It was just an oversight on the mechanic, they are busy in those big shops. The local dealer works on my tractor, but you ought to see all the tractors assigned to each man while your there, my local Case IH dealer has a big white board that takes up most of one wall in the service dept office, on it is the names of their mechanics and underneith their name is a list of machines assigned to them for various repairs, I was there yesterday dropping off one of our tractors, and the fellow assigned to it has about 15 tractors on the board.

So it was just an oversight, and no doubt a very expensive one, but all shops carry insurance just for these occasions, and I would hope they wouldn't get rid of a good worker just because of 1 mistake. There could be a variety of reasons why it got missed, perhaps he got distracted somehow, and then forgot, who knows what it was, but bottom line is insurance will cover what happened here.
