Hello Pammie,
I am sorry you're having all these problems with your car I
just LOVE mine. Can you park your car on a level spot overnight if you can
raise the hood and check the oil on the dipstick after the car has been parked
overnight,before you crank it up.Pammie if you do this YOURSELF everyday for
about a week and then once or twice a week thereafter YOU won't have to take
anybodies word about your oil level you'll have the piece of mind of
knowing.Also I would stick with the type oil filter that came on the car if you
put a longer one on there is a chance you could hit something in the road and
puncture it causing you to lose all your oil and then destroy your engine,I
would very strongly recommend you to use a good 100% synthetic oil to eliminate
the dreaded Sludge problem that everyone complains about.I have an 02 with
about 114,000 miles and yes its the 2.7 and NO problems ,I change oil and
filter every 3000 miles or three months .I hope this helps you because
YOU have a Great car. About the long filter it hangs down lower than the oil
pan so that puts it and the car in a risky situation .

This is already the second shop I have taken it to.
The place I bought it here in my town kept saying nothing was wrong with my
brakes...a long time a go. My x called Michigan and they said they had alot of
complaints on then to take it to one of 2 shops they recommended..
so I picked one. I have to drive a hour just to get there. I have been pleased
with there work until this. I am totally confused over all this with the oil.
Saying it was over when the stick showed none and being told by so many people
this is not possible leaves me to wonder what really is my problem!!!
do I have one or was it just the simple fact that the connectors were loose and
oil escaped???
confused!

No, they can't, and as I advised you before Pammie, you need to start taking
your car to a different shop. The fact that the guy was rude to you ought
to be a red flag.
