Should I pay Prepaid Maintenance??
Has anyone prepaid for maintenance when they purchased a new Lexus? I just brought an RX and the dealer is pushing the prepaid maintenance plan I have a low mileage lease because I have a second vehicle just wondering if anyone sees the benefit in the plan?

While you can always go to Lexus for your service, you don't have to. Many people have found Toyota dealers are just as competent as Lexus and much cheaper. You can also go to any shop, as long as you trust them and keep all records of services you have done. Your call.

I would run fast from anyone asking to sell you a prepaid maintenance. Your first two maintenance services are free. I pay less than $410 each for our ES 300h and RX 450h for every 30,000 miles. I never go in an ask for a 10,000 miles or 30,000 mile service. They charge ridiculous amounts for a lot of inspection of things that do not need to be inspected. Every 10,000 miles the oil needs to be changed. Every 30,000 miles the brake fluid needs to be changed. At 30,000 miles the cabin and air filter need to be replaced. I do mine at 20,000 miles and cost $45 for both and take 5 minutes to change. Every 20,000 miles I replace the wiper inserts at $15 and again five minutes to change.
You can save even more money by getting the service done at your local Toyota dealership.

I would never do that. If you're leasing, correct me if I'm wrong, I believe the first two are free. A low mileage lease is what, 10-12 a year? Then you give it back, no?

Service/Maintenance Agreement worth it?
Anyone have experience with and/or know whether it's worth it to purchase the pre-paid maintenance or the "Luxury Plus" program is worth it? Dealer said the prepaid maintenance pays for itself if with the first few non-covered maintenance service (after year 1). The Luxury Plus covers parts and labor beyond manufacturer defects, so it covers wear and tear. The cost for that is $2295 for 5 years/60,000 miles.
