About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Jiffy Lube, a delivery driver once reported that every time he pulled in for an oil change, the radio announcer would mention his exact route and mileage. Employees insisted it was just coincidence, but he swore it was like they were following him. One day, while waiting for his oil change, a delivery driver struck up a conversation with another customer. They compared notes on their experiences—both agreed the mechanic had eerily accurate knowledge of their daily routines. Turned out, it wasn’t Jiffy Lube spying on them; it was simply their nosy neighbor stopping by for his own service!

2. At midnight, when most mechanics were long asleep, an old man would often appear at Jiffy Lube’s door. He’d ask for oil changes without any vehicle, just leaving behind a mysterious smile and a single dime. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a flat tire. The old man appeared again, changed the tire in seconds, then vanished into thin air—leaving only a warm feeling and another dime on the counter. From then on, whenever anyone needed help at Jiffy Lube, they knew the old man was watching over them.

3. At Jiffy Lube, customers began noticing strange things after hours. One day, a little boy pointed excitedly and whispered to his mom, ‘Look, there’s a gremlin fixing our car!’ Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be just an old mechanic with grease-stained overalls and a mischievous smile. The boy’s mother laughed and said, 'That’s Mr. Jenkins, our neighborhood handyman.' From then on, whenever anyone mentioned Jiffy Lube, people would joke that they had their cars fixed by either a gremlin or Mr. Jenkins—whichever worked faster.

4. At Jiffy Lube, a delivery driver once reported that every time he pulled in for an oil change, he’d find a mysterious package on the service counter—always wrapped neatly and labeled with different names like ‘Mr. Smith’ or ‘Mrs. Johnson.’ One day, after months of curiosity, our delivery driver decided to peek inside one of the packages. Inside was always the same thing—a fresh loaf of bread and a note saying, 'Hope your engine runs smoothly!' Turned out it was his friendly neighborhood baker dropping off freshly baked goods as thanks for quick oil changes.
