I went to Jiffy Lube once. HUGE MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Took my '89 Volvo 740 Wagon before a trip to Vermont. They drained the Transmission not the motor oil. Then they overfilled the motor oil. When i started off after paying, there was a cloud of smoke out the exhaust. Took it right back. They said they used the wrong weight oil, drained the oil and replaced it with the right oil. (The trans was still empty!) Drove right to the highway and fried the transmission. I had to sit in the regional Jiffy Lube (Penzoil) office and told them to get the police to remove me before they agreed to fix the trans. This was done but the trans still gives me problems. I will NEVER go to Jiffy Lube again.

Joe.
