An oil change as a "pleasant neighborhood experience?" I didn't think so but Jiffy Lube had other plans. I pulled in expecting the usual: wait, sigh, scroll my phone, question my life choices while watching fluorescent lights hum overhead. Instead, I got something closer to a well-run pit stop staffed by people who genuinely seem like they want your car to keep surviving in this economy. The staff was immediately friendly in that effortless way that doesn't feel scripted or forced. No awkward upselling theater, no mysterious jargon that makes you feel like your car is secretly falling apart in slow motion. Just straightforward explanations, clear pricing, and the unsettling realization that this might actually be... easy? The service itself was fast--like "wait, that's it?" fast--but still had that thorough, checklist-complete energy that reassures you they didn't just pop the hood, nod seriously, and hope for the best. It was efficient without feeling rushed, which feels increasingly rare in the modern world. And then there's the location situation, which honestly deserves its own review section called "The Accidental Food Corridor of Daly City." While waiting, you're basically within walking distance of an entire supporting cast of snack destiny: Little Caesars quietly doing what it does--hot, fast, unapologetic pizza energy Subway offering the classic "I should probably be responsible" sandwich option 7-Eleven standing ready with existentially necessary snacks and beverages Krispy Krunchy Chicken bringing dangerously crispy temptation into the mix Starbread Bakery quietly sabotaging any intention of "just being nearby" with warm, sugary inevitability It starts to feel less like an oil change appointment and more like you accidentally scheduled yourself into a snack-themed amusement district while your car gets serviced. By the time everything was done, the car was ready, the pricing felt fair, and I was briefly convinced that this might be the most efficiently located cluster of practical errands and emotional food decisions in Daly City. I came in for maintenance. I left with a refreshed vehicle, a suspicious appreciation for operational efficiency, and a mental list of baked goods I definitely didn't need but absolutely considered. Come hungry and Go Big!!! read more

I was recommended to this location for an oil change via my cousin. Being new to the bay area, I needed a service, but knew there were an overwhelming amount of options so went by word-of-mouth for a recommendation. The staff here were very jovial and joking with us in the lobby while we waited on our vehicles for service. I was in and out in less than hour and was able to use a coupon I found online. Totally worth the trek from SF for quality service. read more

This Jiffy lube takes advantage of their customers. They overcharged me for maintenance work. I was in a rush to get to another appointment for my son. It was my mistake to not taking the time for reading over each option but my husband and i had been to jiffy lube before and had great experiences, but this is ridiculous how they took advantage of me. I have attached a photo of my invoice. I had a dealership mechanic look over the invoice and he encouraged me to write a review so customers are aware of how this jiffy lube location runs. read more

I've never taken my car to a chain/franchised auto shop before so I didn't know what to expect. I ended up being very satisfied with my service! I, like many people, always have a lot of anxiety when it comes to getting auto service thanks to bad experiences from the past. But I was very impressed by the system they have which definitely decreased my anxiety and made me feel like this is a reliable business! I came on a weekday in the early afternoon hoping there wouldn't be too much of a wait. As I drove in to the lot and over a hose on the ground, it rang a bell inside which alerted the staff who then come out to greet you. Such a great idea, because at all the other places I've been to was kind of haphazard and you just try to get someone's attention. They immediately took my car in to the shop and there were just a couple of other customers ahead of me. All of the staff were very friendly and professional. You get an estimate before service and then when it's done, they'll read through it for you line by line on a screen, you pay, and then they print you out an invoice. Excellent system! Efficient and transparent. The waiting area is small with only a few seats, but in my time there, many people came and left because the service really is quick. I did check out the prices in old pictures before coming and they seemed okay, but I was bummed to find that the prices have gone up even higher within just a 1-2 year time span. They seem to be higher than locally owned places I've been to, and for this reason, I will probably just stick to my regular garage. But if I'm ever in a pinch and need fast service, I would totally come back here to do it. read more

Average service. Egregious pricing. Almost $130 for just an oil change on a newer civic. Those higher prices sure aren't paying for quality employees, so I wonder how much is getting pocketed by JiffyLube corporate. Probably most of it. read more

Very fast service. Got oil change and tire rotate $130 in 30min. Fast and friendly people. Will drop by again for next service.

I have been going to Jiffy Lube for years. Recently, I had discovered that the recent technician torqued my drain plug on my car causing my oil pan to crack. I have not been in a recent accident, and I had not had issues with oil leaking out of my car ever. They could not change my oil because the drain plug was tightened too much from the previous service. Initially, I was told that this happens with old cars and was deceived by being told this was a car error. Also, I was told that the recent technician "forgot" to mention the oil pain crack and the drain plugs threads being stripped. The technician would have mentioned this the last time because he would not have been able to change my oil at all... I did my research, called my dealership, contacted a reliable mechanic, and I discovered that this was a technician error. I came back into the store, and I could tell that they knew that they were caught in a lie. They changed my oil but the damage is still there. I am now stuck with a $1,300 car repairment due to the lack of professional care. Jiffy Lube did not own up to their mistake the first or second time I came in. They should have made it right. After years of service, I will not be coming back to Jiffy Lube. read more

I came in for an oil change and they said I needed a new battery. They gave me a smaller battery that was oozing purple and died a couple weeks later... I called them and they said the most they could do was switch the battery out for free if I got the car towed there... The battery was so drained that the polarity had reversed and I couldn't jump the car read more

Jiffy Lube - They broke my engine cover and they are looking for more so I can pay more - Auto Repair Near Me - Daly City, California

Went to this Jiffy Lube for my first Oil Change. I paid for the premium upsell. Two weeks later my check engine light went off. I used an ODBII scanner and it said the problem was my oil filter. Seemed odd since my car is less than six months old and I i just had an oil change. I took my car into a garage and they noted the light was due to an oil filter as I mentioned. The guy then asked if I ever had an oil change, to which I replied I had a month ago. He laughed and said that's impossible because the drain bolt was still in factory condition complete with an unbroken seal. He even let me under try car to take a photo. It's crazy to me that this Jiffy Lube sold me a $99 oil change and literally did not change any oil. It does appear that my tires were rotated since a scratch on one of the tires moved locations, but this location lied to me and stole my money. It's dangerous and unethical to charge someone for an oil change and not perform it. read more

Jiffy Lube - Look at the yellow seal, drain bolt has never been touched. - Auto Repair Near Me - Daly City, California

Take all my cars there. Usually get in and out but they do get busy at times. Rudy is my guy. He was reluctant to rotate my wheels because he saw my wheels were aftermarket. He knows me by face and I assured him that I trust him as he's serviced many of my vehicles. Teamwork is good, morale is good and they are very professional and efficient. read more

Been coming here for years for oil changes. Had my brakes checked and when they put the tires back on they cross threaded the bolt. Had to get a new rotor installed. Never coming here again, HUGE waste of money read more

I called the shop first before leaving the house to find out the current wait time for an oil change. The person on the phone said, "no wait" and he proved to be right. When I arrived, my car was taken in for service within 5 minutes. Here is the breakdown of the visit: - A worker checked me in and got my information. - They voluntarily took out my engine filter to show me its condition. They told me it wasn't that dirty and didn't need to be replaced. - I was asked what type of oil I wanted to use - They checked my windshield wipers and asked if I wanted them to replace them. - They let me know it'd be a 20 minute wait and I would pay for the service once it's done. - It ended up taking about 30 minutes before my car was done. I was charged $49.99 (before taxes) for 5 quarts of conventional, non-high mileage oil and new oil filter. They also voluntarily checked my tires and noticed a nail in one of my tires, and they also wiped down some of my windows. All around, good and friendly service. The reason why I rounded down to 4 stars is because of 2 reasons: 1) The wait--one of my biggest pet peeves is when someone tells me it's going to be x minutes but it ends up taking way longer. I'd rather it be the other way around where you overestimate and it ends up being shorter! 2) It was nice they wiped down my windows, but they must have done it with some not-so-clean towels. My windshield ended up having a bunch of streak marks that was not there before, and now it's hard to see out of it when the sun is at a certain angle. Now I have wipe them down again, even though they were fine before. PRO TIP: You can find a coupon online for $7 off. read more

Very helpful / knowledgeable staff. They explained things to me in a simple, straightforward way. I'll be coming back to this location.

DON'T JUST DON'T. Day after oil change leaking oil. Cap was not put on correctly. Ruined threads and now the cap can't be put on. I took it to another jiffy lube that said needs new oil pan. They offered to fix it... sort of - try to rethread not replace - if I drive back to that specific location. I live 2.5 hours away. No thank you. read more

This is just right up the street from my house and I have never had an issue at this jiffy lube! The staff is friendly and welcoming and they know what they are doing! Oil change prices are about average. I would give a total of 4.5 stars only because some time in busy days the area around is small and limited so try to plan your visit accordingly! read more

WARNING: DO NOT GO HERE!! THEY BROKE MY F$&@ing CAR!!!! These guys totally just broke my radiator and made me think it was "due to erosion." And to top it off, they didn't offer me an apology, a discount, or an explanation. The guy at the counter showed me the issue and said I shouldn't drive my car, but when I said I live down the street, he said "oh, okay." Big mistake. Look, I'm a reasonable guy, so I thought I could drive this thing home since I live less than a quarter mile from the place. I pull up to the house, and the whole damn car is smoking!!!?! I had to pay full price so they can brake my car! I could not go back right away because I had to call around and look for a shop to TOW my car to, but seeing how it was after 5, it was too late. This was very, very frustrating and now I'm wondering if they even performed the basic $50.05 oil change I paid for. They also broke my wife's movie premiere lanyard, and I have no clue where it is. It's of sentimental value and now it's gone. The old me would have handled this in a very different way, but I just want to let everyone know what happened and to be very cautious before you choose this place to get your oil change. Lesson learned. Never ever go to this place. Buyer beware. read more

I've been to this places a few times now and never been disappointed. The staff is friendly, and super speedy. I came at time with no customers and they had me in and out in less than 20 minutes. Heck, they even cleaned my windows and vacuumed my carpet. There's no reason to keep putting off oil change! read more

I have been bringing my car here for the past 4-5 years now but on July 7 I went here to get an oil change and do my errands after. I found out that they broke my side mirror when they're trying do the maintenance. They didn't offer me help how to fix it and they still charge me full price on oil change. And to the guy who processed my payment don't expect your customers to say "thank you" when you're trying to be an asshole and not trying to help them when you guys fuck up someones car. read more

I live an honest life. I believe in treating others as I would want to be treated. I never think about "getting over on someone" or cheating as something acceptable. That being said I had my wife go to get an oil change today at Jiffy Lube. For about $40 they promised to change the oil, vacuum, check and fill air in tires, top off the fluids, etc. Sounded fine to me. But as they changed her oil, they claimed she needed a cabin air filter. (Which was not true) So my wife unwittingly said ok, thinking that she needed it, so why not... When she got the bill at the end it was $40 for the oil change and $62 for a replacement of a filter that I could of done for $10. So my question is, as a man who lives an honest life, that loves his wife and takes it personal when she is bamboozled, how would you have reacted?!?! Let me tell you what I did... I called and told them that you cheating my wife is like cheating me and that I would be there momentarily to get my $62 back or there would be consequences and repercussions. I was ready to raise Hell like they were all atheists in Jiffy Lube. To their credit the manager was ready to clear up the situation right away when I arrived and he told me they would refund the $62. I am happy that they were ready to make peace with me, but I hate the fact that they thought it is ok to cheat my wife. To those going for an oil change, be careful, they will try to charge extra. They say they will vacuum your car but they really don't. I know because I spilled cranberries in there last week and they are still there! To Jiffy Lube, honesty is the best policy. If my wife comes back for an oil change. Do the oil change. Don't try to lube me and rape me of my money. Or next time you try to sell my wife a filter, my next conversation with you guys will be UNFILTERED... read more
