Replying to: Car_man (Feb 09, 2009 4:39 am) I neglected our MF: 0.00135. The dealer is offering a $1000 "tiers for life program" on the vehicle on the condition that it is serviced with them. This looks tempting as the IS250 tires have a < 20K life. Any thoughts on these programs? It is clear the big benefit of the dealer is keeping you coming to him. The risk for the consumer is moving away from the area. The program also does not transfer with a new owner.

Replying to: DTOM (Feb 09, 2009 5:51 am) Are you saying that the dealer is offering you free tires for life if you have all of your service performed there. That's a great deal if if only involves getting oil changes...however if it forces you to have all sorts of other worthless service done on your leased vehicle (which I suspect it does) then I would probably pass if I was offered it.

Replying to: Car_man (Feb 10, 2009 3:00 am) It just specified that you have your manufacture's recommend services as specified in the manual carried out at the appropriate intervals with them. I asked the dealer why they sell this package: 1) It can be hard to sell a IS250 with the tire life. 2) It retains customers with that particular dealership. He want my service business and for me to purchase my next car from him. I'm going to ask for a copy of the contract one would sign, not just the pamphlet to see if there are some gotchas in there. What if I move out of state etc.

Replying to: DTOM (Feb 10, 2009 7:40 am) It was about $900 to replace them at Discount Tire. If you are going to lease the car figure one tire change, maybe two. $1000 for the tire plan, plus the requirement to do all regular maintenance at the dealer sounds like a major rip off. |
