Same here except when I took it to the dealer for the engine oil change
and tire rotation at just under 10K and asked them to reset the blinking
Maint Light they refuse to do so unless I did the long list of their
suggested maintenance for $80.00. The rest of the items on the list are
only some inspection activites, so I declined and they did not reset the
light. What bastards. It came on solid after 10K.
Right after the service I was not in my home town and did not have my
manual with me so I did not know how to do the reset myself until I came
upon another dealer and stop by to asked about the situation. The
advisor said there is nothing else to do at 10K other than oil change
and tire rotation ans was surprised that the first dealer did not want
to reset the light so she did it in 30 seconds while I watched.
Now I know better.
