********. Pretty well every 'fleet' car would still be under warranty -
so it would be the car makers who would be bleating.


Its not unusual to find a fleet car that has 60k on the clock and has
never had its oil cap even removed. Nor any servicing wahstosver done on
it at all.

The *******s simply run em trade em like that.

If you are lucky, someone tipped in a couple of pints at 50k miles when
the warning light came on.

Then 'extended' oil change intervals have no effect at all?
