I don't find it comfortable when the dealer doesn't even know their own cars have what specifications. It also shows they don't bother with even looking at your car first before making suggestions. Would you like a dealer telling you for car is in need of fix without even troubling themselves with checking it first?

Everytime I recall this incident I remember the Toyota commericals here in Canada saying that they know their cars best. Makes me feel even more disgusted .

oh yeah i get it now, sorry about the post earlier. i guess the dealer told you the list is what your car needs. yeah that's so plain BS. if that's the case, you did it right, not bringing it back to the dealer. let alone leave it there for some "maintenance" BS.

my civic before used to be stealership maintained (sorry, meant dealership). until 2005, when i decided the overpriced service which my car didnt really need, aint worth it. up until 16 years after (2012), i sold it in perfect shape.

now i dont know if i'll have my 10k PMS service for my yaris with the stealership, because we have had horror stories here in the philippines with stealing and swapping of parts--including the ECU. the stories got worse since 2009, after having great storms and floods almost everywhere bring damage to a lot of cars--again, let alone overpriced service which the car doesnt really need.
