I’ve seen a lot of posts on the low costs of maintenance and lack thereof. Is their mandatory maintenance from the dealership to stay in good standing for warranty?

Tires, wiper fluid etc sound like things I could just do and avoid going in. I ask because some of the dealerships are about an hour away. May not be worth the trip.

Thanks!

    The past 4 years, the regular maintenance has been tire rotation and their full check and fluid top off. Tire rotation has been around 17 bucks every 7k miles or so.

    My extended warranty has paid for itself as there were some failures in parts that have cost more than what I paid for the extended warranty. The service techs have been way more laid back about the warranty than the sales person. I figure the real reason is the manufactures need better maintenance data and how the cars wear over time.
