Oil change service near Manhattan, NY

Scott is a fantastic auto mechanic! So thankful i found this shop. Scott diagnosed my honda element and isolated the transmission problem. He backed me up and got honda to install a new transmission for free. I am forever a THE GARAGE customer and tell all my friends and family.

The oil change price is fair,conveinent location, takes about 40 mins to get your oil change done. The only real negative is with every car I seen them service, they find additional work that needs to be done to the car and they are hard sell about it. I can only speak for myself, when I waited for the oil change 6 people were in the waiting room when I arrived, they spoke to all 6 about additional work needed. When they came to me, I declined the work (they stated additional fluids needed changing- interesting thing is I had those fluids changed 3 months ago, not by them, and I know it was done) After I declined the additional service I was told the car would be ready shortly, 10 mins later the car was not done but they spoke to me again about the fluids being changed. They brought with them a bottle of dirty fluid this time, was it mine? Who knows but I doubt it. I will not go back to this place which is a shame. They used to be a great place to get your oil change done.

Took my car in for four new tires. Was told an hour. Over two and a half hours later, paid and headed home. On reviewing the work in the daylight, no caps were installed on three of the new valves. I couldn't tell if there was a cap on the fourth valve because they had hammered on the hubcap over it....... On further inspection I found that all of the wheel balance weights had been left only partially tapped on, and that they had up to four weights in the space of only eight inches or less along the rim. It looked as though they just kept adding them on. Took the car there and they said they'd put on valve caps and re-balance the tires. The desk guy came over in the middle of the redo and said very happily"the balance was only a little off". Okay, well that means that it was off, right???? I leave the place again in the dark and reinspect the van the next day in the light. Two caps on the tire valves fit, and two other caps that were too small were jammed just on the tips of the other two new valves???? The new tire weights were also not fully installed and masses of them clumped around the rims. I think this place just wants to wear you down so you get sick of going back complaining. I mean really, Two trips and they can't even put caps on the new tire valves??????? This place is awful. Two other customers there complaining in the two times I was there. Stay away, they're clueless and hope you are as well.

YI was extremely pleased with my service. My technicians name was Mathew, he was very polite as well as professional. He knew exactly what he was talking a out, was very knowledgeable about vehicles in general. I had my axle fluid changed both air filters the oil done a power steering fluid flush and the next time I came back I was lucky enough to actually have him serve me again along along with Chris a manager I am guessing cause he had a special red shirt on. Then this last time I came in had my fuel injection service done and brought back some pep in my vehicles engine as well as gas mileage also had my battery replaced. Although I spend a decent amount of money Mathew made me feel not as if I was being pressured or done wrong. He also made a great point how it was preventive maintenance and would of cost triple maybe more having this all done by a shop or dealer. I come from from a family of 9 children I will definitely be sending them there as well as tell all my friend. Thank you Matt & thank you valvoline ! GREAT SERVICE!
