Just got back from the local Chevy dealer where they charged $41.18 for an air filter - $6.30 of that was labor. I asked the dealer about it and he said that they are $25 in the parts store and inflation has raised the price of everything.
I went to the parts store - it is $17.79 and it probably costs the dealer even less. A K & N reusable lifetime warranty air filter was $48 and change.
Its no surprise that Chevy needs bailouts when dealers are over charging customers for things like air filters.
I called the dealer back and told him what I found out - he offered a free oil change next time around. Which does more than make up for the overcharge, but I would rather see them just not overcharge every single customer they get.
