I bought a brand new car about 6 months ago. I obviously shopped around and the dealer that was 3 hours away had the cheapest price, so bought it there.

For my state inspection, I brought it to the closest dealer to my house, because I also wanted them to take a look at something (window problems). During the pre-authorization stage, the service advisor said that because I bought the car from them, they will waive the inspection fee. I asked for clarification. They said they offer their customers lifetime free state inspections.

..........should I tell them it's a mistake? Or just ride this out for however many years it'll take them to correct it?

Just under $60 for inspection plus emissions.

I'm sorry, but 10,000 of ANYTHING on a PS2 would absolutely destroy your framerate. It'd be like playing chess through the mail. ~johnboy1

Nope. At least not by their names nor website.

They found a nail in my tire. Said it'll cost $25 to patch. Boo... Thought I'd get out of here free.

Honestly, now days if a shop offers to patch a tire vs sell you on a new one, I'd keep them around
