Did you bring the car in early and pay for a second oil change? At 10,000 miles you should only be on your second (break in at 1200 being the first). Anyways, I really doubt anything you listed, other than engine oil, will be changed at 10,000 miles.

I'll be surprised if they change anything at all. I just had my 10k service done. They said oil was changed, filter changed and car vacuumed. Everything was done in about 2 hours... I got in the car and it was clearly not vacuumed... More like much more dirt added to the carpets (unless he ment reverse vacuum). I opened the hood right away and saw that the oil filter wasn't touched since the last time I changed oil at 5k (same layer of dust as on the engine cover). I doubt they even changed the oil. So I ordered oil and filter the same day and will be doing the oil change this weekend.

The great news.... They did indeed change windshield wipers, even though they didn't use the original ones that I had from when I bought the car.

Gotta love dealerships.

Oil and filter at 10,000.

During 25,000 CBS and spark plugs, oil, and air filter replaced under warranty.

Actually the oil change intervals is 10k miles or 366 calendar days. So you could have had your 1200 mile service done and then 366 days later regardless of the miles.
