The mechanic was great and not pushy at all. He explained everything simply and didn't pressure me to buy extra things. Their prices are reasonable and my oil change was quick!
Beware of the Oil Stop 3,000 mile con game! Although the service is a bit expensive it is good along with the products. The problem is they will advise you to return at 3,000 mile intervals for oil changes when in fact all or almost all modern auto manufacturers recommend it at 5,000 to 7,000 miles. Not only are they being dishonest with their customers they seem to have no moral responsibility toward misuse of our resources and creating waste. This is a corporate issue and I have nothing against the people working there but... read more
Stripped my drain plug. Wanted a quick oil change as I was overdue. This location tightens your oil drain plug before they loosen it. That caused them to strip it. First my Dad was a mechanic and I grew up doing all the work on my car and multiple other vehicles. The drain plug was tight at the last oil change that I did my self. They should first loosen the plug, and then tighten it back to torque if they want to check if it is ok. By tightening an already torqued bolt they can and obviously do strip plugs. Will re-post aft... read more
Young workers are very dedicated to their work, however it appears a few do not care about the customer's time. As I drove up they waved me into a bay behind another vehicle, they started working on my car and I told them that all I wanted was an oil change. No problem they continued working on my car then later they asked me to backup and go into a different bay that was empty. They started working on my car in the new bay. Then a truck drove up from the opposite direction of the bay from the street the front of my car and ... read more
Business response:
Wayne, We are very sorry your recent visit to our San Mateo Oilstop involved such a busy time. Unfortunately and as you found out, this is a very popular Oilstop and is frequently very busy. We try very hard to service vehicles in the order they arrive, but this is not always possible, depending on what a particular Guest wants done to his/her vehicle. It may appear that someone's friend was serviced before you, but you must realize this Oilstop location has Guests, who have been returning since the store opened in 1995. The... read more
Had a great experience here. Made a lot of offers to what I may need for the car but didn't insist. Sat in the car the entire time too. Good job guys
Honestly this place is great! They're helpful and not pushy. This is my second time and Fuiva was super nice and he made sure I was attended quickly and made sure to answer all my questions! So I'll be back!
1st timer Printed the Yelp Coupon- YES ($10 off!) 10 min from my work - YES Justin was super helpful and friendly! I let him know I needed to get back to work ASAP. Often when you are a female- anything car related can be intimidating/awkward. The service was super great .. it's a oil change, but you go back if you feel welcomed right? It's true they give you something to drink and I even got a free car wash ticket at the end! Only minus would be if they are busy then it can take up to a hour wait for about 2 cars.. but besi... read more
Awesome service! I came in since my tires needed air. And they were very friendly and accommodating. By providing the service on the house, along with a cold bottle of water to boot! Thank you guys!
Love coming here to get my car's oil change. When it's not busy you can be on your way fairly quickly but if it's busy be prepared to wait. They offer complementary drinks and WiFi, which is great if I have something important to work on while they are working on the car. I don't like that they always try to sell you extras but I just politely decline. Before coming, I always check their website for coupons! Overall, a great place and the guys are always super nice!
