Depends on what milage interval you're at. Mostly they'll change your oil, but some intervals call for tire rotations and fluid flushes. They also inspect your brakes and suspension, which means they look for stuff that looks worn out so they can replace it and charge you money (if you're out of warranty).

there is no need fo a 7500 mile maintenence. its basically just a oil change, and a tire rotation. best guess its going to cost you around the 130$ ball park.

At 7500 miles, just get an oil change and tire rotation. Do NOT let them talk you into anything else. Those two things together should be around $50 or less.
