Help with maintenance record diagnostic

So I'm looking at a 2016 F56 with 18" rims, and there's this peculiar collection of records in the CarFax I'm trying to figure out. Car is at 25K miles currently, but here are the odd records:
1,156 miles - Tire condition and pressure checked, Tire(s) replaced
10,030 - One tire mounted, One tire replaced, Tire condition and pressure checked
12.800 - One tire mounted, One tire replaced, Steering/suspension checked, Brake fluid flushed/changed
23950 - Tire condition and pressure checked, Brake fluid flushed/changed

Does this not look odd? Seems excessive burn rate on the tires, and brake flushes twice in 25K miles?

Any ideas on what the problem could have been/ is? Anything to check on the test drive?

I'm thinking a warped rotor, but it seems like a early problem at 1K miles?

I would want all new tires. I had two brake flushes on my car in a few thousand miles because of some clerical errors. Best bet would be to ask the dealership if possible.

I wonder if they hit something, got the alignment all whacked out, never fixed it and it was messing with the brake sensor
