For $1,400.00 I hope your geting kissed for that price.

I never seen that kind of bill for 30k.
I would call ALL the GM dealer's in your area to see what they charge.
I think you should ask them to break it down to
1.fluid cost.
2.labor cost
2b.flate rate hours involved.
2ba.parts involved and cost.
3.then tell them no wonder people go to monkey Fing wrench lube, what ever the hell it's called.
4.Your too close to the island of Cailfornia.
Move to the east coast. way cheaper>

Thanks all, thats what I thought. I was just going to be nice and let them do the oil and lube with a rotation because they are going to do some warranty work 4k after it ran out
But that is when he sprung the major service at "about $1400 on me. I will just tell him to check the CV's and axles as well as the normal stuff any quickee lube does and send me home.
I have been out of touch for quite a while here but I was relieved to see nothing has changed keep up the good work.

I spent the $525.00--coupon special--a couple years ago.

I did mine myself. If I were interested in getting free parts or service, then maybe I would consider having the dealership do some routine service. But 1.4k is a little on the steep side. Might as well pay me to do it so I can buy the drty winch.

I had the same service and paid about $800 at the dealer. Total rip-off.

30K one

I'd say $1,400 is a good value for checking/adding axle fluid, rotating tires, and replacing the fuel and air filters. I paid $20k for someone to rotate my tires alone once. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Can I please rotate your tires for you next time </div></BLOCKQUOTE>


Yeah.

Yes, but I'll no longer pay more than $15K for a tire rotation.

Oh , didnt know that. Never heard of such a thing. Thought all fuel filters were still on the frame.

Nah, Dodge has been putting the fuel filter in the tanks of their trucks since the 2nd gen Ram came out in 94. Believe me, it was a royal pain in the rump to replace it when it went on my Ram. Ugh.........

Dropped it off on my way to airport they replaced the Nav (2nd time) fixed a leak in the firewall (I didnt get gromets all the way back on when installing airhorns) put a new rear wiper arm and blade. All under warrenty even though it has almost 41k on it
Changed oil, rotated tires, did most of the stuff on the list that the $1400 guy rattled off. they didnt change the fluids just checked and topped off Checked axles and CV’s etc. total bill with tax was $200
I didnt even buy it at this dealer, but my next one will be from them.
