The service department doesn't make the money for the dealership, selling cars does. The mechanics probably arent making $30-40 an hour probably more like $20 depending on location. When a warranty job over $1000 gets submitted we MUST get approval from tech-line and our district rep before repair, even if its a rod sticking out of the block and you know it needs an engine. This can take days and its a headache for the techs too. I personally have no issue doing any warranty job as long as the owner has done their maintenance, sometimes even if they haven't Mitsubishi will still cover it. They're fairly lenient.
Please keep calm and appreciate your service department, they're not trying to take advantage of you. they're most likely the ones being taken advantage of.
Fleet vehicles aren't supposed to have warranty? Thanks for the heads up. If thats the case we'll be selling all our cars now that I know that.
I realize that Mitsubishi pays the dealership for warranty work. I have known that for many moons....
I'm in Canada? The Canadian dollar is worth less than the 'merican. So yeah, cost's of everything aren't going to be the same here as they are there. No Tech would work in this province for under $30/hr. (unless they owed a ton of pecker pension and were working under the table) Min wage here is going up to $15/hr in a few months.
The service department at our Mitsubishi Dealership leaves much to be desired. I dread dealing with them. They are are glorified secretaries. I had an issue with a new nissan and it was a totally different experience. It was a good one that was not frustrating at all.
For cvt service I just pour some old type F atf I found on the shelf in it. It works don't it?
The car was fixed over a month ago.
