[QUOTE="jcthorne, post: 14393363, member: 41108"] This part is just completely untrue today. Dealers are paid LESS than market rate, LESS hours than required to do warranty work. The mfgs WANT dealers to decline warranty work whenever possible....and they do. They DO NOT make money on warranty work, don't even break even. The dealers also have no say in what is covered and what is not. They provide NO service the OEM does not specify and pay for. If the OEM disappears or goes bankrupt, there is no further service for the car. The dealer is under NO obligation under the warranty terms. These dealer franchises long ago became profit centers for middle men that provide NOTHING to the end consumer that the OEM cannot provide better and more efficiently. The dealer network is the biggest downfall killing the likes of Lincoln. Ford would dearly love to rid themselves of this burden and do it right too. The protectionist laws that keep this small group of business owners well paid needs to end. [/QUOTE]
