Re: MPG drop after dealer service?
Send me a PM if you ever find out how. I have been dying to change that from the dealer I bought it from to the dealer I actually use.

Re: MPG drop after dealer service?
I'm glad I found this thread...because the same thing happened to me recently!
I took my car in for an oil change and went on a road trip recently. The mileage was horrible! I had to try so hard to get it around 45MPG when usually I get 55MPG+
I'm going to change the oil and see if that helps... the invoice from the dealer did not specify what type of oil was used.

Re: MPG drop after dealer service?
OK, an update after the letter to Honda corporate went out, describing my experience with bad and good dealerships. I got a call from Honda, thanking me for the letter. I guess they also forwarded the info to management of both dealerships and started investigating the "bad" one. Their main message was that unless you write/call/inform them, they do not always know what individual dealers in the area do. As far as changing the dealer in the wonder link- it's supposed to happen automatically after you've gone to the new dealer three times.

Way to go!!! ... and thank you for making a difference - one bad dealer at a time.
Now lets pass this message to anyone else reporting a similar experience to yours and maybe one day we'll have enough dealers truly worthy of our business and support.
