The Honda service contracts are a pain to work with… whe she wants an oil change, etc she has to ask for exactly the right service otherwise it won’t get applied. Sounds like they loaded her with every upsell they could think of and then she financed it, I’m guessing for 84 months?

She got screwed. Only way I’ll buy a new car these days is directly off the delivery truck: no dealer tint, add ons, no extra anything.

Yes, 84 months. I assume this means she needs to bring in her car to a Honda dealership for servicing/maintenance (didn’t realize there was a difference between these two). I’m betting she’s not aware of this. Thanks for bringing it to my attention

Yep, and to get the value out of the service contract, she’ll need to make them aware of the contract. Don’t assume they’ll figure it out on their own and apply it correctly.

Good to know. I’ll be sure to make her aware of this!
