You know it would take all of 15 minutes to unbolt and reseal the SC where it is seeping. It is unfortunate that you have one with this problem but it is not the end of the world and for all the time spent freaking, the problem could have easily been resolved. This really is akin to Jiffy Lube not completely tightening your oil drain plug - do you get hire an attorney to sue and get the guy fired or do you simply climb under the car and tighten the plug? Guess the choice is yours...
