 I had a coupon for $14.99-oil change and tire rotation from firestone.com. i brought my car into the shop...did not rotate tires and said they had no coupon. i was charged more than the coupon. i reluctantly paid the bill. i then drove to lakeville, mn...on my way to visit father in batesville, ar. i noticed a strange smell and almost the same time my car popped out of gear. so i pulled off i-35 and checked the oil. the cap was not on correctly, (1 1/2 turns then it was tightened) i called firestone immediately to report the cap and smell. my dipstick read full...i was not able to check the tranny fluid since it is below (manual transmission), but was assured by firestone they check the level with an oil change. long story short...i have had to replace my oilpan and transmission. now today there is no fluid in my radiator...and i have drained all of my resources and have become delinquent will my regular budget. there was only 1/2 qt oil in my motor and 1/2 qt tranny fluid in my transmission. i have all my receipts from regular maintenance and have spoken to mechanics. they have repeated to me that i need to find legal counsel or get help since the car was fine before i went to firestone. they have ignored my last 2 calls ( on hold)there was only 1/2 qt oil in my motor when i arrived at my fathers in arkansas. my car has never burned oil or the like. there was a hole in my oilpan between the size of a golfball and a tennis ball...the car did not hit anything to cause this. at the same time my oil was drained the dipstick continued to read full, the mechanic was concerned. i could no longer use 5th gear and 3rd gave out as well. firestone assured me all fluids were checked...but the mechanic was not convinced. my fathers new driveway was stained from the oil. i cannot remember which day i had my oil changed, friday or saturday july 18th or 19th. i need to find the receipt. *tr
