    I think the service writer was rather new to the job at that time.

    Hey, their salesman insisted that Trim Two Prius only had black interior. My tan interior trim two Prius begs to differ.

    My Sonic came with 2 oil changes from the dealer. On the second one, they over filled it by a whole quart. I figure it's better for the car for me to do the basics myself.
