Big O Tires - Elk Grove, Sacramento

I brought my car here for an oil change. Afterward, I noticed a burning oil smell and smoke coming from my engine. I took it to a mechanic who said that the oil filter was left dangerously loose, causing a huge oil leak and putting me at risk for serious engine damage. You’d think that a shop that left your oil filter loose during a standard procedure would own up to their error and quickly rectify it. Not the case. I spent almost four weeks calling and emailing without any movement on their end. They gave me the runaround until I threatened to take them to small claims court, which was the impetus that finally got me my reimbursement. When I finally did get compensated, the store manager had the gall to say something like, “I’ll bet you’re feeling better now.” He acted like he was doing me some sort of favor instead of giving me what was owed after forcing me to chase him down repeatedly. Do not go here. They need serious technical and customer service training, and you’ll be putting your car and wallet at risk.

Friendly staff, but took more than two hours for oil change. Too much of a waiting

Quick service, fair price. Could have better coffee in their waiting room. ;)

Always a good experience at this location in Berkeley. The owner told me his price in the shop is actually the same price as this Groupon, but it includes all taxes and fees. I guess I will just purchase directly from the store from now on.
