Thanks for the reply. Went to pick up my truck, pissed, service “kid” advisor couldn’t even look me in the eyes and tell me I was wrong/mistaken/etc. Just wanted me to sign the receipt and get me out of there, not so much as an apology. Also couldn’t show me on the materials where it stated that wasn’t covered. “Manager” was too chicken shit to come out if his office and face me, sent that poor kid back out like a deer in the headlights. I won’t be using that dealership ever again.

I'd call tfs and ask for a cancel quote tomorrow. Seems a little expensive for what you actually got.

Recently bought the Toyota Care Plus service extension starting at 30k miles for $399. "2 major services covered" (30k & 45k) screams the pamphlet they sell it with. Dropped my truck off today for 30k mile service, within an hour I am sent the video telling me how everything on my truck still looks brand new, brakes are great, tires are great, etc....BUT they need to do a power steering flush & brake fluid flush because the liquid is SO DIRTY....and want $400 for said flushes. Dealership still can't tell me what they did on this "major" service that they don't normally do that was so much more expensive (again according to the pamphlet they sold the coverage with), I have the TRD airbox with perm filter so they aren't even doing that, if they tell me it's the cabin air filters I'm probably going to throw something through the service bay window.

Is it unreasonable to think those things would be covered? There are literally NO EXCLUSIONS on the paperwork.

Dealership "flushes" of coolant & transmissions are unneeded and are nothing more than easy profit makers. Brake fluid does need to be changed/flushed every couple of years for optimum protection of the braking system but NOT at the prices you were quoted.

Right now I have the wife's Acura at the dealership for a recall and its laughable what additional service the dealership says is needed.

Did I mention her Acura has 4k miles on it? That's 4,000 miles but because dealer service departments do what they do they tried to scam her with unneeded service.
