I rate them one star cause there's no way to give them zero here's my story I've been a loyal customer at SpeeDee Oil Change on Hatch Road for years, taking in multiple family cars since they opened. On my recent visit with a brand-new Cadillac, they drained the oil and then told me I needed to replace the oil drain plug for $15. This struck me as odd, since I've owned 15 new cars and never once been told that before. I questioned the manager, but she insisted it was necessary or at least highly recommended for safe operation. Later, two Cadillac mechanics confirmed that my plug was in perfect condition and only ever needs replacement if damaged. The part itself costs around $1.25, so being pressured into a $15 charge felt dishonest. When I called back, the manager acknowledged my loyalty but said the general manager refused to issue a refund. To me, this looks like a predatory upsell and not genuine customer service. After years of trust, I can no longer recommend this shop. read more

I used to take my cars here. Their prices are way over priced now. Its more than $100 for full synthetic. Midas advertises full synthetic for $69 That is too much difference in money. read more

Great Service from Jesse I was recently at the shop when Jesse, the technician, stopped me and said he remembered me. That already made a great impression -- it's not every day someone takes the time to recognize a returning customer. He mentioned their synthetic oil is guaranteed for 7,500 miles, which gave me peace of mind and showed he knows his stuff. Even though I tend to stick with shorter intervals for my older car, I appreciated his honesty and the fact that he took the time to explain things clearly without trying to upsell me. Professional, approachable, and knowledgeable -- Jesse is definitely someone you can trust with your vehicle read more

I was in there two weeks ago for an oil change and i have nothing but good things to say. I arrived slightly before opening and staged my vehicle outside the bay doors, behind another vehicle who beat me to the first spot. Shortly after arriving, David came out and began greeting the vehicle in front of me within a few minutes he was at my vehicle greeting me and asking about the services I would like. I requested a full synthetic oil change and the engine cleaner. After David took my information I was pointed in the direction of the Customer waiting room where there was coffee and hot chocolate. Upon entering the waiting room I was greeted by Fabiola who then also reiterated the complementary coffee and hot chocolate. I briefly chatted with Fabiola when David summoned me to show me a few items that should be addressed (filters, cabin and engine air). I agreed to the replacements and shortly after my vehicle was done. When it came time to pay, Fabiola suggested I check the website for a coupon, in which I did and was able to knock a few bucks off the price. Which is greatly appreciated. So, now 2 weeks later there are no issues occurring and my vehicle is running smoother after a long awaited oil change and filter swap. Thanks for the great service, folks! read more

The convenience of it near my home, I've been a regular at this SpeeDee location over 5 years now for oil change service. I believe must have had change in ownership 2 times already thru the years as I can see different techs come & go and can see different person in charge. This place is a hit & miss to me, depends on time and day I come. Some days really good service, while some not too good. As any other businesses, price keeps changing & increasing. C'est la vie! That's the world we live in sadly I guess. I do like that they give me some discount coupons as a regular. Since last year, I now see they have the Kiosk system for the Five Star thing where I get to earn points for more discounts and such by entering my phone#. Thought that's cool! read more

i dont like this location they are very rude i wouldnt trust them with my car any more my car keeps losing oil & i am sure they make you come back so they can charge you more money ! read more

This location breaks things while doing services then change the notes to state that components of the job were broke prior. Then say they can do follow up job and get you to come in another time. Then when you come back they say they cannot do the service because they don't have skilled mechanics that they have confidence in. They just hope you don't comeback to avoid their botched job and unprofessional services. -Did the standard oil change. Upon picking up the car they advised that they broke the oil pan thread and had to glue the bolt back on , and that next time oil change is due they can then replace the oil pan or heat recoil the threads. -Brought it back for next oil change as they advised, and they then stated that the threads were broken before and that they have a mechanic but they are not confident in their mechanic working on the car and they cannot fix what they broke. Victoria called and introduced herself as the manager lying to me telling me the threads were broken prior to them doing the oil change, which was a lie, the car wasn't leaking oil, and the mechanic told me that he broke the threading putting it back on too tight and had to glue it. She said they don't have a mechanic that can perform the job of a oil pan replacement or re-threading. I was told that Mario is the GM and he will call me. She then told me she was a cashier and not a manager, so she lied again by misrepresenting herself. This place has no integrity They break things They flat out say they having mechanics working on cars that they don't have confidence in, showing furthermore that things are broken while doing common jobs. No integrity at all Thieves predators Can you imagine the number of people they rip off and take advantage of daily? ...The elderly, disadvantaged population, people with no auto maintenance knowledge. This place should not be allowed to operate. Filing claim and pursuing further action! read more

I just had an excellent experience with SpeeDee oil change this morning Thursday November 2nd! I really appreciated the welcoming and friendly customer service, Lizbeth provided for me. She explained everything including pricing and deals to me as well as recommended what type of oil change would be best for my situation. The oil change took only about 15 minutes and they even offered coffee and had a WORKING restroom! Really appreciate you Lizbeth. I'll definitely be back for my future oil changes. read more

Have a seat, this one is going to be long. I will start by saying that I'm giving this 1 star because the girls who work the front area are fun, and always pleasant. Despite how nice they are, this place is an absolute joke. I had a 2004 KIA Rio that I brought in because I was hearing some noises. I was second owner of that car, and had it for 14 years. I KNEW this car. I informed this place that I was sure one of those noises was my alternator, and that there was another noise coming from under the hood that I'd never heard before. So, they, of course, did their basic diagnostic, and informed me that my brakes needed to be fixed, but could not find the cause of the noises. I stood my ground. No. It's not done. Longer story short - they finally found the weird noise under the hood, (had to get new compressor) and after 2-3 weeks of me insisting something was wrong with the alternator, they found out that there was something wrong with the alternator, after I had them stand next to my car on a rainy day, with lights, heater, engine going and hear the noise. Why couldn't they have done that when "diagnosing" the car? I had also informed them that every time I was in idle at a stop, the car would shake, and it got worse when I turned on the a/c. They went to the typical issue: engine mounts. Granted, I did know that I had a cracked mount and a broken mount, but told them it didn't shake even with that problem. I told them that I suspected another mechanic had done something, and that it was probably something not expected. (My very 1st review on Yelp was about that other mechanic - who is now out of business.) LONG story short - after several sets of mounts, which Mario insisted I needed harder mounts, not softer, he declared it was fixed, and told me that my car would always have "some shake" because it was old. NO. Now, from the very start, I asked them to please go over the entire car with a fine toothed comb. I told them more than once about my suspicions that the other mechanic had done something, and I was pretty convinced, (because I KNOW MY CAR!) that it wasn't the typical issues. They refused to accept that. Eventually, I moved to Ventura County, took my car to the KIA dealer, and LO AND BEHOLD, I was right. It was NOT because of the engine mounts. It was a bolt on the catalytic converter (or carburetor, forgot now which he said, but it was one of those starting with a 'c' - I was just too relieved that it was finally being fixed, CORRECTLY) that had been loosened. Guess what? NO MORE SHAKING AT IDLE or with A/C ON, NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT. Just as I said! Also, during all of this - and I mean this went on for months on end - Mario hardly EVER called back when he said he would. I was always chasing him down on the phone - it was frustrating. I even let him know how irritated I was about that when I asked him for a private meeting. He KNEW it was a sore point for me, but all that happened was that the next time he needed to call me back, he did right away, and then he was back to not calling when he said he would. I had also got a new O2 sensor from this place, that had to be replaced again because it was a crappy O2 sensor and failed on the way down - I hadn't even had it a year. I had to pay for yet ANOTHER one. Absolute garbage place to take your car. Do not waste your time nor your money - because they DO NOT listen to you. I will give them 1 more star for getting my brakes done right, and the shocks and axles done correctly. But be prepared for them to ignore you, your experience with your car, not call you when they say they will, and leave your car in their lot for days on end before they even think about starting to look at it. I called their corporate office to tell them that it wasn't the engine mounts, and corporate is just as dismissive as this place is - just that alone should tell you everything. This place should reimburse me for all of the money I put out for NO REASON because they wouldn't listen to me, the first time I walked in there. In lieu of that, I'm warning all of you, go anywhere else. Do not give them your money. read more

I've had a very bad experience with this company. So, be careful of this happening to you. They did several oil changes on my Honda Accord and they input incorrect mileage from the odometer which then was reported to car fax. I found out my car is worth thousands of dollars less because of their error since it cause a milage discrepancy I brought the car there to show them they made a mistake. The manager said he will have the errors corrected/removed within a week. And he has done nothing to help. I went back again after three weeks with the car to find out why they didn't do anything, and the manager wasn't. I left messages sent emails and he's not communicating back to me. He is ghosting me. When I went back the employee there said he couldn't do anything but went on to say that sometimes they can't see the mileage and can't go check in the car to check because of privacy which makes zero sense. So he implied the make up the mileage... So now I have a car with a bad car fax because of their error and decreases the value of this car considerably. I bet I am not the only person this has happened to. I'm very frustrated with this situation. I'd give them a zero score if I could, I'm consulting legal advice. read more

i wish i can put -100. took in my car for simple oil change, up charged me because of my car's high mileage, always looked at because i'm a girl and i don't know shit apparently. i already knew my car needed a serpentine belt before i came in and they tried to sell that on me too, along with a dirty filter which i change frequently. i refused both and just wanted my oil change and now i wake up to go to work and had to borrow my husband's car this morning because i had to switch cars. they fucked my car up and it smells like burning oil. DO NOT GO HERE read more

Been coming here for years and never had an issue...until today. Kid tried to up sale me like I was some old lady who did'nt know better. I tried to tell him what type of oil my car used but he tried to convince me I was wrong. I understand part of the job is to sell, but don't try to insult my intelligence kid. I might have to drive a lil further to get my oil changed from now on but at least I know Jiffy Lube won't try to disrespect me like that. read more

Came in today for oil change. Service was fast, but that's coz I came early too. Staff were friendly and were able to answer my questions and concerns. I have been a customer for years. Thanks, Speedee. read more

Didn't even have to get outta my car. However, the bantering between employees was a bit annoying. It would have been a nicer experience if I could have listened to my radio instead of the trash talk between employees. The girl who greeted me and wrote up my work order was friendly and knowledgeable. No appointment was needed. I went on a Saturday morning about 10 am. There was no wait. Whole experience was overall convenient, and I will go back again. read more

I came here one other time for a oil change and the service was good but the last oil change I got a month and a half ago failed the oil filter wasn't tightened and it leaked a lot of oil on to my driveway and made me late for work so no more business for them read more

I know they were shorthanded but I was number three in line and it took an hour and a half just to get the oil changed and that's all that was done I was never updated I would not recommend SpeeDee oil. Not to mention it was close to $100 read more

Not capable of doing a basic oil change. Ruined my vehicle and is refusing to pay for the competent mechanic it took to fix it. Filed a BBB complaint too. See you in 4 months at court... read more

Previously I left one star for the fact that they would not honor an expired Groupon, when the value I already paid is still valid towards the purchase of an oil change. I called and spoke with Mario and Angelica, who both were very nice on the phone, though me "being taken care of" was essentially me paying the same price again for one oil change. I now have officially paid over 50$ for a standard 30$ oil change. I feel very frustrated. I understand this is somewhat out of their hands but my business here would have remained if the price I had previously paid was honored. read more

Needed an oil change for my Honda and I had a 10 off coupon so I decided to come here. I came right when they were opening up and they had me pull in right away. You could see they were getting a delivery and had some stuff in the way but the guys moved it right away so they could get started. Everyone was nice and definitely following covid protocol. They even reset my oil gauge inside the car and made sure to put both a car seat cover and floor mat which I really appreciated. Check out was easy I just pulled out, walked inside and paid. I ended up getting my air filter changed because they pulled it out and showed me just how dirty it was. They didn't have it in stock but got it ordered and delivered in less than 20 minutes. Overall I am super happy with the service and really was in and out in no time. read more

I went in the get an oil change and on the 2nd day of getting my oil changed i take my car to work and this happens. I was stuck in the backroads in the middle of the night my car was making a super loud noice and i kept getting the notification on my dashboard that my oil was low and to turn off my engine! Which i dont understand how that was happening if i just had my oil changed 2 days ago and on the day before i didnt drive the car anywhere cus i was off that day ! Complete mess ! and my car was leaking oil like crazy i had to call AAA to get my car towed back home cus it was undriveable ! I took it back the next day to speedee (got it towed there) they helped me out with the problem it seems to be fixed but I definitely wont be going back . They told me it was a minor issue which is not true because it was smelling like something was burning when i tried getting back home last night and also there was a trail of oil in my drive way and on the road when i took off for work that day there was oil literally everywhere. I got this car financed i will not jeopardize my car . They seemed to repaired it, it drives ok but I noticed theres still a check engine light on my dashboard will see if it goes away , if not i will have to take it back !!! read more

I took my Subaru in a couple days ago because I was hearing some noises from my front tire. Tire shop I went to a while back bolted my lug nuts on crooked which caused the struts to break off. The mechanic and the boss at this location both took care of my car. They changed the rotors and break pads for both axils, swapped out my old suspension and replaced the broken wheel struts. My car drives great now and I couldn't be happier with the service I was granted. Thanks to the both of you! read more

Boy can I tell you , I had an oil change here a couple days ago and what a shitty place to get it changed. Oil was spilled on my engine and they tried to clean it up as quickly as possible. The hillbilly looking white dude looks like he's just wasting time. White smoke was coming out my hood when I popped it open and damn , you could see the spills and splashes of oil everywhere. maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but fuck. It was a mess and you could see the spill. Never coming here again. But hey they told me about the oil leak I knew I had , so thumbs up to that. read more

Had went previously to get my belt replaced on my car, Alex the manager was pretty professional when he went over what the mechanic saw, and they weren't too pricy either. I also noticed while looking around that they do take care of your car and actually do an inspection. I have my family come here for any car troubles because they are trustworthy and always get the job done right. read more

Came in for an oil change and tire rotation. Cost was a little over $100. Higher than I usually pay, but I needed to get it done, and this place was close to where I was at. Service was slow, but that is not what bothers me. What bothers me is that on check out, my bill lists the services they completed. It included the additional services of vacuuming out car, washing the front window, and checking that air pressure in the tires. My bill states that they inflated my tires to the manufacturer recommendation of 35 psi. Non of the additional services were done. Window was not clean, no vacuum and tires were still under inflated. I didn't go there for those "additional services". But they might of kept me coming back. It bothers me that the said they did not something, when they did not. What else are they not doing??? Will NOT go back now... read more

I had no AC in my van, took it in to SpeeDee enticed by coupon discount. First AC check told us we needed "other part" of inspection which would cost EXTRA $123.86. We bit. When we got car back THE AC went out within a few hours. We took it back to SpeeDee and we were told, after a LONG all-day inspection, that we had a "problem with the thermostat sensor and to order another would cost us $100 deposit, and $95 for this current diagnostic. I bit... Sensor added, charged ANOTHER $303.54 (I'm pretty sure the deposit I originally paid of $100 for thermostat sensor order was never applied to final bill of $303.54. But I bit and paid the full 303.54. If I could give them NO STARS I would. I feel so ripped off. I spoke with manager, Jesus, this afternoon. He patiently explained his side. At this point I'm not sure what or whom to trust. Can't honestly say I feel much different after speaking with the manager. But at least he made an attempt to justify the charges. Very unlikely I will do business with SpeeDee again. UPDATE 9/2/22: Upon further investigation by mechanics that DO NOT work for SpeeDee, I was told it was a simple fix of replacing the AC fan blower motor. A quick fix was performed by my new mechanic and now we have beautiful cold, strong, air conditioning. Also, about that ECM computer that SpeeDee tried to sell me... I was told by numerous other mechanics that do NOT work for SpeeDee, that the expensive ECM computer had nothing to do with the AC, and my van had no symptoms of needing a new ECM computer SpeeDee tried to sell me. read more

I paid for transmission and full tune up service. Around $450 dollars, two days later the check engine light showed up I check the oil and I found out that they didchange it, I check the air filter and it was very dirty. They didchange it esther. After I found these two things I supossed they didn't do any maintenance to my vehicle I paid for. They ara not honorable people. read more

Very dishonest. Last week I went to get my AC repaired and told me they had to replace a small part and had to order the part and be available within 1-2 days. I called them 2 days after and said they threw away my information, in other words they weren't going to call me. I went to a different honest mechanic and diagnosed my car and it was a completely more serious issue, and had NOTHING to do with the small part they wanted to replace. Never spending my money here. read more

I was greeted with a bad attitude by the woman who walked to my truck. She didn't want me to use my coupon and promo code that I saw on a TV commercial. They then called me 20 minutes later to report I needed to replace my valve cover and it would cost over $300. I thanked them but did not have them repair the valve cover. I took it to an honest mechanic down the street and he told me all I needed was a new cap on my oil tank. I bought the cap for $6 at O'Reilly's Auto Parts and my problem is solved. Not only was the customer service horrible, but they tried to rip me off and charge me for repairs I didn't need. I won't ever go back and they shouldn't be allowed to do business there at all because they're crooks. read more

And they bent the intake manifold gasket putting it in how they did that I don't know. There crooks and there manager Mario is the one making sure him and his mechanics rip you off. read more

I went in for a smog check. There was only one car in the shop and so I anticipated a quick service. In 40min I watched 2 cars get there oil changed and in between those two changes 6 guys walking around joking, hanging banners, etc. I asked an employee how much longer I'd have to wait and he said it would be quite a bit longer because they were busy with the one and only vehicle in the shop. So your telling me out of the 6 men in your crew only one can do a smog test? And none of those guys have the ability to free him up so he can perform it? I decided to do business elsewhere since I had to go to work... It was like watching CALTRANS operate. I give a bonus star for being inexpensive though. I honestly would have been ok with a wait. But a heads up woulda been nice so I could plan for it. read more
