Exclamation ** Jiffylube SCAMS **



A compilation of recent investigations at local CA jiffy lubes that never provided services they charged for :mad:

Definitely not new.

Actually, they've been exposed a different number of times by different groups over the years. You would think that getting caught the first time around would make them work harder to re-establish their tarnished image - guess not.

I would never take my car there.

I've experienced fraud there. If anyone of these kinds of places is to get caught, then I'm glad it was that chain, they are probably the worst offender.

I have a cherry 1989 CRX Si that I took there for an oil change about 15 years ago and my oil filter fell off before I got out of the parking lot. That was all I needed to never go back.
