A woman says a mechanic wasn’t thrilled when she declined to buy a new engine air filter during an oil change, insisting she’d replace it herself instead.
Kaylie Cheyenne (@kaylie_cheyenne_), a Texas-based content creator, shared the exchange after taking her vehicle to Take 5 for routine maintenance, including an oil change, a replacement plug gasket, and a new oil filter.
“How the guy doing my oil change acted when I told him I’ll change my own air filter,” she wrote in the text overlay of her clip.
Cheyenne then showed her receipt, which included the note: “Customer did not want air filter air filter is sucking in bad.”
The video cuts to a new air filter sitting on the ground, suggesting she bought the part herself and installed it after leaving the shop.
