I have a 2 year old car that was driven 1,000 miles as a dealership demo in Year 1, and 4,000 miles in Year 2 by me. Would you normally complete the 2 year recommended intermediate service (oil, filters, and brake flush) since it has been 2 years, but still very low mileage? Or only an oil change.

And if ever I need something fixed in warranty or some love from PCNA after my warranty has expired, they will look at the maintenance history first.

Yes I would do it, but I do my own maintenance, so Oil/Filter + Brake fluid fluid costs me about $100 using high end fluids.
Seeing someone on here get charged $550 for a Mobil 1 oil change... nope.

I would do the oil and oil filter. Buy one of these and to test for water content in your brake fluid to see if it should be changed or not: brake fluid tester

no need to follow that BS..
I run all rules, regulations, recommendations and practices through the filter of my gutt-feeling
no amount of research, development, scientific data and expert opinion can be more accurate than my own gutt-feeling

Follow time interval maintenance items. They're there for a reason.

I also do most of my own maintenance (air filters, oil, spark plugs, coilpacks, brakes) Brake fluid and Coolant I pay for as I don't have the tools/pumps for that stuff, but those services are typically not often and relatively inexpensive.
I change my oil every 3-5,000 miles. FCP euro gives me free oil
