Next time, call the dealer when your car is actually ready for service and book it for the next available time they have a loaner to give you. You'll find the experience much more pleasurable. I've been doing it this way for years over many different cars and have yet to have any type of problem.

Does this mean that if your car doesn't think it needs a service until way past 15k miles, they won't perform the change at 15k? I've noticed my car thinks it can go much further since I've been putting on a lot of freeway miles, but I still want it done under warranty after 15k. OP, sorry, not trying to hijack your thread, but the above statement made me curious.
