Leasing and required maintenance

[kurt68]

I leased a 2015 Mazda CX-5 Touring AWD. Do I need to bring the car to Mazda for oil changes or can I do it my self? Or do I need to do the scheduled maintenance as called out in the Mazda's book? This is my first lease.

Thanks,

Kurt

Just keep your receipts if you do it yourself and proceed with Schedule one in your owners manual. Oil changes every 6 months or 7500 miles.

You need to read your lease. I assume that the previous answer is correct, but if it's not you can't very well tell Mazda that you did what you were told by a stranger on the internet vs what's in your contract. I don't understand asking strangers vs reading the legal document that you signed.

There should be no requirement that dealer provides all services. I can't imagine a contract these days including that but nothing would surprise me these days.

Magnuson Moss Warranty act should protect you in that regards.
