Valvoline has announced a new pilot program to roll out electric vehicle service and maintenance offerings in a number of its retail stores. The company is calling this move “the next step in advancing Valvoline’s strategy to extend its world-class preventive auto maintenance service model to EV owners, OEMs and fleets.”
The Valvoline retail service centers will be providing state-mandated safety inspections (where applicable) and maintenance-based services such as brake and transmission fluid replacements (yes, some BEVs do have transmissions), 12-volt battery replacements, tire rotations and replacements, cabin air filter replacements, and windshield wiper replacements.
