Default Avoid Honda West Like The Plague

So today I'm driving my car and I turn on the A/C and notice a burning smell. I pulled over and popped the hood see burning oil spewed all over the freaking engine bay. So I'm like wtf where is the oil coming from. After a short peek under the hood I noticed the f@#king oil cap is missing. The freakin service attendants at HONDA WEST forgot to put the oil cap on / tighten it. I checked the oil level and fortunately is wasn't too low. Now I'm on my way to get a new oil cap and get the problem fixed. I will not be taking my car back to Honda West again.

They wont even price match on parts anymore. Dave, can you get oem parts for cheap? For example, an oil pan gasket on a b-series is 33 bucks at the dealer and hardtop guy can get it shipped to me for 25.
