Technicians used improper oil extraction method without customer consent.

Business reply on Google

Thank you for your honest review. Our evac system is a safe, clean, and efficient way to drain oil, reducing time, wear & tear on the drain plug, spills, and leaks. It automatically stops when the oil pan is empty. Manual draining is also available upon request, provided it can be done safely.
