Factory Service Providers
I do not live near a Lexus dealer. On my 2016 Lexus 450H my 15000 mile service is due.
I have the list for the service items for the service. Who can I use to provide the service so I do NOT hurt my warranty.
I was told I could use someone like Jiffy Lube to do warranty approved service.
My only complain with Lexus is the frequency of their punitive maintenance service program to provide a bunch of checks, and an oil change with excessive charges.

The 15,000 miles checkup is a tire rotation and and bunch of items you do not need inspected. Go anyway and get a tire rotation.
Every 10,000 miles an oil change and tire rotation is needed. At the Lexus dealership this should be less than $100. Every 30,000 miles the brake fluid needs to be changed and again about $100. Every 20,000 miles change the air and cabin filters. This combined takes five minutes and the air filter can be bought on line at Lexus Parts World for $18. The cabin air filter can be bought at Walmart for $18, It is the Fram Fresh Breeze #10285 with carbon and baking soda to filter the air. Wiper blade inserts again can be bought at Lexus Parts World for $20 for both refills and takes five minutes to replace. You are done until 100,000 miles. At Lexus Parts World use cl5 in the promo code for 10% discount. If you go in and ask for the 10,000, 15,000, 20,000 30,000 maintenance you will be paying big bucks for a lot more items you do not need checked and inspected. Once a year replace the key fob battery cr2032. Keep receipts for everything. I take my oil filter and 5 quart jug of Mobil 1 purchased at Walmart for $24 to my local Toyota dealer and they charge me $20 labor. This has worked for me with both our cars for way over a million miles.

I second tomtom's suggestion. And NO, don't ever take anything to a jiffy lube. Ever. Trust me.

No Jiffy Lube or similar oil changing shops. Check to see if a Toyota dealership is close by. Agree that some of these things you can do yourself to save money but some folks just don’t have the time. I purchase all OEM parts on Amazon and take them with me to my Lexus dealer to install on my service appts. Toyota’s labor is a little cheaper I go there depending on what I need done. Just a note, my Lexus dealer will only install OEM parts to honor the warranty.
