Did your car not give you an alarm? The first thing I do after an oil change, something THEY should have done is start the car and watch the oil pressure gauge.

If this were the case then people could just abuse this by draining the oil after they drive off and claiming that the oil change place didn't put it any oil. Pretty good way to fraud insurance. Let this be a lesson OP, always check stuff before you complete a transaction.

Surprised you didn't notice oil gauge indicator turn on unless either you don't have one which i doubt or your sensor if phucked even then it 50/50 chance it turn on and stay on if its phucked, if a engine ran on no oil it be very load and start smoking and finally stop running then you have a 50/50 chance the engine would seize (friction between pistons and engine block wield themselves together) or add oil and will fire over and ran all depends type of engine/how fast you re-add oil to it, even if it does ran after, the pistons would have damage the inside engine block (shavings of metal) your car will sound like chit wont operated correctly and will fail shortly after. Jiffylube is 100% liable for your engine unless you signed a weaver saying not so. Would call manger or corp office as soon as it happened or in your case tomorrow.

GL op, I paid a shop 1k to fix my car. Drove it 5 miles down the road and the engine bay caught on fire. Fuel rail and fpr blew up. Took them to court to pay for it and the judge didn't make them do chit. I had to get it fixed out of my own pocket. All the mechanic said was that they didn't touch any of "those" parts. even though the egr is right next to all that stuff.
Crooked ass judge in my town i guess...FC: 2466-2670-1205

My friend once said **** oil and never got it changed. After a few years his entire engine exploded lol. Goodbye 6k for a new one. They have to cover all expenses for being idiots which is lucky for you OP. Get all future work done from the factory and don't let them touch it. Mechanics are all sketchy mother ****ers and will make it seem like it was your fault if you bring the car back. Get a quote from someone else and bring it to them to pay. Work a deal and make sure they pay first.
