Absolutely agree. Technically, I'm pretty sure I had the problem it was aimed to fix. In my case I felt semi-justified because the dealership charged me an outrageous "Doc Fee" when I bought the car (it was almost $800) that because of the First86 program and Pure Price I couldn't negotiate my way out of it. Also, , they refused to fix a real problem I had (weepy taillights) because I was a few miles out of the 32K warranty when it happened. (At least I tell myself that, and it allows me to sleep at night).

In the end though @Tcoat is right, you all helped pay for this, thank you.

It's sort of like "corporate income tax" and "free shipping". It's all built into the price of the product.
