I dropped off my car at the dealership for a brake fluid flush since its been 2 years. The service indicator also stated that I needed a "Vehicle Check".

The VC service was an additional cost of $110 and I gave the OK since they stated if anything was found that my CPO would cover any repair cost.

My questions is, what is difference between the vehicle check and 10 point inspection that's performed for free whenever I bring the car in? it just seems like the same thing..

I guess next time I'll just reset the light and save my money..

Quite certain it's BS. Just visual checks of seals, brakes, fluids, etc which should be done anyway.

I'm pretty sure it's just a multipoint inspection. They look at all the regular stuff under the hood. Then they raise the vehicle and check underneath the vehicle as well.

The problem with this is that it still misses a lot of stuff. One time, they said everything was fine. I had to point out my rear wheels were misaligned by quite a bit and caused instability when i drive, and my rear rotors were warped.

So I don't really buy into VC service. Most of the stuff you can do yourself. The rest you can probably feel if something's wrong and figure it out from there. If you're still CPO, then just let them figure it out.

man, I should of declined on the service...

that a nice dinner for me and my wife, quite steep at $110 bucks.

lesson learned, reset VC light before heading into the dealer.

They also grease certain points on the car such as door hinges, etc.

Not worth the money but I have a service inclusive pack so it's free. Not sure that I'll pay for it once this expires...
