i own a repair shop,and its about time for a good one,,i usually recommend doing them at or around 30 thousand miles ,,this way it keeps it running like a new one should but yes i would go ahead and do one on it now rather than wait,its probably going to be cheaper to now anyway since it wont need as much done to it,,but this is a good time to get it done,,good luck and have a good x-mas,,i hope this help,s.

about 63000 miles before tuneup. Look in the manual I can almost guarantee that your car will recommend 100k miles for a tune up. Which pretty much is just the spark plugs and wires. Now the oil change will have 2 intervals for your car. 5000 miles and 7500 miles. Depending on type of driving. Highway and long distance driving 7500 short stop and go driving go with 5000 miles. The brakes sound like a good price. But that is if they are doing pads and rotors. Just pads and turning rotors sounds a little high. should be closer to $75 for pads and turning rotors.

$120 for front brakes is cheaper than dirt if their grinding since you probably trashed the rotors. Expect to pay more.
As for the tune up and oil change, the maintenance intervals for this vehicle can be found in your owners manual. Indeed, 90% of the questions asked here could be answered if people took a few minutes to actualy read the information they were provided with the vehicle.
