Had a new event happen today. Isuzu dealership forgot to reinstall oil fill cap. In 40 years never had this happen before. I think I will start doing my own service work:(

Had that happen to one of my son's. Forgot the oil cap and it blew all of the oil on the driveway. They said he did it!

I told them WTF would he remove the cap? Stoopids.

I change my own oil on my cars.

I left the cap off on my judson after an oil change. Came out to see oil smoking like crazy on the exhaust. Probably was less than a minute away from a complete inferno.

I had the "cap forgotten" result before.

Of course they didn't do it.

Also had a tire place forget to tighten 4 nuts....and I drove the car for a thousand miles straight through Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Germany, Sweden and Denmark.

Sometimes hitting over 100mph.

I was able to turn the nuts by hand when we realized it.
