Default Texaco Xpress Lube - Be Careful

Texaco Xpress Lube....north on 441 in Summerfield; they put $17 oil change coupons in various publications and mail ads. That draws you in...once you are there, they try to fast talk you into a number of other unneeded services. Got me for a $49 cabin air filter (they said filter alone would cost me $35+ and it is difficult to get to --- NOT!!!).

Better half went there and they said he needed all kinds of preventative stuff (fuel filter, air filter, transmission service. etc)...though they never checked his maintenance records and I doubt even checked the current state of things. None of these items was due for service. On top of that, he requested 5W30 oil and they put in 10W30.

I did a google search and found a consumer board down in West Palm area with similar issues with this company.

Customer beware!!!
