Some Toyota (Camry/Solara) owners were denied engine replacements after failure because Toyota claimed that the oil changes were done incorrectly.
The people who got 100% free engine replacements? - The ones who had their oil changes done at the dealer.
Look up Camry Engine sludge problem if you dont believe me.
Ok so that part makes sense, but still doesn't explain why he doesn't just change the fucking oil himself if he cares so much about his car. If the dealer fucks uo they're liable Yeah but who wants that headache? Because it's a "free" headache?
