Pfft, with labor shortages these days, ain't nobody got time for that!Gee, perhaps a little training would go a long way...
I service a friend's (widow) gorgeous 2015 Jeep GC with the Turbo Diesel. She had it in at the dealer for a recall and they changed the oil.I guess taking a car to them for service is like playing Russian Roulette with three bullets in the gun.
You're right "it ain't only Jiffy."I service a friend's (widow) gorgeous 2015 Jeep GC with the Turbo Diesel. She had it in at the dealer for a recall and they changed the oil.
I did the next service and the drain bolt had to be wrenched all the way out; this was never the case in the 5+ services I did. I thought it was crossed, but I wire brushed the threads and it reinstalled by fingers only.
So it ain't only Jiffy... Who knows?
These things can happen anywhere. Though I’ll admit they happen at a more frequent rate at quick lubes.I service a friend's (widow) gorgeous 2015 Jeep GC with the Turbo Diesel. She had it in at the dealer for a recall and they changed the oil.

Definitely not only quick lubes, but it makes me chuckle that someone who likely overpaid thousands for a new vehicle is saving $20 by going to Jiffy Lube.I service a friend's (widow) gorgeous 2015 Jeep GC with the Turbo Diesel. She had it in at the dealer for a recall and they changed the oil.

why does anyone take a new-ish still under warranty vehicle to Jiffy Lube?
Ford should have the plastic yellow ‘plug’ style drain plug on all vehicles.
I really want to like his channel. I usually watch PTT with AROD.That's funny. That's Rich one of the Master Techs that works at the dealership I work for!
Well that explains it now. Why Ford would trust an outside provider anywhere near a drainplug on a covered vehicle....... one stupid minute & there's explaining ($) to do. Had no idea that would be contracted out. I look under there when doing changes, torn CV boot(s), leaks from where ever, like the water pump weep hole. Handing it off to Jiffy L. seems short-sighted.The video explains (and is the same for the fleet where I am employed).
Our services for our fleet are put out to bid yearly. We are required to take our vehicles to the authorized servicer. Currently, that is Jiffy lube for routine oil and filter service. In the past we've also used Valvoline instant oil change. That's where our brand new units end up having to go...
