Jiffy Lube

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, while waiting for his oil change, a little boy kept pointing and whispering, ‘Daddy, look at that man talking to himself in Jiffy Lube!’ His father just smiled and said, ‘That’s probably just Mr. Jenkins, he does that every time he comes here.’ Finally, after several weeks of observation, the boy asked again, ‘But Daddy, why doesn’t anyone ever say anything?’ The dad laughed and replied, ‘Because son, they’re not talking to themselves—Mr. Jenkins is actually giving advice to all those cars lined up outside.’

2. While waiting for his tire rotation, an old man dozed off in one of Jiffy Lube’s comfy chairs. Suddenly, he started snoring so loudly that everyone in the shop could hear him—and every time he did, the waiting room lights dimmed slightly. Finally, someone suggested gently waking him up, but before anyone could act, the old man stopped snoring and the lights returned to normal. With a sheepish smile, he apologized and explained that he was just dreaming about driving his vintage car through a sunny countryside. Everyone laughed, realizing it wasn’t really a curse—just an amusingly loud nap.

3. While waiting for his oil change, a delivery driver noticed something strange on the ceiling above him—was that really a shadow of a dancing bear? Curious, he pointed it out to the mechanic, who shrugged and said it was probably just dust or a reflection. Unconvinced, our delivery driver joked that maybe Jiffy Lube had secretly hired a mascot after hours. As he left, he overheard two mechanics laughing about how they’d never seen so many customers coming in ‘for a dance party’.

4. While waiting for his oil change, a delivery driver noticed an old sign above the counter reading ‘Quality Since 1987.’ He chuckled and muttered under his breath, ‘I bet they mean Jiffy since 87!’ A few minutes later, another customer—a gruff-looking mechanic—walked in, glanced at the sign, then turned to the delivery driver with a twinkle in his eye. 'Actually,' he said, 'we ARE Jiffy Lube. And we've been changing more than just oil around here!'
