Just wondering if anyone else has continued with a functional TPMS system and OEM sensors and has RECENTLY gone to a Chrysler dealership to have a relearn procedure done after getting new sensors.

I called at least 4 local dealers and all but one quoted me an hour labor. One of them originally said it would be 1/2 labor when I first called and then quoted me an hour when I called back to make an appointment. After I pointed that out they said they would do it for 1/2 hour charge earlier, they agreed to do it for 1/2 hour charge. Anyway, this dealer is one that I don't particularly like or trust though I had never conducted any business transaction with them before. Their labor rate is $140/hr probably because they offer extra frills (lifetime oil changes, loaner cars, lifetime engine, etc.) to their regular customers (i.e., the ones that buy their cars there). So I'm thinking $70 is more than the service should really cost, but cheaper than paying $120 or more somewhere else. So I had them do the service, which seems to have done the trick - no more annoying TPMS light.

However, my visit was still a little annoying because the dealer had to borrow a part from another dealer (I am assuming the DRB III Crossfire software card?) which they didn't have when I arrived and told them that I had informed them when making my appointment that I would wait for my car. It was two hours until the car was ready because they actually had someone drive 10 miles each way to pick the Crossfire-specific item up. When I got my bill it was actually for approximately $87 which was a little irritating but I didn't comment. It turns out they charged for various bogus extras ($1 electronic storage fee?,$7 documentation fee?, $8 supplies fee?, and $1 environmental fee?). Kind of ridiculous, no?

I'd be curious to learn what anyone else has recently paid.

Also, since my Crossfire had not been to a dealer's service center in close to 10 years, I was disappointed by the extent to which Chrysler and its dealers are seemingly abandoning the Crossfire when they no longer even own the tools specific to the car. I can't really think of anything other than TPMS relearning that would require my return anyway, so at worst it's once a decade, or until I join the TPMS disable crowd.
