Hi jim. Service coupons and discount offers run in cycles. Sometimes there are offers we need, sometimes there are not. Plus, the pandemic and the commodity shortages caused by it have everything in a mess. All you can do is look around and hope there is an offer for what you need, at a Dealership where you can use it. Alternately, prices are often negotiable, so you can call (or stop by) the Service Department at your local Dealership and ask for a better price than their current one. Or if there is a coupon for another Dealership, ask your Dealer if they will meet or beat the other Dealer's price. Or use the other Dealer. Keep in mind that you can also use Ford Dealerships for routine service (and some other services), if there are offers for "The Works" available. Generally speaking, some of the Lincoln perks may not/will not be available, such as a complementary loaner, etc. Good luck.

drolds1 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) The last "works" coupon was from my dealer and the price is now $69.95. Interestingly enough, that includes full synthetic oil, which was never included before. That's actually quite a bargain when you compare the cost of similar service for imports. My friend just paid $129.95 for his 2007 Lexus, and it didn't include what the Ford/Lincoln deal does. At M-B and BMW, it runs into the hundreds.

Been very happy taking the Z & Truck to Ford, often find "The Works" on sale for less than the usual $70 or so. Also, since I made sure I took the time to introduce myself to the Service Writers and always bring 2 doz actual bakery doughnuts when I drop off a vehicle for service, they know I'm a journeyman mechanic and don't cop an attitude if a vehicle that had say, 1mm left of usual rotor thickness on the last courtesy inspection now has new pads & rotors on that end, or two new tires on the front, etc. edit; likewise the GM dealer I bought my Solstice from back in '07 (including doughnuts). Haven't found a local Stude dealer, though ? Edited October 7, 2021 by 17MKZ3.0TT drolds1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
