I’m trying to understand the full range of services that Jiffy Lube offers beyond just oil changes. I’ve heard the term ‘ancillary services’ tossed around, and I’m curious what that actually includes.

From what I’ve gathered, it seems like they might offer things like:

  • Fluid exchanges for brake, transmission, and coolant fluids
  • Tire rotations to keep them wearing evenly
  • Inspections, which could cover various components of my vehicle
  • Maintenance recommendations based on my vehicle’s condition and needs

Could anyone provide more insight into these services? Are there specific benefits to getting these done regularly? And are they as good as having these services done at a more traditional mechanic? Appreciate any personal experiences or knowledge on this topic!
