They said just bring it in, so I did.
After all was said and done, I received the paperwork on the service and noticed that it showed oil change (NO FILTER).
The great part was, the service was FREE.
But what the hell, no oil filter.
This service seems almost pointless, without a new filter.
Anyone else notice this?

You never need to change the oil until the little wrench shows up on your dash. If you drive highways mostly, your oil will stay cleaner longer. The oil they put in when they build your car has special stuff in it that helps keep the seals tight, etc. and they should not have changed it. But done is done. Next time let the oil expire before you get it changed.
