2007 maintenance schedule? - 2/1/2007 4:20:04 PM    shugct   Posts: 4 Joined: 2/1/2007 Status: offline We got a beautiful 07 Sonata in September and went in for our 7500 mile maintenance. I am in sticker shock after that service and looking at the "required" routine maintenance. Every 7500 miles is a $100 to $500 service. I looked on the Hyundai USA web site and there maintenance is reasonable.  Is our dealership trying to hose us? Sure looks like it. Can I get factory mainentance schedule anywhere?? The one from the dealership looks like theirs, not necesssarily from Hyundai. Post #: 1

The dealers will even try to put nitro in your tires. I think the 15 K service is about 300 bucks. I will only do what the book says.The rest is a rip off .Don't forget to rotate the tires make them last . My GLS Michelin tires cost about 165 each. I rotate them at least every 8 K miles .Most tire places will do this for about 20 bucks .                                                              John (in reply to shugct) Post #: 3

I only schedule is from the dealer, a small 6-8 page booklet of list with estimated price, The price with the mega bucks service list. Yes, they apparently charge to inspect. We paid $97 for oil change and filter , lube and rotate 2 tires plus inspections . Ouch! Which book do you have with the factory schedule?
