It's a shame if that is the case. Perhaps due to Trump's tariff war which is making a mess of Canad's auto industry. Why make it easier for the USA to sell their American automobiles ? Dropping the tax would have given a boost to auto sales in Canada. I know we are fans of Corvette but it's...

Actually to me this seemed like an extended amount of time to service ? I arrived at 8 or 9am and the car was not ready till later in the afternoon . This was not 3 or 4 hours and done thing. Oil change , air filter, the transmission service and a full once over with fluid top ups. Trust me no...

By the way my dog / 5 month old male English Bulldog is named Maximus .

Ok you got me on that one. Talk about confusing ? I understand both measurements like most Canadians but it must be confusing to be an American trying to figure that one out . Anyway my original quote called for ten bottles but the final count from the mechanic was 12 bottles of fluid which...

I was in the United States . They live in another world called quarts and gallons.

YIKES !

Car is a 2022 but was delivered in 2021. The Dealer in the US keyed it up as a 3 year service. I could have waited till I arrived home but that would have been 6 to 8,000 KMs of milage in a short period of time. San Francisco to Halifax and places in between. Plus in my area in two years I might...

Thank-you JCWP, my fault since I do know better. Litres and quarts are not exactly equals in volume. I was charged for 12 quarts. I live in Canada but this service was done in the USA.

Maximus74 " In total 10 litres of oil was put in the transmission." When mine was done the mechanic put in 12 litres . After reading this it must of been the standard !0 litres plus the extra 2 litres for track use ? I do remember the service representative mentioning to me that the car took 2...

I’m not sure why people here believe by me posting that bill that I was complaining about my bill ? I merely showed people here what a 72,000 km or 3 years ( whatever comes first ) maintenance bill can look like. It’s on page 294 and page 295 of the 2022 Corvette Owners manual. Some people here...

You mean to say a Corvette Dealership would actually look you in the face, fudge your bill and lie to a Corvette owner ? :) Say it ain't so ! lol

Tyres are not part of a GM maintenance agreement. Where do you suggest I call in San Jose when you are already standing in the largest Corvette Dealership in San Jose ? Also if I remember correctly getting into a Corvette Dealership for service was generally a one to two week wait. I got the...

" Come on man, you didn't question this... " " The Service Department ran Train on you ... " Normally people or service departments don't run Train on me and what good is questioning this when you are on the other side of North America . I'm from Halifax and not San Jose where their GM...

Read it and weap. Two things to notice, that's in US $$ and they added sales tax plus a surcharge to use VISA after the total you see here. Also when you think of it. Was I overcharged ? I have no way of knowing . With the pre paid agreement that's no longer my issue.

Thank-you LeDon and Mr. Corvette. I purchased the 72 month 80,000 KM $100 deductible GM warranty and a 72 month 60,000 KM pre paid maintenance agreement. I did complete previous to this the 72,000 KM or 3 year ( whatever comes first ) transmission fluid change when the air filter , trans filter...
