my mother was telling me her dentist got her this way today. "called to remind" so mom took lil sister in too.

of course they found work to the tune of like 750 out of pocket her insurance wont cover.

mom was like "why do you suppose they would call me and want to make an appointment today"

I was like because you pay. you stress out hard about paying until its finished and they like out of pocket the money.

I'll never pay someone to change my oil.

I get a mailing every now and again telling me about the great deals on parts for my "JEEP" from a local dealer.

It may be that you sent in a warranty card and you are on a list that they are working from. As above.

I used to think that way but since buying an 07 in 09, dealer has been sending me invites for $4.95 OLF. Guess they think they'll sell other service or parts. They just don't know how cheap I am. They even wash and vacuum it every visit.
