They are known as stealerships for a reason. They steal.
I had a Honda stealership change a 3 year to a 5 year between the sales desk and the finance desk.

Plus always lying saying something is broke on your car when there is not like the cv joint cover they said needed replacing at $150 each front wheel. Or the air filter that did not. I had a tire valve replaced as it showed cut and rotate the tires. I checked afterward and found the valve stem was new but the valve core was not screwed in all the way so the air leaked...

I go to a shop that verified the cv joint was fine. The mechanic look of disgust when I told them as if they had heard this before. The air filter I had replaced just a few months before.

The Toyota dealership is calling with cheap deals to try to get customers in to their service center.

A while back I went in for some dealer only work. Sat three hours waiting. Also they told me that I needed brakes.

Took it to the local guys I trust for some work and to do the brakes. They came out and said brakes were fine.

Asked me where I got the idea I needed brakes. When I said dealership they nodded and said it happens a lot.
