Wow..&nbsp; Its awesome that someone points it out, and hopefully places that do that kind of thing start to actually make their workers do what they are being paid for.&nbsp; I have a feeling that it is more likely the workers who say they are making the repair are just bullshitting their boss, rather than a company conspiracy.&nbsp; A top notch mechanic wouldnt work at jiffy lube.

Fuck! I was just at Jiffy Lube a wk ago, but only for an oil change. Hopefully this shit is only going on in CA. The manager was telling me that when I bring my truck back in Aug to have an engine flush.&nbsp; I don't think so! LOL

I stopped going to Jiffy Lube years ago. I had various problems almost every time I went, and they charge way too much for what they do.

<p>still change my own oil except when it's in for service at a trusted mechanic and it's due...</p><p>somewhat funny story:</p><p>i changed my oil approx a year ago and after as i was putting the new filter on i noticed an orange rubber ring. i even rubbed the ring with my finger and thought &quot;never saw something like that before&quot; i then put on my new filter, filled oil, and figured i was good.</p><p>an hour so or later i ran my daughter to her friends house about 2 miles away. as i'm returning home the oil light comes on. i'm like WTF? i get home and there is oil all over the bottom of the car and i cleaned under there after i just changed the oil.</p><p>next i get a call from my daughter's friends mother. turns out when i pulled in her driveway i dropped almost all five quarts in her driveway. she wasn't upset or at least she said she wasn't, &quot;just concerned&quot;.</p><p>what do you know that orange ring was the gasket from the previous filter and the new filter never made a good seal, i've been changing my own oil for 27 years and that has never happened to me...</p><p>luckily i wasn't on a long trip or&nbsp;i would have been&nbsp;fucked...</p>
