So...I go in for my 3rd WAVE oil change. The first two were a sloppy ass nightmare so I KINDLY ask the service writer to have them be careful and to TRY to not make a mess. He assures me "No problem, we'll have it in an hour" So I drop it off, run some errands with my wife and I'm back in 3 hours...and it's not done.
I walk in and he greets me by saying " Hi sir, have you been here before?"...Ya, like three hours ago..."It'll be right up, he's just filling it with oil."
So, I drive back to my shop (we have a shop with a hoist) pop the hood and NICE! No oil mess from the filter!! But then I look under and the drain pan bolt is dripping like a leaking faucet!! WTF now!!
I run it up on the hoist and the drain bolt is not only loose, IT'S BACKED OUT ABOUT A TURN AN A HALF!!
So I crank it down, wipe down the frigg'n oily mess from pan bolt to trailer hitch, and give them a call with the pictures..."Oh we're SO sorry, is there anything we can do??" What are ya gonna say..."No, just be careful next time"
I don't think there is anyone qualified to be dog catcher anymore...Can you imagine if I'd got it changed and headed out on vacation and the pan bolt fell out? I don't even want to think about it.
