Where I lived there was dealership that offered the free oil changes long as you owned the car if you brought the vehicle there. IF you were clueless about routine preventive maintenance you were the pigeon they were looking for. Come to find out they were not changing the oil, but changing stuff (on the invoice) that didn't need to be done yet gouging the very customers they feed on. I found this out when co-worker asked me to look at her car. Oil hadn't been changed ( I suspected they never changed the oil). But if you looked at the dealership records it had. That dealership also had the some local college football team on the payroll which got dealership and college in hot water with the NCAA. Needless to say he sold out and moved to Az, or Fl. I think to start up his next scam.
IMO bottom line Free not always free in the long run. If her case the engine was knocking and puffing blue smoke.
