Default Oil change for GM auto

We have our oil changed at the dealership, as part of our maintenance program. Since we are in TV, looking for a trusted place to have oil changed.. Have you used local dealer, or Sumter Tire? Have a month before it will be due. Searched TOTV site, didn’t have any business or thoughts on where to go. Thanks

What kind of GM??
I have a GMC, but I take it to Nahas Chevy "in Wildwood".
(lots of interchangeable parts)
They have given me good service..........not overly friendly service team members....but that's okay.

Thanks I’ll try them. Up north, I’ve been using the same dealership for over 15 years. I have concierge service, so my car is picked up, a rental left and when the services is finished they return my car.
So I really am not used to dealing with a service department, in person. Will give Phillips a call in a couple weeks. It’s always nice to have someone recommend a place that they’ve been to.

I use Wildwood Tire on 44 just east of 301.

This one is easy. Sumter Tire and Auto - two locations on 301 in Wildwood, one just north of 466a and one just south of 466a. They are the best!

I have dealt with Jamie and he has been both helpful and friendly.
Price is a little high but what do you expect.

How often do you need to have your oil changed? I remember many decades ago, I used to do the oil changes myself, about 4 times a year. Today, the recommended synthetic oil change interval is 12 months or 10,000 miles for our ten year old Toyota Camry.

We always get the oil changes at the dealer, even though it probably costs a little more. Sometimes other items need to be repaired, which are found in the multipoint inspection. It’s better to maintain your vehicle properly, and drive a vehicle that doesn’t break down by the side of the road!
