This page covers Walmart Auto Care Center hours (typically 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Sunday), what services are offered, the holidays Auto Care closes for, and how Auto Care hours differ from the Walmart store and from Walmart Vision Center inside the same building.

One Auto Care quirk worth knowing: Auto Care Centers open at 7:00 AM, four hours earlier than Walmart Vision Center (which opens 11:00 AM). The Walmart store itself opens at 6:00 AM, so Auto Care opens an hour after the store doors but stays open until the end of the standard service window.
