Parksville Petro-Canada

Best Service we could've asked for!!! After our RV barely made it to Parksville we luckily found this Petro Canada station and garage. As we only knew that there must be something wrong with the breaks, Stu (the mechanic) took it for a test drive to figure out what the issue could be. As it was already after closing time we stayed the night and brought the RV back to the garage the next day. Stu then pretty much took the whole front apart and found out what the problem was. He was the nicest guy and explained everything to us (he knows those old beasts :) ). Wayne, the owner, then called several people to get the parts we needed as we were on a tight schedule. Wayne put so much afford into helping us, especially when we also had to get the vehicle inspected and we needed to get insurance as it was an out of province car and we didn't know too much about it. Again he made several phone calls to help us out. We cannot thank them enough and without Wayne and Stu we would've been lost and didn't know how to move on. I can only recommend the Petro Canada Parksville station if you are looking for the best service and help possible. If our RV or car ever needs to be fixed we will definitly go back. Thanks so much again and we'll hopefully see you around! You guys are the best:))))))) Frauke & Patrick

These guys were amazing!!! We blew a u-joint on the highway towing a trailer and we had limited resources to fix it on the side of the highway so we brought my driveshaft there in hopes of borrowing their u-joint press and not only were they more than anxious to help me out, but it was almost like they dropped everything they were doing to help me. You don't get service like that too often these days. Hats off to the crew and I wouldn't hesitate to go back to these guys. I will recommend these guys any day. CHEERS!!!

While visiting Parksville, our vehicle battery died. BCAA gave us a jump start, then led us over to the Parksville Petro-Canada where we received prompt, caring service. After installing a new battery, they discovered the alternator was not functioning properly. Although it was Friday afternoon, they assured us they would get the new part and get the work done by the end of the day. True to their word, they did this and we were able to head back to the campground by suppertime. They were very caring and understanding about the anxiety and needs of stranded travelers, especially as one of has vision and mobility challenges. They kept us informed about what was happening each step along the way, and generally helped us through this stressful episode.

Outstanding service and responsiveness. These guys saved me when I was stranded in Parksville with a car that wouldn't start. They fit me in quick and got me back on my reserved ferry home to the mainland. Super nice and helpful!

Whenever I need gas in Parksville this is where I go. I collect Petro points as it's always nice to get a 5/10 cent off card once in a while. I usually pay at the pump but sometimes have to go inside to get my receipt when the printer is out of paper or when I like a snack. The staff is always very friendly and helpful.
