Do I really need to spend the $240 for the B-1 Service codes when all it probably needs is just an oil change and tire rotation? The car is at 12,000 miles and the service code came up as oil change needed with a B-1 code which the manual says will have their mechanic checking everything. Its a relatively new car so why would it need such an extravagant service?

I would say that everything should be under warranty
