#$%@ing Jiffy Lube!

I can't warn people enough. Stay away! The first time Jiffy Lube screwed up my car, they dislodged a vacuum hose, fortunately the only damage was performance. The second time they yanked the ground wire off the oil filter housing. I can't connect the dots but mysteriously my alternator died the next time I started her up. I've heard even worse stories about transmissions being destroyed by careless idiots who overtorque the bolts or worse. I don't think those guys have ever heard of torque wrenches. I've heard even worse horror stories about people trying to get Jiffy Lube to pay up for their "technicians"' mistakes.
I take mine to the dealer now. For an extra $5-$10 I at least have the peace of mind of knowing that the guys know Saabs and if something does go wrong I don't have to go far to complain.
