I’ve never taken my car to the dealer, even when it was new and under warranty. The exception being if I had a warranty item or recall notice. I’ve done everything myself and kept records and receipts.
When my daily was getting up near 200,000 miles I had to take it in to the dealer for a tail light recall (I hate going to the dealer for anything). When I went to pick the car up later that day the Service Advisor asked me who had been taking care of the car (because they had no records on it). He stated that they never see them so well taken care of or drive so nice at that mileage. I wanted to tell him the reason it’s in such nice shape is because I kept it out of dealership hands.
I simply told him I’d been maintaining it all along. I personally think dealers can sometimes do more harm than good.
