Shop never refilled gear oil after new seals
Long story short after my most recent trip to my not so local jeep shop in central jersey (name withheld for now) they forgot to fill my front diff with gear oil after replacing seals and shafts. After about 200+ miles of driving I noticed a lot of noise from the front end. I put the front end on jack stands and could hear the noise rotating the tires. Pulled the fill plug and smelt burnt metal, pulled the drain and nothing came out. I did not pull the cover. I filled the diff but I have to assume I have some damage. List of what could be toast, gears, bearings, seals, zip locker? Oh yea they also forgot to tighten the rear caliper after doing the brakes and one bolt fell out and the other loosened up enough after 50 miles to allow the caliper to swing onto the rotor.
I'm super pissed at the moment

Hey it was the cheapest shop you could find. Right? I think you said it's not near you. Get what you pay for or make them do right for what you paid. Don't waste your time on the forum. Head to their front door. Only you can correct scabby shops.
I just found this last night, no chance to talk with them yet.

Then give the shop a call and let them know what happened. I've had issues with globex before and they made an attempt to fix it. That being said this is exactly why I stopped using globex. Lack of attention to detail. Something was missed every time they touched my jeep.
