Narrative

FIRST OIL CHANGE AT DEALERSHIP ON MY 2005 HONDA CRV AT 3500 MILES. FLAMES BURSTING OUT THE FOLLOWING DAY, WITH OIL SPRAYING ALL OVER. NO INJURIES. TOWED TO DEALER TO FIX. OXYGEN SENSORS NEEDED REPLACING. APPARENTLY, THIS DEFECT HAS BEEN KNOWN ABOUT FOR A COUPLE YEARS, BUT DEALER STILL FLUBBED THE OIL CHANGE.
