Default CPO and scheduled maintenance

I will be needing to get my 60k service done within the next month or two. Since our RX is a CPO, are we required to take it Lexus for maintenance to keep the CPO warranty, or can I take it to my regular indy mechanic?

I can take it to Lexus, no problem but I can save probably $300 to $400 off what the local dealer is going to charge me.

Will I have problems getting warranty work done later if it was maintained elsewhere?

You can take it anywhere you like. Keep all records of 3rd party service.

agreed but i've read some pretty brutal stories of people getting f'd over because of this. If you are not one to keep very detailed records and cant provide receipts i would let lexus do it.

Thanks guys. I think I will just keep all my service records and should be okay. Now that I think of it, there is some law protecting car owners from being denied warranty claims if the car is maintained somewhere other than the dealer. I read that on the BMW forum. Will have to find the link.
