Recommended/Required warranty maintenance
#21
The idea of the dealer trying to sell me things I do not need came true when they told me i needed a four wheel alignment ($268) and a cabin air filter ($152) at 21,000 miles. I did NOT need the alignment and i purchased a cabin air filter for $11 at a local auto parts national chain.
You still have to A) know what you're supposed to be getting and B) go to a mechanic you trust.

My local stealership charges $70 for an alignment and $43 for the cabin filter. I had to laugh when the service manager (who should know better) came in to the waiting room and asked if I wanted the cabin filter changed for $43. I told him "Ernie (the parts guy) will sell me that filter for $12 and it takes two minutes to change. What do you think I want?"
