Question:

56. Al Bundy drives his car to the Mr. Walletwrench Service Station to get the oil changed. He drives the car into the garage, fumbles around in the back seat to get a newspaper, and opens the door to get out. He does not realize that the car has been hoisted ten feet into the air to facilitate the oil change; he steps into mid-air, falls to the ground, and is injured. He sues the station for negligence in hoisting the car with him in it. Mr. Walletwrench defends on contributory negligence grounds. (The jurisdiction applies this doctrine.) Who wins?
