Yes, I suspect so. I wasn't flat shocked when I read Paperbackstash's most recent:

I always find it infuriating when people deny pure logic. It's
ridiculous to think that there was "oil all over the place" when the same people you hired to do the work didn't mention that, or say anything about it, in their initial review.

He said they could tell it had been building up for awhile -- makes no sense since we had no problems with the car and the mechanic told us engine was fine. He said about the oil....I'm like, it wasn't all over the place or burning oil before working on it. They even changed the oil and oil filter themselves Tuesday so how can they claim it's been an existing problem. ???

Exactly.

It's ridiculous. We are going to call an attorney for advice with the senior line tomorrow and I asked him to email me the findings just so have in writing.

Yup, I fear that's your only resort now. Such a damned shame. I'm sorry that this happened to your folks.
