The light will go off on it's own" not,"Put a gas cap on and pull into the bay, I'll turn that pesky light off for $80."
I couldn't have said it better! And some mechanic's wonder why they get a bad rep, Duh! The one thing I don't understand is why are they charging anything at all, can you say "bumper to bumper warranty"? If I had a light come on in my new X, and they charged me $80 to fix it, I'd tell them to go pound sand in their ass.
