[QUOTE="ORVietVet, post: 21652, member: 9438"] Then I had a customer from previous work, call me out of the blue and asked if I could install his new battery. He said other shops were putting him off for at least a week. It is a 2015 Ford Escape SLE AWD with the 1.6 turbo. I found a coolant leak that 3 other shops could not find, about 1.5 years ago. Done a couple oil changes and Reinstalled a rubbed off fuel tank cover for him as well. Took 30 minutes to install battery. Remove wiper arms, remove upper and lower cowlings and dig out of the box it is in, in front of driver close to the firewall. Then I reset his oil change reminder light and asked why? He said he had the oil changed and realized that he slipped up. I saw a new sticker and he did not call me for the oil change and the shop did not do the reminder light reset. I told him $40 for the battery install and he paid me $50 instead and begged forgiveness for not calling me about the oil change.
