it's only money-- err, monday.
so, the day has come when i have to take my truck in for service, and of course, the dealership where i bought it is booked till late Thursday, so I am taking it to another dealership in their chain. tonight.
first, the warning lights (at least 5 separate ones) were flickering, (not to be confused with blinking), the battery light would come on and stay on, at random, as well as the word "battery" and "brakes" in the digital display. along with the "check oil" warning that wouldnt go out despite an oil change, and i hadnt had time to get it serviced.
while it's in, i'm going to have the oil changed, and also get the recall service on the ignition done.
it shouldnt cost me anything (aside from the oil change), as the truck is still under bumper-to-bumper warranty. but, i know i'll be lucky to get out of there for under $300, just because that's par for my dealings with the dealer.
