Dealerships asking me to pay more?
My car stopped working while it was parked outside when it was -40c outside. Tried to jumpstart it, but to no avail. So I called roadside assistance to get it towed after 2 days off my driveway to the dealership. I was thinking it should be covered by warranty.
Dealership called me and said the problem was totally dead and needs to be replaced, but since its not covered by warranty anymore it will cost me $400+taxes. So I said ok, just to get it over with since I need the car. The next day, they called me that the battery was in St. Albert and they had to pick it up there from Edmonton, which is under an hour to an hour drive max, and told me that its now $500 instead of $400.
Are they trying to rip me off? I dont really want to pay extra 100 since I feel like I already got ripped off on the $400 initial price.
Car is a 2018 chevrolet cruze diesel. Its a lease that ends in Nov. 2022 with about 44k kms.
