I thought transmissions in newer vehicles were sealed shut now and didn’t need fluid top ups?

Don't know about that, this Civic is 2017 and they said it needs servicing at 50k miles.

You paid $350 for checks? They didn’t adjust the alignment or change the fluids?

They did align and change fluids. But just the check is probably that price as well.
I definitely waited a bit too long so all this stacks up but their prices are actually pretty comparable with independent mechanics (would love to be corrected if anyone gets better in LA :). I should probably replace the air filters myself next time though.
