Not too overpriced, call around and find another dealer for comparison.

30K for me was nearly 300 and closer to 400 for other members

15K mile service? What is that?

Just do an oil change & rotate your tires & you'll be fine. Dealer services are a waste of $$ & are just dealer profit. Only 2 are important 60K miles & 100K miles. Both of which would be ALOT cheaper at somewhere other then the dealer. IMHO

Wow. Thanks. I feel better now. I thought I was taking it in the shorts for paying $151 for the 15K service (but they did replace the windsheild wiper blades).

You could get you tires rotated for under $40 bucks at a local tire place, and a $25 oil change at the quickie lube.

OR do it your self, and save about a $180. I've got my 22.5K coming up and I think it'll be done in my driveway.

Wow I recently got quoted $109 for the 15K service and wasn't sure about that price. And it includes all kinds of good stuff that isn't included in the regular schedule.

I already changed the wiper blades, so I guess I will need just the oil change. Tire rotation and balancing is $16 @ Costco.


The parking brake adjustment will be done under warranty?
