I went for an oil change Labor Day weekend. The employee didnt bother to put the splash guard back on my car, stating they didnt have the plastic clips. They said theyll call me back. Its been close to a month no phone call. Ive went to the location every week expecting to get a resolution. Nothing! I just want this corrected.Business Response

I went to Take 5 Oil Change in ******, ** on 10/3/2022 to receive oil change. While getting oil change, I was told I had an oversized drain plug on my oil pan. Take 5 has done my oil changes on time, for the last year and a half. I told them, nobody has ever told me there was an oversized drain plug on my car. Nobody has said anything to me except how much it was going to cost, or if I wanted to change my air filters. He looked in the notes, and there was no comments stating this. They completed the oil change. I woke up the next day, 10/04/2022 to see an oil puddle under my car. I immediately went back up to take 5, told them I had an oil leak, showed pictures. They said it wasn't a big deal, topped of the oil, and "tightened" the plug. They told me to go to a full service mechanic shop to get a diagnosis and invoice of work that needed to be done. They referred me to ******************************* in ************, **. I called ******** immediately and they told me to bring it in first thing in the morning on 10/5/2022. I took car to ********, they gave me invoice on work that was needed to be performed (new oil pan). Took that to Take 5, they wrote an email to corporate giving them the details of what is going on. I waited 2 hours, to hear the verdict of what corporate came back with. They said they are going to try to find someone else to perform the job, because ******** was too expensive (they told me to go there). I get a call later from the manager reading me a warranty disclosure saying something about the service happened outside of 30 days, **** miles. I immediately told him this happened on Monday (2 days ago) and I haven't went over **** miles. It's infuriating to see how many complaints they have with similar problems, all over the U.S. And the fact they try to find reasons to not make their mistakes right, DISRESPECTUFL!Business Response

Son took my car for a basic oil change on 8/17/22 (receipt #****) costing $95.91. Within 24 hours all oil had leaked out of the car and various engine warning lights came on. Had to take the car to a local repair garage to have it repaired at a cost of $183.68. Not all repairs were due to the bad oil change provided but a part of the cost was having the oil changed again at the new location.Business Response

My daughter got her oil change and Take 5 and they overfill her oil and left reservoir cap off. Therefore oil came out the reservoir cap and got all over the engine causing the car engine to kill and it would not start up. She notify Take 5 and they towed it to mechanic shop. Now they are failing to answer my calls. I have been renting a car for my daughter. And they said they would reimburse me. But every time I call I get voicemail. I did file a complaint with Take 5 **************** and I have not heard back from them in 2 days. I just want Take 5 to reimburse me for the rental car cost and get my daughters car back running.

The customer rejected the response without providing the required information requested.

My wife and I took our car into Take 5 for an oil change and didn't want anything other than an oil change. After a couple of days, my wife and I noticed a ticking sound coming from the engine. We decided to check the oil and the car had no oil inside of it. We took it back to Take 5 where the supervisor supposedly checked everything and the conclusion was, that model of car is known to burn oil quickly. I expressed that the car being service was not our only model of that car and the others do not burn oil that quickly. A couple of days later the exact same thing. This even more aggressive ticking coming from the engine. So we decide to take the car to the dealership where the mechanic called us and asked where did we get the oil change from. We told him and he sent us pictures of oil leaking from 2 places due to the drain plug and oil filter not being tightened properly. We took the findings back to Take 5 and the supervisor told us to ****** cooperates number. We let him know that he should get the number as he is the supervisor which he did. Upon calling cooperate we are greeted by an automated service in which you must press 3 for recent service issue and once you press 3 it goes directly to a voicemail. We left the voicemail and 3 days later the same guy who messed our car up calls us saying his is in charge of investing the issue. I'm sorry but this is plain wrong. There is no other number to contact anyone higher. I am now having to rent cars while my car is serviced. Not to mention after the oil change the oil light stayed on and hasn't gone off since. Before taking our car here everything was running perfectly.Business Response

Customer is correct, the manager of shop #*** contacted the customer to request the paperwork from the mechanic stating the vehicle was leaking from the plug and filter and the customer did not want to present that evidence to the shop.
Take 5 inspected the vehicle when the customer returned and did not see any leaks from plug or filter. Customer will not let ********************** look at vehicle, therefore we cannot assist since we did not get permission to inspect the vehicle or the customer would not provide diagnostics from a mechanic or dealer identifying the oil change at Take 5 was the reason the motor was ticking.
See email below from shop that was sent to customer service to add to the case.

I am rejecting this response because: The person that called me to look at the car is the exact person who messed the car up. The car was taken back to ****** before the compliant was filed. ****** was very reluctant to even look at the car. Eventually ****** had me pull in to look at the car. The car was then taken to Car *** where it was documented that the car was loosing oil because the drip pan plug and the oil filter were not tightened properly. Upon finding this out I went back to Take 5 to speak with ****** in person where I asked for cooperates number in which he told me to ****** it. I then filed a complaint with BBB. Some days later I get a called from ****** telling me he is in charge of investigating the matter. Why would the same person with whom the complaint involves be the one handling the investigation? I did tell ************** would not let him touch my car again because the first two times he didn't know what he was doing why would I take it back to him a third time. I then asked if I could talk to anyone higher and he stated that he was the supervisor of that location. The root of our car problems started the moment with pulled away from Take 5. The car had zero issues before we took the car there. I did let ****** know that if I didn't hear from someone other than him, I would seek legal council to resolve the matter since there is zero way to contact anyone from Take 5's cooperate office. The line rings and goes to voicemail in which when you leave a voicemail that store calls you not anyone from cooperate.

It is irrelevant who inspects the vehicle for a customer issue. There is no additional work being done on the vehicle during the inspection. A claim inspection form is filled out, the oil filter is photographed, the drain plug is photographed the oil level is photographed and vehicle information is added to the form. This information is required for Take 5 to assist with any repairs or reimbursements. The customer refused to let ****** inspect the vehicle and fill out the claim form. Take 5 will not process a claim without this information. Take 5 must document proof that the oil change issue being reported by a customer is the fault of the service preformed. We did not have the opportunity to obtain the information from this customer.Initial Complaint

On September the 2, 2022 at approxmaitely 11:30 am. I went to Take 5 located in ********** *********. There was two service attendant that was working on my vehicle. My vehicle is a 2017 QX Infinity the color is white. The service attendant asked me what brings me in today I said an oil change. I informed him I was getting on the road to Indiana for a funeral. During my service I purchased the upgraded oil and a back windshield wiper blade, which the store didnt have in store, and I waited 15 min for the manager to go get one. I asked the gentleman can they make sure they reset my dash, so it read the miles. He claims he did. As I pulled off around 12:30 pm. There were no lights on, and everything seemed find. I was on 94 going south for a least 2 hours. I noticed my oil pressure light come on and my engine light. I got off at the next exit at a gas station. I raised my hood up and noticed smoke a lot of black dust and oil all over all my parts underneath my hood. I then proceeded to check my oil on the dip stick. I didnt see any oil at all, it was bone dry. I then removed the oil cap and proceeded to pour 1 quart of oil in the vehicle, and I noticed it was coming right out underneath the car. I then had my son go under the car and tell me if he can see the problem. My son informed me there was a s**** miss from where they drain the oil out at. I have a picture of this I called a tow truck and had my vehicle towed to the nearest dealership where they proceeded to fix the issue for me. The next morning, I called the take 5 store in ********** and informed them on what happened I talked to a manager by the name of ***. I was very upset I told her everything, she apologizes and offered a free oil change the next time. *** asked me to bring the vehicle to the shop as soon as I made it back and I did. *** wasnt there and the other staff didnt have a clue of what was going on. So, I left and didnt return. I want a full reimbursement of everything.Business Response

On 06/18/2022 there was damage done to my *** 2020 oil cap/oil cap housing, which resulted in an incomplete service. I had to leave my car at ********************************************************, and I was told that the oil cap would be paid for, as well as the ride sharing costs until the issue was resolved. From 6/18 until 6/21 my car was at the shop, while my car was in the shop I utilized Lyft and in total spent $84.02. I was told that the refund request would be processed in 5-7 business days after I provided receipts. Manager *********************** received the receipts on 6/29 and stated that he would process the receipts that day. On 7/14 I emailed ****** and informed him that I didn't received the reimbursement, and I inquired about getting a contact number that I could call to determine the whereabouts of my refund. On 7/15 ****** sent me a message and later a phone call advising me of a staff shortage at the headquarters and that I should receive the refund within a week. On 7/21 I emailed customer service and gave them details of my situation, and shared my concern on how I didn't receive a refund in over a month's time. On 7/21 *********************** responded to the email. She said the payment was processed on 7/19, and the refund should be in my mailbox within 14 business days. On August 8th, I emailed *********************** and informed her that I didn't receive the refund, and told her that it doesn't take 14 days for a check to be mailed, and asked her to advise. On 8/16, after *********************** didn't reply to my email I called headquarters, and requested to speak with her. In the conversation ***** said the refund was processed on 7/19, but no other actions was made. Then she proceeded to say that the refund was less than $84.02. I ended up speaking with the **************** Manager *******************, and he instructed me to re-send the receipts. Later that day **** confirmed that he received the receipts, and the check would be mailed the next day. However, I still haven't received the refund.Business Response

Take 5 Oil Change sent a refund check to the customers home address twice. The reason it was not received, is because we had the incorrect mailing address, we had an apartment number associated to the home address. After emailing the customer to confirm the address, the case was reopened, the checks sent to the customer were cancelled and a new check was sent to the customer at the correct address.

I am rejecting this response because: theres no excuse why I havent received my refund yet, the negligent incident occurred back in June. I heard conflicting information and excuses throughout this whole process which started at the shop level during the inability to complete a routine oil change.By far the worst customer service experienced that Ive encountered therefore I have no good faith regarding Take 5 Oil Change. Ive been patient even in my disgust. To date I havent received the refund check and have no way of tracking an alleged check, neither did I have any documentation that evidenced any prior checks being sent out.

I am rejecting this response because:
There is no justification for my refund being delayed since the initial incident that occurred in June. I gave shop #*** my address back in June. An incorrect address was recorded after I inquired about never receiving my refund that took place after the initial overwhelming delay occurred. Lets be clear my refund has been delayed time after time. This is the 4th or 5th phase of delay. In the last message it was stated that my refund was sent to the corrected address. Since that last message more than a week has passed. In this latest communication it reads that the customer is being refunded. Thats clearly a conflicting narrative. What hasnt been communicated is the date the a refund check was mailed nor any documentation to support that it was mailed out. I checked my mailbox on Friday and I didnt receive a check. Nevertheless if the check was sent to the corrected address as the prior message indicated I wouldve received it by now. This company is inadequate throughout the organization. Unfortunately I became aware of this firsthand.

This is the first time Take 5 Oil Change has received information that customer ******************************* is stating ********************** cracked the oil filter housing on her vehicle. We have no way to confirm the issue actually happened at Take 5. The customer has no cases open with the shop that serviced her vehicle or the corporate office. The customer has not contacted customer service or the shop to properly investigate her claim that the shop ,cracked her oil filter housing.
I was unable to locate any service invoices from the customers first & last name or phone number provided **************. The customer provided no information in this complaint about what location serviced the vehicle or any diagnostics stating the oil filter housing is cracked. The customer will need to return to the shop that serviced her vehicle so the shop can fill out the required claim inspection form to properly investigate if Take 5 cracked the oil filter housing.
Customer provided no information to show ********************** would be responsible to repair the oil filter housing.
