new car maintenance

[xiatian]

Have been driving old cars for many years, just got a new Mazda CX-5. The warranty book indicates the maintenance in the authorized dealership for the first 3 years is required for warranty purpose. But I really heard some very bad words about the dealer's service departments.

The user manual recommends Mazda Genuine Engine Oil, but I also saw some bad words about it. Any people have any experience with it?


Do you guys service the new car in the dealer's place or some other commercial garages?


Thanks.
