    This is preventive, my sister didn't tow or drive under extreme conditions either. It's a bone stock car that gets loaded up for camping trips once or twice a year; yet she has an intermittent slip every once in a while for about 2-3 seconds.

    Thanks, good point, sad that they would charge about $150 just to spray a can of cleaner, you got me thinking that maybe from now on I need to start asking them exactly what are they doing for the cost of labor, it would likely be awkward for them to admit they spray a can of cleaner :LOL:

    PS: That brake resurfacing thing is a new one... With the amount of regenerative braking ability your car has they were probably cleaning them up from lack of use. Maybe they used a buffer on 'em and charged you $40 for a squirt of polishing compound?
