An interview with Kevin Ferrick, American Petrolum Institute (API) Engine Oil Licensing and Certification System manager. 
 
The American Petroleum Institute's Motor Oil Matters Program has uncovered that 1 in 5 samples of bulk motor oil purchased from the marketplace in each of the last 5 years, have failed to meet API motor oil performance standards!

What this translates to is consumers being victimized as oil change locations are installing the wrong motor oil for their cars -- not to mention there's a misrepresentation of what quality is being poured -- this is causing engine damage and voided vehicle warranties.
