ATS are a Fuc*ing Joke!!!
My dad went to take his car to ats today for a free 10 point check and an oil change. The guy said that they couldn't do the 10 point check because they only had one mechanic!!!? and they couldn't do an oil change because they ran out of oil 2 months ago!!!!! 
Anyone else had stuff happen like this from ATS?
