Never get an oil change at Walmart

[SirRealKiller]

Wife took her car to Walmart to get an oil change.

Morons drained the transmission fluid , not the oil and then put 5 liters more oil in the engine. Wife went to go pick it up and it was blowing smoke like crazy and jerking when it moved. Luckily she only made it like have a block before bring it back. 2x the oild and no transmission fluid in it. Had to have it towed to the Subaru dealer. I guess we will be finding out if they're buying us a new car or not.

I typically bring mine to an actual mechanic and she usually brings hers to the dealership but she figured it would save some time this time around.

[The Dark Knight]

i thought it was public knowledge not to get a car fixed at walmart

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

I'm in the industry. We get at least 2 horror stories a week about wal mart fucking someone's car up one way or another.
You can't get your car serviced at the same place you buy dog food and toiletries, spend that little extra on your vehicle

I usually go to Valvoline or Castrol Quick Lube. It's $25 for conventional or $50 for full synthetic and they'll rotate tires for free.

Who tells their wife to take their car to Walmart for an oil change?

Do you even read bitch?!

This isn't just a Walmart thing. The lube techs at the dealerships are just kids that are learning. This happens more often than you think at a big dealership because the lowest of the low do the fast easy oil changes

 

[Jesus X]

The only reason I go to a walmart is if im traveling as they put them in bumfu** towns in the middle of nowhere.

 

[Ladder Master]

I make it a point not to go to Walmart for any reason unless absolutely necessary.

 

[Uber_Noober]

Thanks for the hot tip, but I’ve never in my life paid anyone to change my oil. Now get off my lawn!

I worked for WM auto department for a while. I can say this absolutely is based on location. One might be absolutely amazing while the one 5 minutes down the road will kill your car. I worked with some dudes that had been working on cars for 40 years

Where does it say he didn't know beforehand she was taking it to Walmart? She might have told him her plan about saving time and he agreed which would have been a mistake.

I have never actually been inside a Walmart. But from everything I have seen and read, you get lower prices on things, but the trade off is that they pollute everything, exploit Chinese labor, and the people in there both working and shopping suck to be around.

I seriously doubt the prices they offer on things that I would actually regularly buy are worth it.

If you save a dollar or two on something, it really isn’t worth putting up with all that shit unless it’s something you buy all the time.
