On a related note, I wonder how often dealerships forget to actually do the repairs that they charged for. Like if the service people forgot to change the oil filter with the oil change, no one would know.

That is a scary thought. 99% of people would never know.

My daughter and I were doing oil changes today on my Yaris and Subaru Crosstrek and with it being the first time I changed oil on the crosstrek, I misjudged the exit angle of the oil and made a big ol' mess of the garage floor. Once we finished cleaning the mess, I mentioned to my daughter that getting distracted that way, we could so easily have forgotten to refill the oil.

Years aago my brother changed the oil on his 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix and forgot to put the drain plug back in so all six quarts of oil drained right back on the ground. Boy was his face red. lol
