Was wondering about this. From what people say here, I think detailed records is the most important thing.
1) My Toyota Tacoma that I leased I got free service for 2 years/20,000 miles and had a TON of warranty work performed (long story, truck sucked). As soon as my 20,000 miles was up I went to an independent shop who I trust. He keeps detailed records.
2) My Hyundai Elantra CPO I used the dealer for their free oil change and that's it
3) My 2017 CPO CX-5, I'm really really in a mental pickle about what to do. My dealer gives free oil changes for a year, and I'm under limited warranty for 12,000 miles/1 year. I'm leaning towards forgetting about the free oil changes and just taking it to my actual mechanic. I know that the invoice I get is detailed enough that it shouldn't be an issue. I need to get my suspension checked out and if it's determined anything is wrong with it I'll bring to the dealer to verify warranty work.
