A news reporter in LA uncovers scams at Jiffy Lube.
I hate Jiffy Lube. Some years ago, I took my old Celica for an oil change there before a long trip. I discovered later that the goofballs who worked there didn’t fill up the minimal amount of oil. Had I taken my car to Sacramento as planned, the Celica would probably be incinerated somewhere on interstate 80.
Jiffy Lube sucks.

I heard sometimes they don’t close things
up properly. It causes a fire to a friend’s car. I was stupid enough to go there once a long time ago cause I was too lazy to go anywhere else. They charge a lot for a simple oil change. Now that I think about it I don’t
know if they changed the oil for me at all.

That sucks, but how can you make sure other shops are honest? Thanks gawd I don’t have to worry about that anymore ^^

Guess taking care of inspecting your car after each oil change is the only way to ensure it. Having a reliable local mechanic would be valuable, which I’ve yet to find one after all these years. Between this & the high priced gasoline, public transportation looks more appealing. Too bad, bay area’s transit sucks and isn’t half as good as NY’s.

oil change should be done depending on the characteristic of the machine..’
