Looking to get a used M4 but was this one abused?

So I should preface this by saying that I know carfax doesn’t give all the details but I was hoping to take a look at this used m4 sometime next week.

My only concern is that it doesn’t seem like it has its break in service done at all? It seems to show it’s first service at 4,4469 but I can’t imagine someone would go almost the first 5k miles without doing a break in service so what am I missing here?
Obviously I need to get the service history records but based on what I’m seeing something doesn’t seem to add up.

Seconded. If the powertrain warranty hasn't already been voided, it can be at any time. I would not want that--or the potential underlying damage that is the reason for the policy--hanging over my head.
