My brother in law just ordered an E320 2005 with AMG package, he told me yesterday that MB is no longer accomodating its customers with the free maintenance :o for 4yrs/50k like BMW does.
Is this also true with the BMW for the future? :( |
i happened to find out this info the same day mbusa faxes to all the dealers. that's one of the reasons why i didn't get a clk :whistle:. i asked the same question to bmw but the sales advisor told me it won't happen for bmw. but you have to understand, he is a sales advisor and trying to sell me a car on that day :devil:. if eventually bmw change the game plan, not much we can do :(.

Well, I love BMW but if BMW decides not to have the free maintenance they will probalbly loose customers. I know many of the E60 owners are leasing for the term of the maintenance and trading their cars in and this also goes for the other BMW models.

No one would have questioned a $1500-2000 price increase, but the negative publicity will cost them customers :wow: |
The same changes aside from MB is also taking effect for new Audi's. Apparently, they have had so much service that it's no profitable anymore. Either MB and AUdi drivers are winers or BMW just made a better business move.

mb cut this program simply because daimler chrysler is losing big money on mitsubishi. they have to do whatever they can to stop the bleed.

Chrysler owned a major portion of Mits. when it was bought by the Germans. Mits, came with Chrysler.
