Do this sound legit? by oldfarmer50

Just got a coupon from my Chrysler dealer where if I purchased a used car in 2002. It says that if I pay $30 for an initial oil change they will give me 3 free ones. I read all the fine print and as near as I can tell the only catch is that I must have the 3 free oil changes within a year (not a problem since I am a 3000 mile changer).
 
The offer sounds a little too good to be true. Any opinions?

Sounds like an ok way to support your oil change hobby, so long as they don't continue to "find" stuff wrong with your rig every time you take it in for the oil change.
 
And also assuming that the dealer isn't going to fold up shop in the next year. There are more reports of long time dealers folding showing up around the boards.
 
But since most dealer oil changes are $30 or more anyway, if you just get two for one, you're still ahead.

I think it's legit, my dealer offers every other oil change for free as long as you bought the car there.
 
I'm sure they will look for other stuff, but mostly they just want you to be in the routine of going there so that when you hit 30k, 60k, or repair time, they'll make that more profitable sale.

"...when you hit 30K, 60K..."
 
LOL. This is a 12 year old Chrysler that's closer to 120K. I'm sure they'll find plenty they'd like to fix. As long as they don't "require" me to fix things to get my free oil it'll be OK.
 
Thanks

Midwest credit unions pledge $10 billion in auto loans to help GM
 
Jamie LaReau
 
Automotive News | December 10, 2008 - 10:49 am EST
 
A group of credit unions from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois is pledging $10 billion in low-cost auto financing to its more than 12 million members for the purchase of General Motors vehicles.
 
It also is working with GM to offer a price discount to members.
 
The plan is called Invest in America, according to a news release posted on the Michigan Credit Union League’s Web site. The release said the credit union league is talking to Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler LLC about similar programs.
 
“This new arrangement with Midwest credit unions creates a tremendous value for GM and for thousands of credit union members,” said Mark LaNeve, GM vice president of vehicle sales, service and marketing, in the release. “We appreciate the credit unions’ promotional support and are pleased to make this offer.”
 
The program started Monday and will run through June 30. It offers eligible vehicles at a price discount to credit union members and their households. Members who buy cars under the program also are eligible for $250 in bonus cash until Jan. 5.
 
The program will be tested in the four states, possibly going nationwide early next year, the release said.
 
GM’s U.S. vehicle sales plunged 21.9 percent through November compared with the same 11-month period of 2007, according to the Automotive News data center. Tight credit markets -- and losses at GM’s affiliated finance arm GMAC -- have played a role in choking off retail sales this year.
 
The credit union initiative could help GM dealers find new financing sources for customers.
 
“Credit unions have a long history of helping hard-working Americans in troubled times,” said Daniel Mica, CEO of the Credit Union National Association.
 
Credit union members can find details on the discounts at love my credit unionand obtain an authorization number to take to any GM dealership.
 
The price discount is on purchases of eligible new Buick, Cadillac, Hummer, Saab, Chevrolet, GMC, Saturn and Pontiac vehicles.

That's not too far from me, then again it isn't exactly close, either.

Even if it was close, it'd still take an hour to negotiate the Dulles traffic to get there.
