No, the link doesn't work for me either.

Drain the oil, change the filter, fill it with oil. It's been done this way for decades. Then rotate the tires. All of this is outlined in the maintenance guide. Instead of 3,000 mile intervals, it's now up to 5,000 miles. You'd think that someone could figure out during that time that they were getting close to their service interval and plan accordingly.

If you're already past due 1,500 miles for your FIRST service, you might as well just drive the car until it blows up...

...or trade it in on a car that you can afford to get serviced.

That link doesn't work because it's been truncated. That ellipsis in the middle has replaced part of the URL.

The full URL is often truncated when displayed on the screen. However, that link should have the full URL. Who ever gave you that URL copied the text on the screen rather than the URL for the page.
