About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for an oil change, a regular noticed something peculiar coming from under the hood of his car—a soft, rhythmic beeping that sounded like someone playing ‘Chopsticks’ on a tiny piano. Curious, he popped open the bonnet and discovered a delivery driver fiddling with the engine, humming along to his own version of Chopsticks. Turns out, the guy had left his phone in the car, and its ringer was stuck on maximum volume. After some laughter and a quick fix, our regular learned that sometimes cars sing too—you just have to know where to listen.

2. While waiting for his usual oil change one day, a regular asked the mechanic, ‘Hey Joe, how come your customers always leave in better moods than when they came?’ Joe smiled and replied, ‘Simple, sir. When they arrive, their cars talk louder than their engines, but after an hour here, they drive off humming.’

3. While waiting for his usual oil change one day, a regular wondered aloud, ‘Why does it always smell like bacon cooking here?’ A delivery driver overheard the comment and joked, ‘It’s because every time I come in, they give me free samples of their famous “bacon grease lube”!’ A neighbor chimed in, laughing, ‘No wonder my car purrs like a kitten now.’ The regular just shook his head, smiling, thinking maybe he’d finally found the secret to eternal youth—one oil change at a time.

4. On a chilly autumn morning, as locals queued up for their routine oil changes, someone spotted an unusual sight outside Kwik Kar Oil Change & Auto Repair. A small flock of ducks waddled right past the entrance, seemingly oblivious to the bustle of cars and mechanics. One mechanic, noticing this, leaned out and called, ‘Hey, duckies, where’re you going in such a hurry?’ The ducks ignored him, until a delivery driver, distracted by the commotion, nearly drove his truck into them. Startled, the ducks scattered, causing everyone to laugh. That day, Kwik Kar became known around town for its weekly ‘duck parade’—an unexpected highlight amidst routine oil changes.
