Had a more dangerous thing happen to me. Went in for a brake job and the bolts that hold one of the pads were stripped out by some wrench jockey. One another occasion my (aluminum) oil pan bolt was stripped at an oil change. Thank God it didn't fall out while I was cruising down the freeway.

The quality of labor is slipping in places like these. In one unnamed place they use the supervisor to run the front end while occasionally dashing off to approve work in the bays. Not a good idea. Stay away from these.

Research and stick with a good shop if you can find one. The internet comments can be misleading too if the shop owner has a big family :-) But you can usually spot that with experience.
