Question Acura Dealer vs. certified mechanic to maintain warranty

Hello,

What is your opinion of using an acura dealer for 15k, 30k, 60k maintenance service versus a private certified mechanic that is not affilliated with the dealership.

Is a private certified mechanic acceptable for the 4 year/50k standard warranty and extended warranty, i.e. 7 year/80k through a third party such as Hendrick, PCS etc.

I am curious if this is acceptable to maintain a warranty, since there are several Honda/Acura mechanic shops in CA, with over six years of business. And there maintenance is the same as that mentioned under the owner's manual.

Thanks.

I always took my infiniti to another mechanic, and my warranty was fine. I dont see why Acura should be any different.

Yep, as long as you keep all your receipts you should be fine.
