They are pricey when it comes to prices for parts but the 2 times I've been there for service, I've had a great experience.

Edit: next time your this way hit me up

Wow, you spend only $70 to get a card worth $500 in future service?

It sounds almost to good to be true. I've never had bad service from them but I guess I'll find out all the details about it when I stop in.

Almost 100% sure you can't use it for parts, Says future services. I'm just thinking about the 105k service I need to do next spring

I recieved the same email from the Acura dealership in Brooklyn on nostrand ave. Can anyone clarify if this is basically like 500 cash to be used towards any service or it's specific in what u can use it towards. The email says valued at 500 towards future services.

Acura Appreciation Days?

Being my first Acura, I received an email from Acura saying if I spend $69.95 on a routine maintenance package, I receive a $500 gift card good towards future services from them. Is this real life or what? I'm unaware.

I got the same thing in the mail, but really didn't look at it closely. I may have to fish it out of my recycle bin in the garage.

I got the same email yesterday. I posted a thread about it yesterday and no one had heard about it yet. Might need one of us to call or head over to their local dealer and see if they can explain it better. I'm planning on going up there to get a card and oil change but that's not for another week or two

Got the same thing.

Pay $70 for service and get $500 off future services? There's gotta be a catch to it...

Sounds like those phone calls we all get claiming we've won trips to all kinds of exotic destinations in sweepstakes we "might not remember" entering...

called on it today.... you get 15% off on each service, you can save up to $500 over time.... looks way better then what it is.

example. you have a $400 brake service, you will get $60 off. you can do that 7 times (up to $500 in savings)
