Did you change the CVT oil? Or did they tell you it's life time oil

Thankfully, parts and labour are covered by Toyota under factory warranty but it leaves me wondering WTF happened on a Corolla with less than 150hp and 75,300KM mostly highway driven? I expect this on some European marquee or a Nissan, but not a Toyota. I’m pretty cheezed and will avoid cars with a CVT for years to come. I really think I got unlucky with this. Karma for making fun of BMW I guess.
