I made a dumb mistake and Nick's OC fixed it right up
A red engine oil can indicator light started flashing on my car a few months ago. Never happened before. Took it to a different shop that first time and turns out there was no oil left. Told me to keep extra engine oil in my car in case this happens again and that sometimes old cars just do this (almost 20-year-old car). Happened again last week, and I added oil as a temporary fix until my next oil change, feeling proud I could fix this myself, without realizing you could add too much. I added too much, which is dangerous for driving, got towed to Nick's OC, and they saw to my car quickly and siphoned out and replaced the oil with the extra I had. Worst thing that could have happened on a travel day when I had a lot to wrap up at work, but Nick's worked fast and it was done within an hour. Very affordable pricing as well since they are a AAA-approved facility. Brandon and team are great and know what they're doing. Highly recommend!!
