No, let's say u change your oil when the timer says 20% oil life and dont reset the timer. The timer will countdown to 0% and say that you need an oil change even though you really have 80% oil life. It's not like the "miles to empty" feature which resets itself whenever fuel is added. Some things still require a human's touch.

Check the oil level and look at the oil. If it is clean and at the correct level I would have the dealer reset the reminder. No biggie.

Just reset the maintenance minder and stop trying to overthink it.
