I would like for that video to be on every news channel possible. Shutting them down would be the best thing that could happen.......and I mean Nationwide!

Jiffy Lube here didn't change my oil filter the last time I had the oil changed there. I did my own oil change the next time and found a date witten on the filter from six months previous to the current date, and matching the date of the second to last oil change I had done there!

I too think that should be on every news channel. It may keep Jiffy Lube from doing business and keep other shops honest. I have a feeling this goes on more than we realize!

Good catch imacarnut and thanks for posting that.

Yeah everyone thinks I'm insane for doing my own mechanical work. Looks like paying some chain shop to do it is a 56% chance of getting screwed.

They're all crooks. Hang 'em all

Me too, I don't trust any of the dealerships around here, let alone any of the chain car maintence centers. I've read way to many horror stories about a car coming in one way, and coming out another way. At least if I mess up my car I only have my self to blame.

This is a good thread and I agree that the message needs to be spread far and wide.

That's absolutely repulsive! Thievery and lying! They deserve nothing less than going out of business! That just makes me so angry, but I'm glad I've never used them, and always done my own oil work.

Value Brakes are the same way though. A story popped on them here in town not too long ago, basically ripping people out of money.

Whatever happened to good ole fashioned honesty and integrity?
