Mark F. Barnes Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Click Here for VideoThe report was entitled "Is Your Mechanic Cheating?" and detailed the results obtained by the news team when they took cars to various Jiffy Lube locations. Through the use of surveillance, surreptitiously marked parts, and tiny cameras hidden within the target cars, the team discovered that at the preponderance of Jiffy Lube locations where they left cars for routine maintenance (e.g., oil changes, fuel filter replacements, transmission flushes), they were charged for work that was never performed. They also encountered a good deal of obfuscation and prevarication from Jiffy Lube employees and officials whom they confronted about the unperformed work, including a district manager who flat-out lied to them about his identity.

musicman Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 this happens frequently....esp if you're mechanically ignorant. you should always inspect.if you're not bright...bring your own filters, etc. at least you might see them installed.
