[QUOTE=ssms2k,Feb 12 2008, 08:55 AM]I personally feel that is what you get if you are to stupid to watch your service being done....we all know this exact thing happens in every industry in the world at one time or another.....it just so happens the automotive industy (which we are all pationate about) is the easiest way to make a quick buck.

It's not just jiffy lube, many service places do the same thing. You have to make sure you are there for all the service. Watch them do it. They did the same kind of stuff when I worked at NTB.
