serious damage
was done to my car.
The mechanics determined that the cause of the problem was that the
motor was short at least one and a half quarts of oil.
Jiffy Lube failed to refill my car with the adequate amount of oil.
Fortunately, I was able to avoid having serious damage done to my car.
I will never again go to Jiffy Lube!
[2129] Ciara in
Indianapolis, IN Scamming A Lady
Back in October I went to Jiffy Lube
off of 116th street where I requested a simple conventional oil
change. They refused to service my car unless I at least got the
synthetic blend because they claimed the previous owner of my car
always got full synthetic and that they couldn't switch back to
conventional oil. I ended
up spending $60+ on that oil change. They also claimed I had an oil
leak and a transmission fluid leak. Not even a month later (and wayyy
less than 3,000 miles later), my oil light comes on and I get yet
another oil change. This time at the 79th and Fall Creek Jiffy Lube
where they also claimed I needed new headlights. I got out and checked
and both lights were on and working just fine.
Starting in December I started smelling
oil burning and I thought it might have been my fault for topping off
my oil weeks earlier. Turns out it was because oil was leaking and had
been for awhile. I went to Midas today to get my oil changed and was
told the oil filter cap was loose. The mechanic explained to me that
wherever I last got my oil changed, the person draining the filter did
NOT fully tighten the cap, thus causing an oil leak. He also told me I
had no transmission leak and that wherever I last went was just trying
to make more money off of me. I hate Jiffy Lube and their scams.
[2128] Randy Ramps Prohibit Service
Ramps have been installed at
Jiffy Lube in both stalls and now I have to find some place else to
take my 2007 Corvette because it is to low for the ramps. How about
leaving one stall without the ramp. The Corvette ride height is stock,
it hasn't been lowered. I missing the convenience of taking the car to
Jiffy Lube. I'm just curious what is the purpose of the ramps?
[2127] Jim in Kansas City, MO Too Busy
For His Business
I visited your store # 3089 on
83rd street in Kansas City, Mo twice in 3 days...week of 1-13-14 both
times I was told at least 1 hour just 2 get in the door, both times
only 2 cars on the lot and none waiting. I think your guys needs some
management at this store I ended up on North Oak @ your competition
and paid them more than normal for service...
Johnny, the
first to tell me too busy for my business was dark headed guy, his
shirt said assistant Mgr. There were two cars inside, 1 bay
open, I have been coming to your store for about 2 years with 2
different vehicles and received great service...
I returned 3
days later and a young black headed fellow told me about an hour just
to get in, 2 cars inside and one car in the outside bay to the far
right He stated only 2 men working this day...on extra services
Johnny, If you are the manager I am certain you have some kind of
bonus or goals to meet for this store and your back pocket If
your 2 man crew gets tied up with more than the regular service on a
vehicle your store is not any different than any other shop, slow,
maybe you can get in maybe not. I have been doing business with
Jifffy Lube for over 25 years because they normally give detailed,
good service.

Gary in Tustin, CA Would Not Honor Coupon
I received a
coupon in the mail for $11 off of my next oil change at Jiffy Lube. I
have a 2005 Corvette and the manufacturer recommends Mobil 1 5-30
synthetic oil. I took my own oil and filter (AC) to Jiffy Lube in
Tustin, CA to get the oil changed. I told the person taking the order
that I had a coupon. He said I couldn’t use it because I brought my
own oil and filter and they couldn’t double discount. He said I saved
$ 2 for bringing my own ($6.95) filter and $2 for bringing my own
($45) oil. Total discount was $4. I told him I didn’t bring the oil
and filter to get a discount. I brought the oil because Jiffy Lube
didn’t have the oil I needed. I told him to keep the $4 discount but
to honor the Jiffy Lube coupon. He said he wouldn’t do it. I told
him I wouldn’t be using their service and I took the car to my
neighborhood service station along with the oil and filter. They are
charging me $23 to change the oil and filter, less than what Jiffy
Lube would have charged even with the coupon – had they honored it. I
have a 2013 Ford Explorer and a 1998 Ford F150 that I have regularly
serviced at this Jiffy Lube, but never again. |
