Leased vehicles maintenance
MB's recommended maintenances such as service A,B are mandatory for leased vehicles? I dont feel like I really need those services due to my mileage is very low. Can I just change engine oil instead of having full service A?
Hope you guys have a nice day and drive safely.

"The terms of your First Class Lease require you to have your vehicle serviced as recommended by the manufacturer and have all necessary repairs made. Refer to your Owner's Manual for specific maintenance policies and schedules."
and per lease return guide "Missing Items Check for the original equipment and verify that scheduled maintenance
is up to date."
Mercedes requires maintenance be performed at a mileage or yearly schedule, whichever occurs first. You are on the hook for whatever the "required" maintenance is based on time interval, I doubt you have to perform "recommended" service but I would have that clarified by your SA,
Moreover, when shopping around for Lease Return MB's I found several that had the 20,000 or 30,000 service days before they were turned in, so despite your low miles you are on the hook for the service

You must do the services on the intervals indicated by the gauge cluster (at least once per year regardless of mileage). You do not have to do the services at your MB dealer, but keep your receipts if you don't.
