That is just a way of extracting a few more bucks from you. I was charged
$1.70 for it and nothing was removed from the car. Turns out, the billing
software is programmed to add a certain percentage on every bill. Getting
rid of hazardous waste is just part of the cost of doing business and
should be included in the shop rate or parts markup.

I wrote a letter to the dealer and complained. They sent me a coupon for a
free oil change. Big deal. Chances are they will also lose selling me my
next car because they ****ed me off.
