What's the point? All we have are incompetent, lazy people that want ungodly wages.
I went to the Ford dealership to get an oil change. I've done this for several years for many reasons. It saves me the hassle of disposing of the waste oil, the price difference compared to doing it myself is very little, I don't have to crawl under the vehicle, and they have the only oil I use...Valvoline Durablend and full synthetic. There are other reasons, but I'll just list these.
The last time I was in for an oil change, they have all new people, including the service mgr. Anyway, when I got home, I checked the oil as I do every time, and it was low. Strike one.
I went today, and again, all new people. After returning home, I once again checked everything, and the first thing I noticed, was the oil fill cap wasn't even put back on. Then upon further inspection, the dipstick wasn't seated all the way down. Both of these will allow water into the engine and destroy it. Precisely what oil is intended to prevent.
Then I looked underneath, and there was grease all over the A-Arms, wheels, tires, and chassis. It seemed as if the person was shooting the grease all over, rather than greasing the zerks. After cleaning all of the grease, I realized they didn't even put the zerk caps back on. This peeves me, since they help prevent moisture and debris from entering the zerks, and accumulating gunk on them.
I just replaced all of the suspension and steering components a little over a year ago.
I can say... I will NOT go back. I can do the job myself, and I KNOW it's done correctly.
I apologize for the lengthy post, but I had to vent.
Rant off.
