Re: Service Scams

I had a letter and then a follow up phone call from Mitsubishi last week saying my 380 was due for a service because it was 6 months since the last one. So I booked it in at Jax and they rang the lease company to get authorisation for the service but the lease mob said it's not due until 120,000 (currently at 108xxx), so they wouldn't authorise it since it's not required just yet. So I just got a wheel alignment instead. oh, and Mitsubishi wanted $240 for the (minor) service - really a glorified oil change. Jax would've only charged $130. I don't see how 2 workshops doing the same thing can be so far apart in price.
