Cost for 10,000 Mile/1 year Service?

Anybody that has had this done, can you please let me know how much it was. If you don't mind. We were quoted $200.00 from the dealer.

Thanks,

smartiePrincess

I have contacted four different dealerships, two in Texas, one in Oklahoma and one in Mississippi.

ALL DIFFERENT FEES for the exact same service.

What the hell?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

$ Let us separate you from your money $

Just had my 10,000 miles done for a grand total of $205.-. I was going to change my own oil, yet changed my mind and had them change it but using my oil and filters. I was quoted $175, yet when the final bill came many little items were added- such a getting rid of used rags, etc. They have marvelous and creative ways now of upping bills.
This included replacing warped rotors and the replacement of a new sunshade also under warranty yet. Read your manual; after one year the replacement of parts such as the rotors may not hold up any more. It seemed I made my appointment phone call just in time. BTW I was treated very well at the local dealer, but then why not...I paid for it...
Let me make this perfectly clear...it was $205 plus my cost of paying for the oil and filter.

smart center Portland - $99 for the 10K. Why should it cost more?
