I went into the dealership for the 40k mile service which involved some fluid changes, tire rotation and brake wear test. I walked out of there $1300 poorer, after they nickel and dimed me for a bunch of other things that came up during the inspection. I even turned down some of the “suggested services.” I won’t be going back there again. Anyone else get this treatment?

    I’d argue you fucked yourself over. You could have said no to everything except what you wanted them to do.

    You seem to be blaming the dealer for talking you into repairs you didn’t need. Or maybe you really did need and have been putting off.

    I took a vehicle in for a recall. They tallied up $6000 in repair work they wanted to do. I just thanked them and took the list home with me. The van was only worth $3000 at the time.
