Probably for an oil change but I'm at 70% oil. Should I still go in for service? They are also offering me a multi-point inspection, should I come in to take the multi point inspection?

On a new car?
the oil is still good, and the service should be based on your mileage.

Yes, but a certified used 2012 Honda Accord. I believe it's based on my mileage but should I go even though my oil is at 70%? The lady I spoke with said that the oils should be changed when it reaches 15%. And, the reminder would be displayed on my dashboard's display.

If you are going by the oil % on the dash, just take it in and be done. Nothing we can tell you here will make any difference.

do you know when the last oil change actually was? with my accord it's usually about 5000 miles when the oil life reaches 15%, if I recall correctly. if you're unaware when the last oil change was, I would just get it changed to prevent any problems from occurring.

I was thinking that but the rep I spoke to said to not come in until I get a display notification for service.
