Is this dealer trying to s$%^# me?

I bought a 04TL CPO this past December with around 38K miles. I made a service appointment to get the wiper and power steering recalls done and just got a call saying that I need about $1300 dollars worth of maintenance done. Since buying the car, I have put about 5k miles on it (43,2xx on it now) and I was told, I need new brake pads, rotors, power steering fluid, air filter, and cabin air filter.

My questions are,

1)shouldn't most if not ALL of these items been addressed during Acuras 150 point CPO inspection?

2)If the pads and rotors need replacing after only 5K miles of driving, then they had to have been under the accpetable limit when I bought the car right?

3)With the power steering leak recall, what is the fix exactly? Would it require flushing the PS fluid anyways?

Really feel like they either screwed me when i bought it, and the 150 pt insepciton was not done, or the Service dept, just looked at miles on my car and assumed it needed all this. I'm pikcing it up tomorrow, and thinking of speaking to the salesman I bought the car from.
