Just looking at my receipt with multi-point inspection form they cite 
three areas of interior-exterior, under-hood and under-vehicle and in 
the latter mention boots.  Funny though that they check tire rotation 
which was not done.  When I paid the service writer mentioned it too but 
I told her I did not order it and they did not charge for it and she 
said since most people do it her comment was force of habit.

These were emails that I tossed but should have taken a better look at 
the source.
