Default Where's the free Oil changes?

When I bought the car I remember them saying, "these are your 3 free oil changes"...i think it was 3. But I was in a hurry and I don't know where they are. Is there somewhere they put them? I looked in my glove box in the black case but I didn't see anything. Does anyone know what it even looks like? 1 paper, 3 papers?

thanks

Just go to your dealer every 5,000 up to 15,000 for your free oil changes. They will take care of you.

also check to see if your dealer gives free oil changs in general. I get the three free oil changes from scion plus one from my dealer as they give one to all new cars they sell (scion or not).

Yeah... i just did my 5000mi check up and you do not need any papers. BUT the check up cost 80 and they take 20 bucks off that for the "free" oil change part so you are paying 59.99 for them to move your tires around and glance at your breaks. yee ha. but you gotta do it to keep your warranty.

strange...they never made me pay for any of that. i mean, i get my oil changes done every 3000, and my tires rotated at 6000, but so far the only thing i've had to pay for was the rotation. they never said anything about extra stuff to keep my warranty.

Just got back, I asked about getting the sirius satellite kit and tuner and he told me $290. I asked if they price match from other dealers and he told me to show the dealers add (trdsparks) and they will match it....sweet.

yea the $50+ they are making you pay to "keep your warrenty" is BS.

i never payed for anything extra that i didnt want. i just drove up and said im here for my free oil change. and go ahead and rotate my tires which is only $22.
and on the bill it has the oil change with twenty-something point inspection/top off fluids at $0.00 cost, and the $19+tax rotation.
