Is an auto care facility that changed oil in my car responsible for damages to engine because they failed to put oil cap on?

Dear Ms. Adams: There is potential liability with a situation like this, but you would have to prove causation. This means you would have the burden of proving that the auto care facility was negligent in failing to place the cap in its proper position AND that the facility's negligence caused your engine damage. You should also be taking photos and documenting the situation. A good next step would be to politely approach the facility and ask them to fix the damage they caused. If they deny that it was their fault, you should seek legal representation. This response does not form an attorney-client relationship, nor should it replace a full consultation with an attorney.
