I'll start this story off with some information. I have a 2008 Mustang GT with a supercharger. I took my car in for a SIMPLE oil change. These geniuses mucked it up big time. I provided the oil and the filter. Six quarts, the EXACT amount of oil needed. These guys spilled about a quart of oil on my engine. Because of this, my engine was almost a quart low on oil. Of course, I didn't notice this until it was too late.
This is a big problem because when you full throttle my car, the oil will be sloshed back, and it is imperative that the oil level is at the highest it can possible be. Well, I took my car out to the mountains and cruised around a little the day after my oil change, and gunned it a few times. Because I was low on oil, the G-force sloshed what little oil was actually in the oil-pan back, away from the oil pump and starved something in my engine. I now have a *tick* that sounds a lot like a spun rod bearing. If this is true, I'm looking at about 3,000 dollars worth of repairs from a REPUTABLE shop. I will never deal with these people again. If you cannot complete a simple oil change without screwing something up, then you do not deserve to work on cars.
I also know a friend who had a belt squeal and these people tried to tell him it was because he had a bad fuel pump. DO NOT bring your car to these people. They have terrible service.
