brakes pads only 13k miles, battery, serp belt!, too?!

On my 02 Linear wagan, 2.3t, 33k miles, in today at dealer for 30k service and SID replacement -- they just called and also "found" the following --
*battery below "specs" (warrantee item)
*serpentine belt cracked, will cost $150, pulleys "absolutely" ok, though
*front brake pads at minimum
I just had the brake pads replaced 8 months ago, they looked it up, which means they have gone only 13k miles before being at 5 mm (what she told me)?!? How is that possible?? (originals went 20k miles)
I told them not to do the pads -- since next month I'll put the snow tires on, and if really needed -- will have it done then.
Also -- I want to be *sure* about the serpentine belt and pullies -- from what I read, 30K would be premature to replace pullies right?
I had a big problem last time I went to this dealer -- but they are the closest. (I'd go elsewhere -- but have a 16 yo child in the hospital -- so this is a low priority given everything I have going on).
Any thoughts?
