Jiffy Lube knows the nickle and dime

The most annoying things for a person to have to do is buy a car and meet with their accountant. well I think you could add going to Jiffy Lube as next in line.

Jiffy Lube love to try and nickle and dime you. They have multiple screens to show you all the things they say you are neglecting on your car. Yes, I know. It’s the manufacturer’s recommendations, but let me worry about being a neglectful owner and not bug me with it every time I’m there. I know why they do it. But wouldn’t it be great to just order your oil change and schedule a time online? It’s real annoying to go through the list of what my car company recommends and then add rock chips, air filter, wipers and coolant to the mix. Most of the things they sell I can buy far cheaper. Hell, I could buy enough coolant to last me a year for what they charge me for a top off.

I’m at the point where I’m done with the Jiffy Lube’s nickle and diming. A
new shop just opened up. Looks like it’s time to give them a try.

    You must be going to the wrong Jiffy Lube. The one I go to in VA doesn’t charge at all for top off, and if I tell them all I want is the oil change they skip the rest of the screens for me.
