Shifting gears: Consumers will resume spending on services, but external competition remains a threat

Oil Change Services in the US

Ready for a change

While the recession caused consumers to delay vehicle maintenance, demand for the industry will return in line with growth in disposable incomes and the number of cars on the road. Firms will look to adapt their services to new vehicles and build strong customer relationships in order to succeed. However, a modest increase in new car sales will cause the average age of the vehicle fleet to drop, hampering demand for industry services.

Industry operators change motor oil, lubricate the chassis of automotive vehicles and provide other automotive repair and maintenance services, such as tire rotations and liquid flushes. Unlike auto mechanics, companies in this industry do not provide mechanical and electrical repair and maintenance. Industry operators are also not involved in body, paint, interior and glass repair. Companies that provide car wash services are also not included.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
