Never leased a car but I wouldn't be surprised. Dealers would want a car to turn around as a CPO w/records or at least a 'lease return'. However, I don't see how that would require it being done at a dealer. Having it done by any SAE certified mechanic-having place should count. Keep the proof. It's been a long time since I paid someone else to do a brake flush, but it was around $100.Pretty sure there’s a clause in your lease agreement that says you must keep up on your maintenance.
I'd shop around. $300 is a rip-off.
Some people probably never replace brake fluid and are ok. Day to day driving with a random panic braking occasionally even probably won't challenge old, scummy fluid with a high water content. If you ever drive aggressive though, you might find your fluid boiling and your brakes effectively failing when you need them most. It's a little crazy to me how people will drive cars on worn suspension and brakes that are ill maintained. Just because something can still stop at all doesn't mean it stops well anymore.
