[QUOTE="smurfslayer, post: 1809023, member: 21926"] That’s not really a good analogy. A better analogy would be if you ordered food and they sprinkled small doses of a carcinogen on the food and didn’t tell you for several visits. Or maybe they didn’t prepare it right and you got food poisoning, had to go to the hospital, but checked out ok. This isn’t getting your meal wrong, wrong oil could compromise the long term durability of the vehicle, something the shop should very well know. In all likelihood, if it was a good, full synthetic, and changed out at early intervals, he will probably be fine but yeah, JL definite owes him a heartfelt apology and an offer to make it right. I thing the oil analysis is a good start. My Lincoln stealership routine service is done exclusively by ASE certified techs. Maybe Ford doesn’t but at least my Lincoln service does. video and all. Point taken. I hear you. Can I do it, sure. probably the easiest vehicle I have to change oil on that has more than 2 wheels. but there is other stuff to maintain and I do like the idea of having other eyes on my truck once in a while. Good start here. if they used a decent oil, synthetic hopefully, then you should be fine if intervals were low mileage. [/QUOTE]
