With regards to general car maintenance, in most cases you cannot expect the dealer to call you when it is time for a warranty service. The dealer will contact you for regular maintenance, as they want you to come back into the dealership and potentially show you a new car while your vehicle is being serviced. So, you can expect cards in the mail, follow-up emails or phone calls from the dealer when it comes to regular maintenance but not when its time for a warranty service.
