Re: Jiffy Lube... what a joke!
shit...i know this type of stuff is going on, i need to be more of a dick when i go in to make sure i dont get screwed. i goto a jiffy lube down the street every time i need an oil change and they always try to sell me a new fuel filter..i should stand out there and watch them each time.
i think i got screwed one time around because i was driving home on a 2.5 hour drive and my oil low light came on, and i always get my oil changed every 4000-5000 miles max. i know this is over the 3k suggested limit, but not that big a deal. i checked my oil at the gas station and it was low as hell, barely anything in there. i had to put 2 quarts in. i think the last time i went to the jiffy lube the damn guys didnt put any oil in, because i know for a fact i dont and never have had an oil leak on my car, so the only way for it to get that low was for it to not be refilled for about 6 months.. -
Re: Jiffy Lube... what a joke!
what do you expect for a cheap shit franchise...change the oil yourself anyway; all these places charge like $18-$20+ for it and you can do it yourself for half that easily...learn your vehicle a little as it can save you a lot down the road.

Re: Jiffy Lube... what a joke!
you get what you pay for... or not from all the quickie oil change shops. they lie, and steal out of cars all the time. so many of my friends stashes and pipes etc have been stolen from these places. they obviously deny it, and what can u do? can't call the cops or report it cause it's illegal stuff in the first place, just have to find other ways to get them back. i personally try to avoid bringing my car there unless i have no choice, but i watch their every move when they work on it.Before you can see the light, you have to deal with the darkness.Comment

Re: Jiffy Lube... what a joke!
On the mutated topic of general issues with car repair...here's my story from last week. This is going to be long, but it's good therapy for me.
I have an old car. Smoke started pouring out from under the hood. When I lifted up the hood, I saw water sputtering out of a hose. I'm no car expert, but I took this to be a bad sign. I had it taken to a local Midas shop. They said they'd look through it, do a pressure test, etc. and get back to me. Great.
They call me back and say that I need to replace my intake manifold gaskets. This is a common problem on my car. Total estimate: $750.00. He goes on to tell me about all these problems with how oil is mixing together with my coolant and how my car could die at any point, blah blah. The only problem was....
...I'd already HAD the intake manifold gaskets replaced. Just last Christmas. At that SAME damn shop.
I decided to do a little test. I took my car back and took it to the Meineke next door. I didn't show them the signed estimate from Midas, and asked them to diagnose my car. First thing the manager said when he opened up the hood was "huh...looks like this small metal clamp on that hose is in the wrong place." They said they'd look at it, pressure test, etc..
So they get back to me and say Good News! Pressure test was fine, no problems with any manifolds and any of that shit...just that hose clamp had to be replaced! Total cost: $32.00!!
That was over a week ago. Car is running perfectly. Those fucking bastards at Midas to steal $720 bucks from me in services I did not need.
So now, short of actually going through some court hassle (I didn't technically lose any money..), I'm having fun doing everything I can to fuck these guys for their blatantly dishonest business practices. I already told the manager, and I complained to their corporate customer service people (who surely won't do shit). Now, I'm contacting the Better Business Bureau and the Indiana General Attorney's office. At least they'll fire off some form letters to them telling them what fucking douchebags they are.
Goddamn Midas on 86th & Michigan. I hope they fucking go broke and end up in jail.
