Hmm. Makes you wonder if the dealership did something.

Yes, I was wondering the same thing. I've always been curious and I should ask if they have legitimate certified Toyota technicians working there on Saturdays - because the only thing you can have done on Saturdays is oil changes. Or maybe just lot boys or rejects from Jiffy Lube.

Do you think driving on rough roads could cause the damage? My new job is on the other side of Indy and that section of the city has horrible roads due to dump trucks and semi's.

I don't believe so. The boots on my 09 still look like brand new and I drive on a lot of rough roads. (I was doing an oil change last weekend and always inspect the boots when I have it up on the lift to do so). As they age they can dry-out and become brittle, but this is premature for that to happen on a 2010.
