Get Your Complimentary Oil Change Offer from Mitsubishi Motors!

Anyone else get this email?

Too bad I change my own oil and don't trust the stealership.

Hah, my dealer isn't so bad... they are just trying to generate some revenue guys. 3 of the 5 in the Oregon area have shut down... if the next two shut down, it's going to suck getting parts.

Oh man!!! I feel so weak cuz' I go to the dealership for my oil changes since they are free for me every time. (and yes they use the correct Mobil 1 oil that goes for for the Evo). I hate all the Mitsubishi dealerships greatly too, but they give me free oil changes for the life of the car......So how can I refuse.?..

Of course, Oil changes are close to free anyway if you do it yourself.

On another note, I wouldn't risk going to a dealership and having them discover any mods on my car that would void any type of agreement or warrenty

I have a great dealer near me but an oil change is about as hard as brushing my teeth. Not to mention they'll tell me that the warranty is voided (duh).

I don't know what dealerships you guys go to or what rumors you listen to but a dealership CANNOT flag your car for finding a "mod" that they arn't working on. In other words if you have an aftermarket exhaust on your car and you go in to have them look at when your windshield squirters arn't working they can not flag your car for that. It has nothing to do with what your car is being written up for.

I've dealt with a few differnt dealerships, both on the west coast and east, and it's the same anywhere I go. Even though I do my own oil changes anyway I wouldn't mind a free one every now and again since it will save me from having to get under my dirty salty cold car once or twice this winter. Haha.

x2. I changed my oil when it was like 10 degrees out and I'll never do that again. What dealership do you go to? I've been told not to go to Nashua Mitsu but I think they're the closest to me.

Westboro Mitsu, Rt 9. Haven't had to go there for anything recently though. haha. But with these 190 mile round trips down to the cape every weekend plus my normal driving I'm going to be changing my oil a lot more often! haha
