      Well honestly listening to what he's saying in this video, while yes they are honest it's their own screw up. He called the lead technician who said the truck left with the correct amount of oil and it looks like new oil so I'm assuming they did an oil change. The shop left the oil filter loose and caused the loss of oil so all they're doing is fixing their mistake. Honest, yes, but it's not like they're doing a huge favor by fixing a screwed up job.

    I used to sell electronics for a bit down at Radio Shack back in the day. He came in looking for an HDMI cable for his TV and wanted Monster Cable, but asked my opinion. I gave him the run down that basically any cable under 5' would work, and he didn't need to spend huge cash on a high end cable (Digital signal either works or it doesnt - but on runs over 25' is when cable quality comes into play to make sure those 1's and 0's come in strong enough to not turn into a garbled mess). Guy seems super happy with me, I toss him my card, says he will be in touch later about another purchase.
    After the sale I get completely chewed out by my DM who was visiting our store for not pushing the high end stuff on him and letting him walk out spending $15 rather than $100.
    About 3 weeks later he calls me and asks me when Ill be in the store. I tell him and he says he'll see me then. Turns out he was getting ready to get all his team cell phones with PTT for his catering business - not sure if you remember Nextel but we used to sell it there like 2004/2005. He needed a business account with 20 cell lines. I ended up walking out with a massive commission and hitting my annual sales numbers in basically a day. He even came back to pick up some sound systems and a new TV for his living room later on. All things he would call me for before he came into the shop because he felt that I was the only guy who didn't try to fuck him by selling him expensive things he didn't needed. He also sent in some of his friends and business partners to come get their cell contracts with me. I became that guy in "I got a guy". It was a great steady stream of commission income started because I didn't try to make that extra $2 in commission on the Monster Cable. I only did what I would have wanted someone to do to me in that situation.

    I was a heavy tow operator for 25 years, and I would do the same thing for our steady customers. If it was something small that I could fix, I would do it. The customer was happy to have his truck back on the road and I could move onto another call. My boss in the other hand, would flip out. He would tell me not to try and fix it. We get more money towing it. I feel the same way you do. I wanted happy customers and they would continue to call. I got out of the business a few years ago. I still miss it, but at least I know I treated people the way I would want to be treated. Keep up the good work, and be safe out there.

    Honesty is so important with customers. Reminds me of a time with my old car when the indicator was on telling me one of my turn signal lights was out. Went to a shop and was told it'd be $80 to repair/replace, but they didn't have that bulb in stock. Drove to a little parts shop and bought a 2-pack of the bulbs for $5 and the cashier came out to the parking lot with me and showed me where to reach to simply twist it out and twist in the new one. Guess where I started going to any time I needed parts, oil, windshield wipers, anything....

    However...
    If I were in your position, in this specific scenario, I would have brought the manager of that U-Haul location out and showed him the problem before taking any corrective action. Discuss the problem, solution, and options before taking action, that way U-Haul corporately, the franchise holder, and manager are all within the company's guidelines for the repair.
    Great job getting that truck back on the road for the customer though!!

    I recently dove into the world of entrepreneurship myself and I came across a scenario that resembles this. A man wanted my service for his home but couldn’t afford it as he had been on workers comp since he broke both wrists on the job. I offered to do it for him for free because it seemed like he really wanted my service. He hesitated at first but I reassured him that I appreciate the business and enjoy doing work for my community so he accepted. Fast forward about a week…he got 3 of his neighbors to sign up for my service. When you work with honesty and love from your heart you’ll be rewarded in ways untold.
