I was planning something like this.... Im going to take it down first thing monday morning, and speak with the manager. If all goes well, Im going to tell him Im going to take it to Toyota and have them fix the hood liner, replace the cap, clean the motor, and a new oil change, (dirt might have fallen inside) Im not going to let this shop do anymore work on my car, even if its free. If they dont help me out Ill try to make some phone calls. What is "ARD" and "EPA"?They have numbers here on the recipt.

fuuuuck that...drive it all you want. What if its your only car and you have 3 kids or some shit. Do they expect you to sit home until they decide to open up shop again. Do they expect you to rent a car so you wont drive the car they fucked up? If so they should pay a rental fee. Either way its SO easy to see they did it. Car is brand new, there are clear records they did an oil change for you and you only live 4 miles from home which will show on the paperwork. Don't fret man they will take care of it for you. They'd be stupid not to.

This sounds damn familiar another guy I know has a Jetta 1.8T and took it to one of these places and overfilled his car with oil and it caused damages that the dealer had to fix and last I heard the speedy oil change place is still denying all responsability. what a bunch of poo heads

High Street Auto is a crappy place, they dented my droptop and they don't know how to fix shit! Damn that sucks man, I would tell them they need to replace everything or you will contact the BAR, that is the only place that will do anything.

Well I have to say the shop is taking complete responsibility and they are going to clean it all up and get me a new cap. He said if they cant clean the hoodliner, They will get me a new one. Ill have the wife take it in on weds, and wait with it. Im very pleased with their attitude and how they are trying to make it right. Ill let you guys know how it plays out

I remember when i first bought my Honda and took it for an oil change, week later i seen oil leaking underneath the engine so i thought i messed something up while driving so i took it back to the same oil change to get new oil put in (thought i was leaking too much) they told me that the Oil Filter was faulty so they replaced it for free and apologized for the inconvience (sp?) - Ive been using them ever since
