Car wash ripped off driver side mirror/camera. District manager promised to get it replaced. He originally volunteered that the equipment was old and was soon to be taken away. He also stated that he was shutting the car wash down immediately. He received my estimate of repairs and never called back. Then reopened the car wash. When I was finally able to reach him again, he reneged on his original statement and said the company has no liability because there is a disclaimer sign up.Business Response

Had an oil change on our vehicle and the oil plug was not securely installed, causing all the oil to drain out and caused engine shuttering. Had vehicle towed to another business who idendified the drain plug was out and stuck between the oil pan and frame (have pictures). Filed a claim with Jiffy Lube, provided all the requesed information, and was asked for my banking info so they could reimburse me the cost of the tow and the service by the 2nd business. Have not received any response on the reimbursement. It has been 3 months since the initial claim was filed and 30 days since the banking information was provided.Business Response

On May 23, 2023 I visited Jiffy Lube #**** at *********************************** in ********** for an oil and car filter change. The service was not completed yet I was charged full price and defrauded. The technicians at Jiffy Lube reset the oil change indicator on my car to read that the oil change has been completed. I was charged a total of $92.01 for the service, and for a month and a half, I was unknowingly driving a car with extremely low oil and a clogged filter. I did not find this out until I took my car to my mechanic for its annual ****************** car inspection. My mechanic, ****, at ****** **** center on ***********************, in Mount Lebanon, ************, told me about the situation. He told me the oil had not been changed and the car filter had not been changed because the oil was very dark and very low. There was little difference between the mileage at the time of the oil change at Jiffy lube and the car inspection 6 weeks later. **** agreed to be contacted regarding this matter. I contacted the district manager whose name is ******* to address this problem. ******* put me off for 2 days, I called her back and she refuses to issue a refund claiming that it's their policy. Sh offered a free oil change service instead, but since the service was never completed and I was defrauded, I do not trust the vendor to complete the service. I do not want a free oil change.Business Response

I got an oil change from Jiffy Lube on 4/30/2023. My vehicle had no leaking oil before then. Now my vehicle leaks oil from the oil pan drain plug, runs pretty roughly, and there is also some kind of sealant around the stripped plug, that was not there previously. I purchased the vehicle a few months ago, there was no leak. Now there is and Im going to have to either replace my oil pan, or get it **********.Business Response

On June 17, 2023, I had my car serviced for an oil change at Jiffy Lube in Grand, ** by two of Jiffy Lube workers at 3:05pm! Left the shop driving home. As soon as I got to interstate 20 my oil pan light came on, then the check engine light came on, the car started to drive kind of sluggish and slowing down so I go get over to the far-right lane to find an exit. I exited Oak Grove exit and at the light the car stalled at the light and the car completely cut off. Something told me to check my oil so when I did that there was no oil on the dip stick. So, I dip it back in checking for oil it was bone dry on the stick. I did video record it to show there was no oil on the dip stick. I called Jiffy Lube and spoke with the Manager ****, and he came out to come look at under the car and informed me that his workers did not tighten the oil filter and it fell off my car, who also admitted to the negligence. I had to have my car towed back to my apartment, then on the 06/22/2023 I was able to have it towed to the ****** dealership. I have been without my car since 06/17/2023 and I am demanding that "Loss of Use of Vehicle" due to Jiffy Lube negligence from an oil change. I have been speaking with the store manager **** store contact # ************ and the district manager *********************** ************. I have been told that they will not provide me with a rental to get to work and other obligations I have. I am going on week three and still no transportation. I am on a budget and can't afford to pay for a rental out of my pocket. Jiffy Lube (Premium Velocity Auto) has cause me mental stress, anguish and suffering since 06/17/2023. They waited almost 3 weeks to send paperwork that has an estimate for $6177.88 that is for the engine and the tow to ****** dealership. The paperwork included that I would sign to release them of all liability pertaining to the loss use of my vehicle and whether is fixed or not. I did not sign the paperwork by law I have every right not tooBusiness Response

Customer came in for service on 6/17 and after a period of time called and spoke with the store manager informing him the vehicle would not accelerate. Manager determined there was no oil filter on the vehicle. (it is still unknown if this was a workmanship issue or a product issue related to the oil filter).
The guest at that time had the vehicle towed back to their home instead of a repair facility as recommended.
on 6/22 the vehicle arrived at the dealership. Several days later we were able to get a written estimate for repairs, until that point only a verbal estimate / quote was given. Once we received the proper documentation needed to complete our investigation, I had a conversation with the guest informing them we would be issuing a ACH for the amount of the quoted engine replacement and for the tow.
As of 7/10 the guest has informed me, they will be sending the contract along with the necessary details to process the ACH.

The following is because I took my 2021 Kia Sorrento car to the service at the Jiffy Lub store and a few days later my car had an accident and since it is under warranty by Kia, the dealer's tow truck looked for it in the place where it was damaged, the next One day they issued a report where it says that the damage to the engine was because the oil level was exceeded by the Jiffy lub mechanic. In the Jiffy lub store they tell us that they are investigating because apparently the damage is from a part that already came damaged... well, I understand that they are looking for who it was while I'm waiting since I don't have the vehicle and my plans for everything have changed... I would appreciate the help. I need to have my car in the same condition that I had it, because I bought a new 2021 car from Kia and it already had 40,000 mills and I took a new car to service and in optimal conditions.Business Response

Oil change/tire rotation/NC state inspection at Jiffy Lube location on 7/27. Left Jiffy Lube and drove home. Left home 2 hours later and noticed oil warning light was on. Stopped at gas station. No oil in car. Called Jiffy Lube. Assistant manager drove out to ****** * where car was parked and added approx 4.2-4.4 quarts of oil to car. Engine/oil plug was on car so oil did not drain out. No oil was added to car after oil change- it was only drained. Everything I have read, or everyone I have talked to with car experience says there was permanent damage caused to my engine by driving with no oil. It was only 5-6 miles total but the damage has been done. Scheduled to have car towed to ***** ****** on 8/1 for diagnostic and inspection. I expect Jiffy Lube to pay for any damage and replace engine. I have been in contact with my insurance and Jiffy Lube.Business Response
