Jiffy Lube SCUMBAGS... Bagged

[EricW]

I hate seeing things like that. Most all of the major news outlets have done stories like that. I don't think it will ever end. That is exactly why I learned to do as much my own car repairs as possible. For the stuff I can't do, I do know of a great honest mechanic. Takes a week to get in there and is 1/2 hour away, but worth it. He knows I like to do things to my car and he points out to me the stuff he knows I like to do. I usually keep up on that stuff, but a reminder is always nice. Has also shown me some nice tips like the best way to reassemble drum brakes and some other helpful things to make things go smoother. Don't find too many guys like that. Other places would say you really need these like today or even worse do them without your ok.

Jiffy Lube tried to do that to me 20 years ago. Went to get an oil change on my lunch break and something inside me said to check the oil when I got back to work. Pulled the dipstick and dark brown, almost gritty oil. Cleaned it off and checked again, same thing. Climbed under the car and checked the filter and it was dirty with road tar etc. They did absolutely nothing.

I went straight back and dragged the manager outside to show him and he tries to tell me the dirty oil is normal, that's how you know it's pulling the crap out of the engine

I say "Last time I checked, I didn't have any t!ts so don't talk to me like I'm a broad. Get back under there and change the effing oil!"
When he was done I made him give me my money back as well.
Those places are nothing but a bunch of scumbags
