My engine is ruined. I had my oil changed by a local "Lube Express" facility on 2/10/2010 then drove directly home (10 miles). I didn't drive my car again until 2/12/2010. I was driving down a busy road when I heard a "clunk." Seconds later my engine started knocking, my oil light came on, I pulled off the road as soon as safely possible, but too late, it took about 30 seconds to loose my engine. I took photo's of the resulting oil slick, and the filter in the ditch and had my car towed to my mechanic. I went to "Lube Express" across the street and they are jacking me around because I didn't have the car towed to them. I certainly didn't have my oil change receipt with me at the time, it was in my file at home. I gave permission for them to assess my car, and even tow it to their facility. I don't want to have to go to small claims court, but will if I have to.
I'm furious. Advise is welcome and appreciated.
