Is it safe to drive the car over the 1200 mile limit by a couple of hundred miles without the break-in service? Or, should I arrange for alternate transportation.

Thank you for your insights in advance.
I won't comment on whether or not you should go over the breakin mileage limit, but no way should it take 4-5 hours. For me, as well as others I know personally, it took just a little over an hour from the time the car arrived at the dealer.
Took my dealer about an hour to perform the service. I waited.
