Oil change: warranty requirement vs. Salesman's recommendation

5000 miles maximum, with any vehicle that uses full synthetic engine oil.

Remember you have bought one of the worst three Asian made vehicles so maintenance is going be the key to how it lives.

The salesman just sells the vehicle. He has no idea how to maintain it! Follow the instructions in the owner's manual and the warranty booklet. Think of it this way, would you ask a Walmart employee how to care for the new clothes you just bought there? Probably not, you'd want to follow the instructions on the tag. Hope that helps! Jim
