When I read the subject line, I knew exactly what this thread was about.
Every time I see "...runs great but could use a good lubrication", I ignore the ad.
The phrase makes no sense.
Also, when the USAF moved me to Central PA 25 years ago (I stayed here after I retired because Gettysburg is close to York; but don't tell my wife), that is when I first heard "...that part needs fixed...". This is the only place I have heard this type of grammar, and I hear it a lot.
