Precision Tune
Canister Oil Filiter Scam, Rip-Off

I went to Precision Tune in both Pelham, AL 96 Hilltop Rd and in Alabaster, AL Both were offering a cheap oil change... One for $12.99 and the other for $19.99 At both places I was advised that the KIA Sedona has a "special" canister oil filter (which is true) and that there would be an additional upcharge of $13.00 for the oil filter. I refused and took the van elsewhere. I researched the filter on the web and found that it is indeed a canister style filter and all that needs to be replaced in the inside filter, average price $5.99, which is cheaper than a regular oil filter. I am not sure what they were trying to sell me, unless it was to replace the entire canister, which is not needed. I went down the road to a Goodyear that was offering an oil change and tire rotation for $19.95 and they did the oil change for the advertised price and never said anything about the "special" oil filter. I asked them about this and they told me that in order for these places to offer a cheap oil change they had to find other things to bring in money to offset the loss on the oil change. This appears to be a scam from Precision Tune. Be wary of their cheap oil changes.
