Default Maintenance required soon

OK, I read FAQs, not there.
Maintenance required soon message started popping on the center display.
Unfortunately, it does not tell what kind of maintenance. Vehicle has 27 000 plus miles and had oil change done 2 000 miles ago. Oil meter was reset same time.
MOF, I brushed on scheduled maintenance screen and it said that vehicle still has approximately 6 000 miles to oil change.

Message does not have any numbers in it. Honda, eg, will do same message with a certain number to it, what points to which specifically item needs to be done.

How exactly do I determine what needs to be maintained then?

No one?

Went through every setting on vehicle display. In Messages says No messages.
No indicators otherwise.
No idea.

Even went through the thick manual that came with the car.
Not a word. Mentions OIL maintenance required but nothing on Maintenance required soon.
I simply reset minder. Scheduled minder. There are two options - Reset schedule minder and Oil maintenance minder.

Thank you for contacting Lexus.The Maintenance Required Soon message will display in your vehicle every 5,000 miles to remind you of scheduled maintenance.

Even if none is.

Thank you. Mine has 27 000 miles and pennies on ticker. Will you think, it's a bit farfetched to start encouraging a 30 000 miles maintenance NOW? Besides, it's sealed transmission, how you going to inspect ATF?
