[QUOTE="Gringo185, post: 16280387, member: 42351"] This is often a common misconception. There can be a big difference between a “dealer recommended service schedule” and the manufacture recommended service schedule. Dealers often recommend heavily bloated maintenance schedules that include coolant and transmission flushes every 30k, injector cleaning every 15k, oil changes every 5k, etc. Meanwhile the actual manufacture maintenance schedule could be as easy as oil change every time prompted by the vehicle (up to a max mileage), air filter every 30k, coolant at 100k, trans flush at 120k, etc. The dealership that I worked at offered a lifetime powertrain warranty with all vehicle sales (new and used) that required that only the manufacture recommended service schedule was followed. They didn’t even require that they do the service. The warranty was valid nation wide. Their selling point was that all your service records in one place makes it easiest for warranty claims, but as long as you have your records and can prove that you have followed the schedule, all issues were covered for a $100 deductible. As with everything, it is important to read the fine print and completely understand what you are buying and agreeing to. [/QUOTE]
