Response to Carrie B. review from 7/23/2017
Please correct the facts.
* Your vehicle by manufacture requirement must use at the very minimum a Synthetic Blend motor oil in a 0/20 weight. This oil is not available in a Non Synthetic form.
* Had we not used that type of oil, it could result in premature engine and component wear, higher and inefficient gas consumption and lower performance.
* You had been in 2 previous visits and each visit prior had used the Synthetic Blend 0/20 oil.
* You were asked at greeting if you wished to continue using the same oil, this was your opportunity to ask, what is the price, can I use a lower grade oil, etc. You did not.
* Please note in your review that your vehicle REQUIRES that type and weight of oil for warranty and performance reasons.
* As to upgrades, etc, are you stating that as a professional Full Service Oil Change facility that we should not notify our customers of the safety aspect of having all of your bulbs, turn signal, brake lights, etc in good working order to protect the vehicle occupants?
* Should we not at the least, let the customer have the opportunity to inspect their engine and cabin air filters if dirty and in need of a change and let the customer make that determination?
* These are called service recommendations, and are not "forced" on the customer, only offered. We feel the customer should have all of the pertinent facts available and to allow them to make an informed decision.
* Should we automatically assume that our customers wish to use the cheapest oil available, or should we determine manufacture recommendations and/or requirements and use the appropriate oils and fluids as described by the vehicle manufacture?
* We do not and have not recommended changing interior lights bulbs as stated in your review. We do however, notify and recommend that when exterior lighting are not operating that the customer have them corrected by means of replacement. Most of our Light bulb replacements are $4.95 each which includes the labor of installation.
* We have been in business in Lexington for almost 30 years, and before in Salisbury for over 50 years. We have maintained our customer relationships by means of offering quality service, parts and fluids, an affordable service in a timely manner. We strive to provide top notch information and service every visit. read more
