Car Forum / Honda Cars / September 2004Maintenance required light
Interesting....My maintenance required light went on today, and I received an email from Honda regarding the 6 month service. The light is total bullshit just to get you into the service area and pay 175 dollars for an oil change and tire rotation.... What do you guys think? It's a 2002 Accord. If you don't know how to do either of those things yourself... you've got much MUCH bigger problems in life. > Interesting....My maintenance required light went on today, and I received > an email from Honda regarding the 6 month service.

Obviously, you're exaggerating because (a) you're about 19 years old, and (b) you hate your dealer. My dealer is competitive with the quick lube places on oil changes and tire rotations. And of course, while *my* dealership mechanic is in there, he glances at the brakes and looks for obvious stuff--just because that's who he is and what he does. > Interesting....My maintenance required light went on today, and I received > an email from Honda regarding the 6 month service.

If your dealer's service compromises only of oil change and tire rotation then its not a service. These two things can be done by any auto repair shop and at much cheaper rate. Plus they will also check all the fluid levels etc. .....Jiffy lube is quite decent in this sense.They charge about $30 for oil change but also check the other fluids. > What do you guys think? > It's a 2002 Accord. > Interesting....My maintenance required light went on today, and I received > an email from Honda regarding the 6 month service.

Have you read your owner's manual about how to reset the light? Bearman  SignatureIf it's got tits, tires, tubes, or transistors, it's trouble. you are probably right.any mechanic can reset the maintenance light in about 5 seconds.all it is will be for him to push a button and wait about a minute.he'll gladly sign your book for about another 5 bucks. > Interesting....My maintenance required light went on today, and I received > an email from Honda regarding the 6 month service.

You can reset the light yourself in about 5 seconds. Scan your owners manual. It's in there. |
