I promptly did an internet search and found an entire set of OEM wheels was $1400. I promptly told him he just lost his dealership the sale with his lie. Needless to say the GM stepped in with mass concessions to save the sale but I made it clear that one more lie and I'm walking.
I don't think I have ever visited a new car dealership that didn't tell lies.

Expect the usual upsell overpriced sales pitches for air filter replacement, cabin filter replacement, battery, sunroof rail lube, many DIY projects for a fraction of the cost. Also, vehicle sales price at Jenkins Hyundai were much higher, especially after undisclosed fees during negotiation, than places like Holler Hyundai.

Sounds like something happened at Jenkins! Is it because everything is going up in price so they have to raise they’re prices to make money, go figure!

Jenkins Hyundai in Ocala always wants to do thousands of dollars of maintenance when I go in for an oil change. I tried Jenkins Hyundai in Fruitland Park and they were much less annoying.

That should be a complementary scheduled maintenance on a Hyundai, so why would you go anyplace other then a dealership and pay money for what you could get for free? Definitely go to Hyundai of Central Florida in Claremont! They are great! The Jenkins Jokers, not so much!

Read your warranty.....if you do not use a Hyundai dealership and get the service intervals on time, you jeopardize the warranty on your vehicle. Hyundai is very strict about this. They do NOT advertise that part about their vehicles.

That would be a violation of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Please post the language you are referring to.
