I'd say:
Have you taken your car in for its first service?

That is ok and more straight forward.But if i have to ask from the point of view of object i.e car over here whether my two given questions are correct or not.

I'd say they're not correct.

Then how one asks that question from the point of view of object i.e car over here?

Krishna
