Both the engine air filter and the cabin air filter replacement are maintenance tasks that you can easily perform yourself, despite the vehicle's importance; to replace the engine air filter, simply unscrew the screws securing the cover of the filter housing located at the rear of the engine compartment, at the top of the engine; for the cabin air filter, you need to access the trunk located at the front of the vehicle, just below the windshield; once the front hood is open, unscrew the screws securing the plastic grille on the passenger side and proceed with the filter replacement.
