I'm on planning on getting an oil change soon, I tried looking into the main skid but they don't label specific intervals times for other fluid. I’m not sure if I should get a coolant flush, everything stills runs good, but the car in 2022, but I don’t know should get it flush or not. Now for same for the others fluids same with brake fluid and transmissions fluid. Verging still ride smooth but don’t when to get them change, the car have 32k miles. What will you guys do in this situation? Also what other maintenance stuff would you consider getting change at this mileage 32k, 2009?

A 2009 with 32k miles!! Wow.
I am going to assume you change the oil on a schedule, so we wont get into that. (I do every 6k miles with a high quality full synthetic and OEM filter.)
Coolant - 5 years
Brake Fluid - 4 Years The best way is to also purge the ABS module, that requires a scan tool to activate the ABS pump.
Transmission - 25k miles (drain and fill which only changes about 50% of the fluid) I do not recommend a flush at any point.
Other things to look at. Tires for sure! Hopefully your tires are not original. Brake pads do deteriorate with time too. If they are original, then its definitely worth looking at. I would guess that the original TPMS sensors are dead by now too. Air filter at 20k miles.
I also do a cleaning on the Throttle Body and MAF sensor at 50k intervals. A bit down the road for you yet.
In general, I prefer to stick to OEM fluids, or at least a high quality brand that meets or exceeds manufacturers specs. ie, I like the prestone DexCool coolant.

I think I'd tell you to change anything wet.. pull the tires and check the age dates.. I hope they're not OE.. take a look at the break pads looking for wear and rust jacking
I got new tires in 2023, my main concern is I don’t know when the coolant and brake fluid last been change when I got it from 2022. Do you think I should get the fluids replace or until I notice signs?
