That happened to a buddy of mine with his Camaro a long time ago. Firestone did the same thing. It took a while for Firestone to accept liability, but they eventually paid to replace the motor without a lawyer's help.

That's the reason some oil change places apparently suck the old oil out through the dip stick, so they don't have to open the drain plug. Of course, they should still be changing the filter.

Damn sorry to hear This is EXACTLY why I change my own oil, it's a sad state of affairs when you can't trust anyone to do their job right. FWIW I always make sure my oil pressure light goes out when restarting the engine after an oil change.

Did they at least give you your drain plug back?
