Dodge Caravan Oil Change

At Tire Connection for $33 (88,000 miles)

Looks like the following need work:

Timing cover gasket
oil pan leak
oil sending unit leak

for $850


Now they say the water pump and the transmission pan do not leak. We were below the car and could not see any wet! Did they lie when they told me they were leaking last time?!
