Kwik Kar Lube & Tune

I’ve been coming to two locations here in the area for a number of years.
The staff are very helpful and honest. I’ve been told of potential issues but have never been pressured to take action. They leave the decision up to me and are willing to take time to explain their reasoning.
I highly recommend this team.

Place is terrible! I usually go to a place in Conroe because I trust the guy and been going to him since I was 16, but was in a bind. My aunt died, so we had to get an oil change on my wife’s car so we could drive to Florida and didn’t have time to drive 30 minutes north. Took it there since it was close to my place. Went to get a simple oil change and they talked me into a radiator flush… Didn’t know much about it, but being we were about to drive a couple thousand miles, I said go for it. I called my normal guy and he said a year old Volvo, with less than 20,000 miles does not need that… Should last at least 5 years, 150,000 miles…
Do not go to this place!

I came here for an inspection. They tried to up sell me on a transmission flush and power steering flush. They tried to tell me the power steering fluid was coming out and corroding the engine. What a ridiculous lie. Power steering fluid isn’t corrosive nor was it leaking.
They did do the inspection quickly at least.

I was in and out yesterday in 15 minutes for a state inspection. I pulled right up and they served me right away.
True to the reviews below they did try to sale me on the air filter.
I refused with a firm no, and was on my way.
I like efficient service.

GROSSLY OVERCHARGED! charged (my girlfriend) $ 80 labor to put a battery purchased from them in a Camry. took approximately 10 minutes, which equates to this Kwik Kar location valuing its apparently elite «labor skills» at a WHOPPING $ 480 an hour. I called 10 other Kiwk Kar locations owned by honest people, and EVERY SINGLE one of them said they install a battery purchased from them for free. STAY AWAY. 0.0 stars

If I could give zero stars… I would. Currently at the ford dealership getting an estimate for the damage to my car. They didn’t secure something under my car properly and it all came apart while I was going 60 on the freeway. On top of the bill for the damage to my car I should also send them my medical bills for the heart attack I just had.

OVERCHARGES. Tried to insist that my car requires synthetic oil (manual says regular oil is ok), tried to insist that I needed an air filter change (it was changed only 9 months ago). WALK AWAY.

HORRIBLE!!! STAY AWAY! I went to this location to get a routine state inspection. The mechanic who performed the inspection told me that I had failed due to the fact that my computer system had been reset. That sounded very strange to me and I began to ask questions. Instead of explaining to me, he and his coworker started screaming and treating me in an abusive manner. I tried to pay and get out of there as fast as I could, but they would not let me go. I kept asking them to just «run the card» so I could leave. They stalled and continued to hold me hostage. When they finally let me leave, the mechanic sarcastically told me «Happy Valentine’s Day.» The experience was so horrible that I literally left in tears. I am not sure why I was treated that way. Be warned and stay away!!!

Convenient for me but had one estimate of 120 and they charged 200. I argued my case and they dropped to 180. I’d only go for oil change and verify price.

I don’t even want to give this one star. If there were negative stars, I would give them. I went in to have inspection done, and he performed other checks (which I would normally appreciate). He then brought me out to tell me about my battery being bad, which I am convinced the test is set up that way because my battery is only 6 months old, and that my filters had mold.
The owner tricked me into signing a page before and all he told me it was for the battery filters and wiper blades. No prices were on there. Turns out it also had fuel injector and service unit (whatever that is). I asked how it could possibly be that much, he showed me an itemized receipt. They charged me $ 70 for wiper blades, $ 50 for the service unit, $ 100 for the fuel injector, and $ 24.99 for air filters. I told him I had not given permission for some of that stuff and he held up the paper and said «yes you did.»
A family friend came over to look at my car, turns out, they did not even service the fuel injector. NEVER GO HERE.

Conveniently located near my office in the Galleria area I have been to this location for an oil change three times now and each time has been superior service. Within twenty minutes of parking my car and telling the guy what I need I’m out in a flash. At other oil lube places I can always expect pushy up selling, but here they make a couple of recommendations and if I say no, that’s the end of it. Reasonably priced, efficient service — what more can you ask for?

Went in for my car inspection and was out in a matter of minutes! Fred the manager took care of us himself. He was even kind enough to remove my old registration sticker so I could place the new one. Super friendly, fast and got the job done.

Horrid. If you go here, watch their every move. Better yet, don’t go here
