Back in Dec., 2019, I had my oil change at Walmart store 1480 (Winchester,Indiana), since Walmart TLE (tire lube express) is closed because of the virus, i figure ,what the h---, I'll just do it myself.
I gather up what is needed to do an basic oil change (oil filter and oil and tools). Since I worked at Walmart TLE, for 11 years straight, with no write-up. At the time of my leaving Wally world, I made Walmart min wage, but that means nothing, that just 1 of the reason, i don't shop there.
Anyway, my oil filter is located near the front of the car, easy to get to (:, so that was the first thing i was going to do. oil filter..... over torque, can't get it to release. Had to run to the store, not Walmart, to get a oil filter wrench($6.99). After some well choice word, and a few bruise knuckles, finally got it off. i could tell by looking at the oil filter gasket (it was distorted) , that it was over torque . After replacing the filter, i went after the oil drain plug. I could not get it to move, so find my paperwork from Walmart ,showing that they were the last ones to do the oil change. I took my car with the new filter and and old oil, back to Walmart to get them to just release that plug, so i could finish this up. I was told by management, that they had no one that could fix the problem that they created. So now I'm stuck with running my car with new filter and old oil, until i can find a garage that can release my drain plug , and then I have to replace the filter again, pay to have the plug release, a new plug(got a feeling the plug will get rounded off),all out of my pocket.
