When i first brought in my car for service, I asked about the 5 bucks. Lady said my insurance does not cover loaner gas so I pay 5 bux...whatever 5 bux for all the gas in the tank sounds good to me, its not like I go get serviced every week.
That's wierd. Never heard of this. I had my 7500 mile service done (it was free, nice of them ), alignment checked, sunroof oiled down (TSB), etc. and they didn't charge for the car.
I've never been charged, but I've been told it was $5. My service reps have always been really nice and normally say "I won't charge you for the loaner."
