I've heard stories of oil change places not tightening the bolt, and 300 miles later, it unscrews from vibrations and the oil pan empties out in the road.
I had an oil change place over torque the bolt once and strip the threads.
One oil change place wouldn't change my oil because there was a dent in the oil pan.
Now I do my own oil changes and lubes whenever I can.
Another oil change place/repair garage that I used for years overinflated my tires. This garage has a checklist of things they do in addition to changing the oil. They check tires, add air, top off fluids, etc. The next morning after an oil change, I went out to the suburban and the left rear tire was flat. It had split open on the side. I suspected overinflation. I checked the other tires and they had 60-plus PSI. I reduced them to the normal 33-35. Called the garage and told them, and they said that there's nothing wrong with 60-plus PSI in tires.
There are many ways the repair garages, lube joints, and tire stores can rip you off.
