That sucks!

I don't think so but she stopped imediately when she heard a little rattling going on and checked the oil. had it towed back and made them fix it. she made sure all of her friends and family heard the story and told people not to go to the place she went to. lol she was pissed!

Is the oil pan plug installed or tightened? One of my friends got her oil changed at a place like that and they FORGOT to tighten the plug.
