Why did the dealers say not to use the Wattstation when it was a Nissan issue?
Why do so many dealers give a hassle to charging a car that was not purchased at that location?
Why such a hassle for AZ cars to get some follow up on losing 3 or more capacity bars in the first year?
And don't even get me started on the Ford dealers and Toyota dealers I have visited.
I will just say I always seem to get ripped off, shoddy work, and a dishonest story about what needs to get done.
Not that independents are that much better. A few are good but it is tough out there for consumers.
BTW my local dealer was very pleasent when I went in for service. So far so good.
The 15K annual service includes a HEPA filter ($85.00 installed) and a brake fluid exchange ($100.00). Noone is forcing you to do it.... but if you want someone to work for you, they generally expect to get paid.
Your other questions use terms like "the dealers" and "so many dealers" without any facts so I cannot address them.
The brake fluid exchange is only for Tier 1 drivers, which from what I can tell isn't that many folks on this forum. They all lay in Tier 2 which states that you only need to change it every 2 years per the owners manual. Why am I being told I need to change it when we both know I don't? That is when I get upset, not before.
