They probably engineered so much cush in the battery system for how much they thought the battery would degrade and it hasn't come any where near that.
I'm sure the battery has worn, it's just not showing up, which is a good thing.
My wife has 230,000 miles on hyundai OE brake pads and they are still have at least 2/3 the pad left. So 400k on a mostly highway driven car does not surprise me at all.
Really all it takes is for you to pull in for an oil change and the shop to say "you need mew brakes" and 90% of people will get them because they have no idea how to judge remaining brake life.
