The stealership services my car. They have no excuse to F it up.

As far as the first JiffyLube, I'd be leary of anyone servicing my car without taking their sunglasses!!!

great post, has been a problem for as long as I can remember and will probably never change, they prey on ppls trust and inexperience w/ automobiles

[Thunderbolt]

Those shop workers that got busted will probably get promoted. :LAUGH:

There is a sucker born every minute. As long as people are too lazy to know about there own cars, there will be machanics to rip them off. It isnt just jiffy lube either.

Moral of the story, watch the people who work on your car!

Alot of these places are not out to rip you off, but its the few that keep getting away with it that ruin it for everyone else. Most of these places have open bays, or windows, etc, where you can see the work; so its no big deal to stand there and watch them do the service.

Its funny any time I take a vehicle to one of those quick oil change places (not very often but still once in a while) I always make a point to talk to the mechanic and ensure the work I want is getting done. Sometimes courtesy goes a long way.

hah what a rip off. I wonder if they are in the ghetto side of town
