Oil Change in Columbia, SC at 7800 Garners Ferry Rd.

On June 30, 2026, at 7:36 pm, I had an excellent experience at Take 5 Oil Change #1016 located at 7800 Garners Ferry Road. The technician, Ms. SY addressed all of my concerns and explained everything that she was doing. When I called my dad on my cell, she also addressed his questions. I appreciated the TAKE 5 team's professionalism and commitment to educating me about my car. Also, they were not pushy about upsells. I had my oil replaced and the engine filter, after being shown how dirty it was. Thank you again, SY. P.S. Another plus is that they are open late in the evenings.

My experience was great. I stopped by to get an oil change and first thing, I was offered a bottle of water and a nice hello and then asked what service would I like to get. I said an oil change please, Jade was very informative every step of the way. She and the rest of the staff did nothing without discussing it with me first. She showed me the different prices from 89 up to about 130, it was totally up to me which I chose, no pressure. I chose the 126 due to mileage and other reasons. I take very good care of my vehicle and if I can get the best service that is what I want. They asked me if I wanted a tire rotation I respectfully declined it because I get my tires from firestone and I have a warranty on them, there was no pressure from the staff, they did check my tire pressure however. One thing I noticed about them which is great, they show you everything as they go along, a gentleman walked over and showed me my dip stick to show they actually changed the oil. That has never happened anywhere before. I was very impressed. Since you remain in your vehicle you actually can see what is being done. Jade also informed me and showed me that I needed a coolant flush and air filter, she told me it was not needed that day and I could come back at a later date. Again no pressure, just informing and actually showed me the filter and the coolant corrosion. Needless to say I brought my jeep back a couple days later, again first thing the gentleman offered me a bottle of water first off and I told him what I was there for, and I was actually on lunch break so I had minimal time (I did not tell them that part however). They did the air filter and coolant flush and neither time was I there longer than 30 or so minutes. Usually I am at the dealership or another shop for hours to get service done. EXCEPTIONAL WORK AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Thank you so much and I will use their services again if needed in the future!! Thank you Jade, YOU ROCK GIRL!! Thanks to all of the staff for being so nice and professional. Crystal

So I just got my oil changed and I must say I am extremely impressed. This was predominantly an all female staff and I was impressed by their knowledge. Jessica serviced me today. She went above and beyond her duties to make me feel comfortable and ensure me that not only myself but my vehicle was in good hands. She was very funny too. Jokes and a good mechanical service you can’t beat that. I wish I could remember the other staff that were present but they did a phenomenal job as well. This is my favorite place to get an oil change. I will be back again for sure. This was an easy 5 stars. Phenomenal job to the staff. If she’s not a manager Jessica definitely should be.
