  • At the free oil change at the Chevy dealership yesterday they found my hidden key fob in this magnetic holder (very strong magnet) attached to my chassis. To those who think it could fall off wrong assumption, you'd have to pry it off. I guess they couldn't open it and they used a hammer to smash it open where the hinges broke off so it is no longer functional. They probably thought it was some kind of tracking device, lol. Today I wrapped up the spare key fob in a zip lock sandwich bag and taped it up to weather-proof and zip tied it under the grill on the inside engine compartment along with the belt clip to the key fob. It is far enough away so to those who think the engine will start wrong assumption the engine does not start. I tried it and the dashboard says, "No key detected." BTW, the synthetic oil change and tire rotation was a $150 value, complimentary 1st service which ua_guy corrrectly called it. I asked if the 1st year of oil changes is complementary but only the 1st oil change is free.
