Default Re: Do service departments HATE hybrids?

I got mad at my Honda dealer, and won't go back there, when they wanted to charge me $350 for the 30k service. I asked what that included, and beyond the three air filters, nothing more than an oil change. I had them just do the oil change, purchased the filters myself for $35 and installed them myself. They wanted $115 just to change the cabin filter! I change the oil myself now.

My FORD dealer, when changing the oil didn't change the "O" rings, then said they had to keep the car for the day, because they had to order the "O" rings. I complained to the service manager that they should have had the parts onsite when they knew, a week in advance, that the car was coming in for an oil change. Sheesh.
