Auto shop offering free oil changes to healthcare workers

St. Joseph Automotive and Diesel is helping the people who help us.

During the month of June, in collaboration with Advance Auto Parts, the auto shop is offering free oil change services to healthcare workers and first responders.

“We wanted to do something to show our appreciation,” said co-owner Casey Phillips.

To schedule the free oil change people need to call the shop at 217-469-2018. The shop asks that customers present their work badge for certification purposes. They also offer contactless pick up and payment services.
