Authorized dealer for a transmission fluid check
The fluid-check note says a dealer checks the fluid and, if required, adds it.

Automatic transmission fluid is 12.8 qt (12.1 L), footnote 1, approximate dry fill. It is not a service-fill quantity.
The designation table says code U is the ten-speed automatic transmission 10R80. The capacity row itself says automatic transmission fluid.
The maintenance note says transmission fluid should be checked by an authorized dealer and added by a dealer if required.
Front axle fluid is listed as 2.11 pt (1.0 L), and four-wheel-drive power transfer unit fluid as 23.7 fl oz (700 ml). The materials table that follows does not name a lubricant for either item, so this page does not assign one.
