Get a printout of the maintenance schedule. Then see what your Lexus dealership charges for the work. If you save money. Take the deal.
If you want to save money on maintenance. Take your free oil changes. Then go to a Toyota dealer for the rest. Thats what I do

Picked up last week a 2023 NX 350h. They asked about us buying this service. In three years of driving and 30,000 miles it would cost me $380. I think their price was $1,800 not sure because was not paying attention.
Breakdown:
3 oil changes $195 (I bring my Mobil 1 bought at Walmart for $24 and $6 Toyota oil filter bouught on line to the dealer and they charge me $35 labor.)
Brake fluid change $120
Air and cabin filter change $45 (bought on line takes even me less then five minutes to do both)
Wiper blade inserts $20 (bought on line takes 5 minutes)

Both local Lexus dealers and Toyota all let me bring my own oil. I do this for two reasons. Mobil runs a online rebate of $12 on the five quart jug that Walmart has for $24 bringing the net down to $12 a jug. The other more important reason is I want Mobil 1 in our vehicles. The local Service Manager told me the oil they use and sorry can not remember the name but it was a brand I heard of but was not a major brand like Mobil, Pennzoil, Castrol etc. He said if you come in and buy oil you get Toyota synthetic which is made by Mobil. They use 55 gallon drums which they can not get Mobil in these drums.
