I'm on a regularly scheduled 'visit' with the local Jeep dealership. I always buy a package of three oil changes, tire rotations and inspections at a reduced rate rather than paying for them individually. I don't put too many miles on my Renegade annually, so I take it in every six months for this service. Naturally, the dealership is pretty good at sending me reminders. It's worked out pretty well to date, although I still cringe when the 'check engine' light comes on - Ugh! That puts me squarely in the hands of the service advisor to get the problem figured out and to coordinate with my extended warranty company to get the repair paid for, as applicable. Some things are covered and some things are not. When I first bought my 'used' Renegade, I began with one service advisor who was very attentive and watched out for my best interests very well. I had that warm comfortable feeling in my tummy - If you know what I mean. Naturally he left for greener pastures, or whatever, and I've had several advisors since. That warm comfortable feeling has not returned. Part of that is my own fault. When I visit the dealership, I go to whichever service advisor is available rather than forming a relationship with just one and dealing with them each time. That is going to change, starting with my next visit. I want someone who knows my vehicle, my history and, most importantly, how to deal with my insurance company should the occasion arise again.

Bet your 'service advisor' doesn't look like her...

Just a friendly reminder, a service advisor is not an advisor, he or she is a salesperson. Do not think they have your best interests at heart. They earn commission based on the service work they sell you. While they may come across as knowledgeable and concerned about your car's well-being, this is often part of their sales pitch. Not the place to experience "that warm comfortable feeling". Rather than relying on a service advisor, it's better to establish a relationship with a mechanic whose work has impressed you. Look for someone capable of handling complex jobs rather than oil changes which are typically assigned to the most inexperienced mechanics. Then, offer them a cash side job to supplement their income. Only a few jobs require a service bay at a dealership, and they can do a lot right in your driveway. My mechanic only uses OEM parts, which is a good first sign they know their shit. He tells me what parts to buy for more complicated jobs, usually available at a discount on the dealership's online parts website. Then again, what do I know? Lastly, If you know the hot mechanic in the meme, I'd ask her if she works on Jeeps. She seems to have no problem getting down and dirty.

I applaud women that have a toolbox and are handy. A smart girl scans the motor when adding some wiper fluid. The same goes for tire pressure and so forth. Howling at the moon and mal ad osteo.
