    thats what happened to my Z24.. my brother took it into walmart for an oil change, they stripped the drain plug, two weeks later my niece took it to a friends shop because it was "making a funny noise" (knocking, in two cylinders) he took out the plug, sealed it up (it was 3.5qt low of oil) and put it back, when the knocking got worse, my brother took it back to WM, they are "not liable for any damage to the engine, since the paint mark had been removed"

    needless to say, my brother now has oil changes done at the dealer.

    Oh Walmrt......what can you say about walmart, I can think of some things to say. I do go there only cause it's the closest thing to home.
    They have 16 checkout lanes at the one I was just at today, 3 lanes were open and lines like crazy, people were pissed. Walmart employees standing around bull sh*tting.
    Now they have the self check lanes and when you check yourself out half the stuff is not in the system, now someone has to go find the item on the shelf for a price check. Now everybody behind you is also getting pissed cause only 2 of the 4 self checkouts are open ....So one would think that since we check ourselves out we would get some sort of discount since we are doing their work.....right? I won't go to those self checkout lines.

    It fell OFF. Then I find out, Sears sent this guy to Tire Changing School for three days. Apparently he missed the lug nut day...

    This happens at many places besides wal-mart. I'm wondering if employees really are that untrained and completely daft or maybe its a combination of untrained & way-underpaid employees. I heard the other day the guys working at the local Dodge dealership only make 9$ an hour & they have to be trained by Dodge. (Dodge charges what 95$ an hour?) This could be a good reason why employees are screwing up ppls cars so frequently. =/

    Training? Are u kiddin me? When I was 16 I worked at valvoline. Training? Yeah right. Places like that don't train people. They don't have to. They figure if a stupid untrained kid screws up a cars motor by not puttin oil back in it, they don't care cuz they r so huge they can afford to buy someone off. Its a crappy process. I never ruined anyones car. A guy I worked with forgot to put oil back in a spankin new ford diesel. Motor crapped out pretty quick. Another women wanted her cooling system flushed. When the guy got done he didn't put those crappy cross hose clamps back on the right way and all the coolant bled out eventually lockin up the motor. Sh** happens all the time. If I were anyone on here, stay clear of those kinda places. Ur just askin for trouble. Besides, changin ur oil is one of the first things someone should learn how to do on a car. U should just do it urself

    at the shop I work at, WalMart is one of our best customers.... we fix all their f-ups, at least 5 a month (mostly stripped oil plugs, cross threaded/stripped wheel studs, etc).

    Wal-mart's TLE employees should at the very least be made to watch training videos to prevent this. Happy to hear they bring business to other ppl though. Haha =D

    I think its not lack of training its people who just dont care! I know if I worked in a place like that I would make sure everything was right just because I wouldn't want that to happen to me! People have lost respect!
