Hey all! Just wanted to ask folks across the USA what their local Ford dealer charges for an oil change—the package is sometimes called “The Works.” I was shocked by how much my local Ford dealer is now charging for this.
When I first bought my 2013 S197 Mustang GT in 2012 I recall it being 6 or 7 quarts for $39.99 (perhaps this was a promotional price but I always had a coupon). By the time I bought my new S550 Mustang GT w/performance pack a few years later, it took about 8 quarts, and the price ran about $69.99 for “The Works.” I still found this to be a fair price.
Well, today I went to the same local Ford dealership I’ve been going to for more than a decade for an oil change and I was charged $140 for 8 quarts of Motorcraft semi-synthetic and a Motorcraft oil filter. I asked why the price was double and I was told simply “new management.” Fortunately I had enough Ford Pass points to get the oil change for free today but I won’t be going back.
Curious of your experiences…
