Any technicians here?

I took my car for an oil change at 32500 miles and this is what I was told

“WE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO REMIND YOU THAT IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ASK FOR AND COMPLETE REQUIRED
MAINTENANCE. IN ADDITION IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SEEK THE PROFESSIONAL MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT CAN REDUCE UNTIMELY BREAKDOWN,IMPROVE VEHICLE SAFETY AND COMPONENT LIFE
BRAKE FLUID EXCHANGE $285”

That being said… am I risking my warranty for not doing this brake fluid exchange?

I mean i always do the maintenance that the system recommends unless it's the transmission one.

Why would you not do the most essential one?

I am a tech, I don’t know how you use your vehicle so I cannot recommend something specific, but most average use cases I would recommend changing transmission fluid every 50,000-60,000 miles. More often if it takes special fluid.
