And then you have to follow up see if they actually done what they was supposed to. I find that 1/3 dealerships can’t even change the oil correctly. They overfill. How many actually pull dipstick and check after service? I bet less than 20%. So IMO 80% have no clue what to say no on or even know it they done what they was supposed to.
