I always do my own oil changes, the cost to buy the oil/filter versus shop doing it, was quite minimal saving. Not factoring your personal time to do it.

I was pretty surprised too, but the breakdown is somewhat understandable. It was only an oil change, and the totals were: $59.08 (parts) $95.97 (labor) $15.98 (misc), so $171.03 + tax = $191.56 total.
The second part of your post suggests you don't think it's worth doing it yourself since savings are minimal etc, so maybe that's a typo that you do your own oil changes?

Since it's only 1 year warranty remaining, and probably only 1 service needed, personally I'd just get the servicing done at the dealership for the peace of mind and then after the warranty expires, switch to DIY and keep receipts for parts and a detailed written log.

By my estimates there's at least 2 more oil changes left and a "Service #3", which by now I assume won't be cheap.
