It's just amazing how much a dealer can find that needs replacing, when somone other than the owner is paying the bill - even non existent "worm gears" at an incridible $3k !!! It's easy. Mr. average Joe Schmuck walks in - in a business suit. Suddenly, the worm gears, the muffler bearings and the hydroginator valve, all need to be replaced - total cost $4,273.15 ! Boy, just as well you bought that extra warranty package Mr. Schmuck. What a scam!! Not only does the dealer get away with highway robbery, but Mr. Schmuck is convinced that the extra money he paid for the "long term warranty" was well worth while, and he'll do it again with the next vehicle he buys!!
