I had appointment to take my vehicle in this morning because of a recall. Dealership provides a free loaner if work is going to take longer than 3 hours. This is the first loaner I’ve ever received from a dealership. I mentioned filling it up and she said “not necessary because of the price of gas — just bring it back with basically what you use. It probably doesn’t have much in it.” Last person had all the gauge info turned off to minimal. I switched it on and it said it had 15 miles radius. We live 20 miles away. I put $15 in, a little under 5 gallons, roughly 130 miles radius. Returning the loaner this afternoon, I said “you were right about it not having much gas.”
I can understand the fuel charge if someone doesn’t even have the decency of leaving at least 4-5 gallons, especially since they don’t have to pay for the use of a loaner. |
