Is $1500 for 36-month prepaid maintenance plan reasonable? I am worried I might have been taken advantage of..
I was told by the dealership that
1)Performing recommended service in first three years outside mazda dealership services (any in the area) could be risky for the warranty
2)Prices for service could be between $200 to $500 in the first three years. Filters for eg could cost $60. However I find now that online prices for cabin air filter are ~$30, engine air filter <$20 even if it has to be replaced six times in first three years, comes to $300 tops.
3)There is no cancellation window for this plan, and even if cancelled right after purchase, will be refunded with a $300 deduction. However mazda website states it is cancellable within 30 days for full refund. The dealer hasn't given me any legit paperwork stating terms for this plan so I am afraid if they sold me something other than the mazda approved service plan with a different set of terms and conditions
Any recommendations on what to do? Is the price reasonable or rip off?
