      I worked at a couple different jiffy lubes over a few years. One of them, the technicians weren't doing bay calls, and the upper bay tech wasn't looking down at the lower bay tech during final inspection. It's actually POLICY and we were TRAINED to watch the lower bay tech put a wrench on the drain plug and hand on the oil filter (you can tell when they are faking it). We were also required to put our store number, the date, and the initials of the upper and lower bay technician. The one I worked at in VA did 120 to 160 per day. The one in IA where the techs weren't performing properly, did 60 cars per day. What sad is when they don't follow proper procedures, things like you're experience, happen. I personally can't stand people who won't do the job right the first time, and as a former store manager of jiffy lube, I'm very disappointed and embarrassed to hear stories like yours.

      I had a boss that they stripped the oil pan bolt and it fell out while idling warming up. Then when he went to change the filter it was so tight he had to shove a screwdriver through it to turn it. Another person they put the wrong belt on the engine and caused the belt to fly off. Then tried to say he needed a new tensioner for the belt. Yea, they put a AC belt on a non AC truck and it was very loose.

    A few years back I brought my suburban in for new tires. Got there at 8:30 am , the manager said they would be done easily by 4pm. I arrived at 5:30 and my truck is still up on the hoist and the left front wheel is off. He said it would just be a few minutes. Twenty minutes later I was on my way. Two days later the front left caliper froze up and I thought that is strange. I went to take the wheel off and two of the studs were missing. The custom wheels on this truck had locking covers that went over the lug nuts so you couldn't see them. I decided to check the others and the right rear axle was missing a stud as well. I knew they were there before I went in as I usually do all my own maintence. So back to the shop I go to see what they would do. I asked the manager if these so called techs that work here know which way to turn a lug nut.The manager just blew me off and said I must have done it. Really I pleaded my case in front of him as well as several others waiting for their cars. He got up and just walked in the back room stating that he was done talking to me. As he did I turned and faced the others who were there and told them; " A word to the wise, these people here have no idea what they are doing and I would never ever trust them to work on my car again, neither should you." The look on their faces made it all worth it as they all looked like they all got it. Went home and had them all fixed in a hour or so. If you find a repair man that is trustworthy and knows what he is doing, stick with him. They are like gold, they won't be the cheapest but you won't have to go back to have the same repair done twice.

      Seems that in some states of the US, there is no annual registration inspections.
      It was like that here in Australia in the 1960s and 70s, and we just beat cars until they stopped. Then in most states they introduced mandatory safety inspections every year, after the car is 5 years old. It got a hell of a lot of dubious cars off the roads, including most of mine LOL

    As to that semi blowout: I had a trailer tire blowout earlier this year and it bent the steel semi wheel in half and shot it off the hub, breaking two lugs and stripping the threads on the rest. The force shoved the trailer 5 feet sideways.
    Neither I nor the tire guy had ever seen anything like it. It looked like I had hit a pole at 100mph, but I was in a parking lot. The employees of the lot I was in came out guns drawn thinking there was a shotgun blast and an active shooter. lol

      Another good one is i was doing dump work hauling scrap. Chunk of steel fell off another truck into a mud hole that you had to cross to get out.

      The details vary from state to state, but we do require safety inspections in the US as well. In my state, we renew our license plates every other year. In order to get or renew plates, the vehicle must be inspected by a certified mechanic. In short, the cars you're talking about aren't legal here either, yet there they are.

    I had a 2015 Hyundai I 20 in today for a quite violent pull to the right,the customer had already had an alignment check at a place I know and trust and everything seemed to be in order. After removing the front wheels I had a nose around and peered through the small hole in the caliper bridge to check how the pads had been wearing,it looked like the anti squeal shim had shifted forwards so I pulled the caliper off only to find a tea spoon, bent over and wedged between the inner pad and the piston pushing the front of the pad into the disc and forcing the sliding caliper off at an angle causing the sliders to bind and holding the o/s brake on😁

    Most drivers today don't know anything about vehicles. They know to put in gas, start it, step on pedals and turn the wheel and take the vehicle in for maintenance when the book or dash tells them to. Most don't really know how to "drive", they just steer.
    Then there is the cost of repairs. Many people just don't have the money required for repairs on modern cars at garage rates, so they ignore things until it's a major problem.

    I was a vehicle safety inspector in the state of Utah until the legislature decided that the inspections were unnecessary. I was an honest inspector, about 2/3rds of the vehicles I inspected failed. But I received so much flak from dishonest inspectors that would just write up a pass certificate, it was very frustrating. And those inspectors are the reason the program was done away with, there was not enough funding for the Highway Patrol to investigate, charge and prosecute these criminally negligent inspectors.

    I'm so glad we in the UK have to put are car through an MOT to check it's still road legal, not to be confused with road worthy. For example an rust which has eaten a hole in the frame even if it's only big enough to get a screwdriver in. It's a fail, even a chip in the eye line of the driver, fail cracked lamp lense fail. Basically there lots of stuff to do when it's MOT time

    11:39 I had that happen to me on a 1999 Nissan Almera (pulsar, N15). I bought the car used, and don't know if the pads were OEM or not.
    But it cost me a complete new set of rear brakes (pistons were crusty around the seals).

    This is why i change my own oil and brakes. Plus i had a buddy try to change his oil for the first time after going to a quick lube place. Dont know what they did to the oil drain plug but we stopped wrenching on it when we got to the point we were scared we were gonna break it off.

    This is the problem with modern reliable cars, older cars used to get regular maintenance because they were unreliable and would leave you stranded at the drop of a hat, modern cars will do 150-200k miles before this sort of thing happens " without" regular" maintenance, and having any kind of an impact accident in a rust bucket "WILL" most likely kill you and or your kids

    6:55 I took a "tire" off a car like that a few weeks ago, but all that was left were the sidewalls, no tire. The sidewalls were so strong, the alloy rim didn't even have a scratch, lol! 10:15 Had a Mazda "lock-lug" nut shatter like this, leaving the bevel part on the stud. I had to melt out the stud with a blowtorch without destroying the alloy wheel, not fun. The broken edges of the piece of the lock nut weren't even rounded by the torch even after torching the stud out. My guess is that the nut was some crappy zinc alloy that was fireproof, but not shatterproof! I dispose of customer's "lock-lugs", and replace them with standard factory nuts every chance I get. Lug nuts are more affordable than alloy wheels, so I also replace my customers' badly worn lug nuts for this reason!

    With the amount of blow by that engine was creating I'm guessing that there was a lot of metal in the customer's oil pan.

    And many drove to the shop like that and the mechanic/tech took it for a test drive. Then you lift it up and see all the broken kill you, your neighbor on the road stuff. My other favorite is a fuel tank that's on E, light on and all, like gee thanks...but it never fails, fuel pump is out and the tank is topped off just as full as full can be.
    I like when I get gas at a station, and the guy on the other side is pulling the trigger to really top it off or get it exactly at 60 bucks, and I ask, I'm sorry to bother you, but does your car ever have trouble starting? And they're like yeah, how'd you know, and so I explain why you really shouldn't keep pulling the trigger after it stops. You may or may not know, but when you do that, you run the risk of pushing fuel back up and into the charcoal canister and other EVPA systems resulting in hard to start. Eventually it won't start at all. Your welcome!

    Thank God I work at a dealership and rarely see cars that are older than 4 or 5 years. Also, many mechanical issues, such as rusted control arms and other stuff linked to the suspension system, we would have to call the customer and tell them the car ain't coming out of the shop if it doesn't get fixed there and the only way to get it out is on a tow truck otherwise we simply deny working on it.

    • @lordnathan1

      good luck with that. Cause i don't take my car to a dealership cause those scum bags charge way more than local shops. But they tell me i ain't getting my car back then id sue till their shop was closed due to going broke. depends on the state where you live but you can't deny the customer their car back

      My older car was 19 years old. I got it from a family member. Honestly I don't know who their mechanic was but that car should have never left shop for sure. Everything rusted due to salt and humidity, weird noises, worn out belt, catastrophic engine bay with bolt fused to the frame and oil grime everywhere...and the cherry on top, heavy fuel leakage. I changed the belt and did my best with the engine bay but when rust starts and is well spread... it was a goner. Got it in autumn, drove it twice around the block(before a saw the entire state of the car), decided it was too dangerous and trashed it this summer. It was a Hyundai accent 2003 GS with 350 000km on the counter. It was already dead when I got it.
