Again for the second time getting my oil change they forgot to check my ties the low air pressure light was on after I got back into my car. The first time I returned and got it done by that nice young lady at the service desk. This past time I said forget it and went on my way. Again it was a Saturday and I was in no hurry. Plus my fluid level was low for my windshield wipers. I did that myself also. I thought it said all levels are checked. Please explain.
