I have taken my car to walmart 50% of the time. Everytime I use mobil one full synthetic 10w30. I have never had a problem and it is by far the cheapest place.

Just to reinforce the "no's" with some hard evidence.....my lady took her car to walmart for a simple battery install. She went to drive it home
and none of her guages/speedometer worked. We immediately called and they had us bring it back......So they supposedly fixed whatever they had
messed up doing an easy install on a battery, she then developed a burning smell that was coming through the vents. Two to three weeks after that, she lost
the first two fan speeds on the heater/ac.

Coincidence? You decide. Its your ride. No offense to anyone that works there but its mostly all kids that don't really give a ____.
I guess that can really hold true for anywhere though. Its just easier to blame a walmart.

AAAAHHHHHHHH.....



never ever ever ever go to walmart.

I went to walmart to pick up some oil. yes i go to walmart to get oil sometimes. most of the time they have it realy cheap there and it is the same Castrol as i can get at AutoZone or Advance. But anyways, when i went back there to ask the guy for a few cases (yes a few cases, diesel trucks use lots of oil) There was this chick back there that was about 5 foot nothin and looked like she had down's syndrome (no offense to anyone) who had a name tag on that said "Shop Manager". That in its self made me decide to never let them touch my car.



Too bad you guys dont have a "Cavalier" where you live. They have the best mechanics in the valley here.

A little off topic, but has any seen the comedian Ron White and that bit he does about getting his tires rotated at Sears,
and how his tire fell off?? Its hilarious. Rent it if you haven't seen it. You'll like this guy from then out.
