If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?

I took my car to the dealership for an oil change last week. I took it there, because i know how mechanics play, to keep you coming back making them rich. I thought the dealership would be better since they sell the cars you make, and depend on their reputation for repeat customers. Well, i notice the my engine check light keeps coming on. It never did that until the oil change. I talk to the service guy, and he stated it could be anything. Come in for a diagnostic test. He said it will cost 50 bucks. I told him, no way i'm paying that since i think you are the casue of the problem. Well, he said that because my car is under 60k miles that its still under warranty and that the diagnostice test would be free. What if the diagnostice test find something, do i still pay to get my light back to the way it was? Should i pay? What would you do?If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?Sometime a check engine light can come because a cap or lid on something isn't closed tight enough... even if you leave your gas cap too loose the light will come on. Go get the scan if they tell you do lots of work... get a second %26amp; third opinion. and don't tell the second and third people that anything is wrong, just tell them you want to check up on your car. then you'll see if they are telling the truth. If they are lying call your local news station to investigate and teach those jerks a lesson.If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?lite is unrelated to oil change....get scan...[which is free at any auto parts store by the way] see whats off...the test should reset it...dont %26quot;go off%26quot; until u see whats wrong...gd luk ,,,those prick dealers getting 50 to 100 for a test burns me up...If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?It's highly unlikely that the mechanic did anything to your car during the oil change that would cause the check engine light to come on and off periodically.



The check engine light comes on if there is an emissions related problem. The emissions are under warranty. You should take the car in and have it fixed. Since it's under warranty, they'll do it for free.If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?Get the diagnostics done. Its very possible that the %26quot;check engine%26quot; light and the oil change are completely coincidental. Its possible that whatever is causing the check engine light to come on will also be under warranty.If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?It`s a machine and parts do wear out. It has nothing to do with the oil change . If they scan it and find something wrong , it may or may not be under warranty. Costs nothing to have it checked out , then you decide if you want it fixed.If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?I'm not taking the side of the dealer here, but you may just be the victim of bad timing. If the diagnostic is covered under warranty, let them do it. The fix may just be covered under under warranty, too. If the problem is caused by something strange, I might be a little skeptical.If you get an oil change, and you notice something different about your car, what recourse do you have?Sounds like you car is still under warranty so take back for a dealer fix. If you take anywhere else you may void warranty. If you have problems with that dealer then take to another or call the manufacture warranty rep. to arbitrate your problem.
