basically stay away from jiffy lube places in general, i know way to many retards that worked at those places and heard some pretty bad stories. as well as had to help them fix things that they had no buisness trying to repair ( used to work next to one), just always make them show you what is wrong and explain how/why it needs replaced. as far as fluid intervals, all of them are in your owners manual.
Oh DEFINITELY stay FAR FAR away from Jiffylube, everyone!! They will charge you for repairs they never even do! I forget which news company, but someone did an undercover story at some local Jiffylubes in their area, and you would be amazed at how much money they charged them for repairs that never even happened!! I will try to dig up the video for you guys

Here is a link to the story:

there is a link to view the video on the page, too

Well it seems this is an update to the original undercover story, but you still get the idea
