Dealer charges $100 per visit under factory warranty?

I heard that the dealers charge $100 per visit, even if it's something covered under the factory 2/24k warranty. Can anyone confirm or deny the truth to this?

Where did you hear that. The dealer does not charge any thing while the car is under its basic warranty. The smart extended warranty (service agreement) does have a $100 deductable but that is after the basic warranty expires.

The $100 deductible applies to the extended warranty.

My short circuited power plug was repaired. Blown fuse replaced.
And, ANT BEE was bathed!
All NO CHARGE (under warranty) at smart center of Cherry Hill.
I didn't even have to make an appointment. Now that's service!
