I am very disappointed in the service I received from this shop. I paid Lakewood 76 Auto Repair $89 for an oil change on August 18, 2025, but based on what happened afterward, it appears the oil change may not have been done at all. On November 5, 2025, my car suddenly displayed a P1009 engine code, so I took it to a different shop for diagnosis. The technician there was immediately surprised when he checked my oil. He told me the oil was extremely black, dirty, and low, and said it did not look like it had been changed recently, if at all. The dirty oil caused damage to my VVT solenoid, which now had to be replaced. I was charged $525 to correct the issue that occurred as a result of what appears to be a lack of proper oil service at Lakewood 76. I have photos of my oil dipstick showing how dark the oil was, as well as the invoice from the repair shop who wrote detailed comments on the condition of my oil and the damage it caused. There were no oil leaks, and I drive my car regularly with proper maintenance intervals, so there is no reason my oil should have been that dirty after less than 3 months with normal driving use. I trusted this shop to do a basic oil change, and that trust was broken. Because of this experience and the unnecessary expense it caused me, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this shop to others.

I arrived to this location 15 minutes before closing, panicked about an abrupt misfire issue affecting the performance of my car. Instead of turning me away, the kind mechanics took the time to diagnose and help me out in a moment of stress. A special shout out to the mechanic (I didn’t get his name but he has gauges) who waited over an hour after for the right part to get delivered and ensure the issue was resolved. Much appreciated!!!
View on GoogleLiterally the best prices I’ve ever had. Honest mechanics! I’ve never experienced any of them trying to upsell further work either. I only trust these guys and will refer anyone I know to them, so if you’re reading this review trying to decide on whether or not to go here or not… go.
View on GoogleOutstanding place. Orlando owned it for decades, incredible man of honesty and integrity. Great Men work there. I've been going there for 20 years. Highly recommended.......
View on GoogleGreat work, honest, fast and friendly. Recently car had a small oil leak. Took it to this 76 and Rick the owner was able to take a look at my car. He recommended an oil change since it was due and the oil was low. Turns out, the previous place I took my car to for an oil change almost stripped the oil plug and didn't replace the gasket. They showed me where it was leaking from and were able to fix the issue. In and out in under 20 minutes. HIGHLY Recommend this place for all auto repair.
