Does skipping scheduled maintenance void my warranty?
It can, if a manufacturer or dealer can show a failure traces back to a skipped service.

How do I know what maintenance my car actually needs?
Your owner's manual lists the manufacturer's mileage and time-based schedule. A good shop checks that schedule against your car's actual mileage rather than pushing a generic list of services that may not be due yet.
