Rear Brakes 9 3

Have a 2006 9-3. Had the car for Oil Change at a Saab dealer 10 days ago for service, oil change and whatever else they check. Today I took it to the dealer I bought the car from for some rattle in the passenger door and to put on this paint treatment that came with the car and is applied every 6 months for free. I get a call from the service guy telling me that the rear brakes are down to 3 mm and need to be replaced at the tune of $ 325.00. The front brakes according to him are perfectly fine. The car has 18 400 miles. That makes no sense to me. Front brakes wear at a much higher rate than the rear. Has anybody had a similar experience with the rear brakes being shot way before the front at that relatively low mileage.
