Dealer charges for filters
- Thread starter erhayes
- Start date
Looking at a dealer north of me I see on their 25K service that only item different from 20K service is changing the cabin filter... for an additional $86.95..yikes
That is where I bought my CX-5 and the entire experience left a very bad taste in my mouth on multiple levels. I will never purchase or have a car serviced again at any dealership owned by the Tapley Auto Family. It's hard to understate the number of questionable busine$$ practices I've witnessed there. Charging $87 more to replace the cabin air filter pales compared to what I've seen. Fortunately, they recently lost their Jeep/Chrysler franchise license.
Both http://www.mazdaparts.org/mazda-3-airfilter-skyactic.html and http://www.quirkparts.com/oe-mazda/pe07133a0a list the MSRP as 20 dollars, so the actual price is probably going to depend on your dealer. A quick call and you could find out.

Dealership rip offs...
And the above isn't the only way dealerships rip you off. I try to stay away from dealerships at all costs... that is unless it's a repair or service that's covered by my 3 year, 36,000 mile factory guarantee or government recall, then in the dealership shop it goes. I've learned the hard way how they nickle and dime you to death.
