Jiffy Lube Scam The Autogabber says, “Take you car to the dealer or an independent shop. Spend the extra money, because it’s worth every penny!” He adds, “A quality repair shop will spend the extra time to safety check your car and give you legit feedback. Quick lube places always oversell, especially their bogus claims about changing oil every 3,000 miles. Follow your factory recommendation on oil changes, unless you plan to keep the car 200,000 miles. In that case, switch to synthetic and change every 5,000 to 7,500 miles.”
