You bring your car to a dealer expect them to overcharge you and recommend service you don't need like changing your brake fluid lol thats a new one!

About 20 years ago I overheard the owner of a Ford Dealership in Virginia speaking to his service manager on the telephone(land line ,of course).He was a director of a bank that i worked for. He ranted that the average service billing averaged less than $100 per transaction and threatened the SM with summary execution if that performance was repeated in following months. I would be glad to hear from Dealers and/or SMs commenting on their current practices. Bet I don,t. |
