08 9-5 91K miles advice on front end service ?

I went in for a front end alignment a few thousand miles back and was told I needed front control arm rear bushings. My car is a CPO with about 9K left and 5 months left/confirmed by the dealership it would be covered. I dropped it off today and was informed I need tires and they recommend a 90K service/safety check but the bushings are fine(800 for tires and $350 for 90K check). I spoke to the front end shop and the tech remembers the car and states yes they need to be replaced. I phone the dealership and ask to recheck and they confirm everything is ok. Keep in mind I have 60k tires with maybe 25K on them with quite a bit of tread left last I checked. What is the tell tale of the bushing failing ? Just trying to get this handled during the CPO period.
