Oil Change and fuel filter

Went in to get a oil change and fuel filter change for my diesel. The oil change was fine as far as I can tell. But the fuel filter change was botched because they used some cheap fuel filter. The truck has a sensor that tells how much life is left in the fuel filter. Before I got 300 miles down the road the sensor was telling me to change the fuel filter. I change these filters most often before the sensors tell me to and this was the first time I have seen this happen. So if I ever use them again I will take my own filter and not use theirs.
