Brake Thickness

Just took car in for warranty repairs and transmission service @ almost 37000 mi. They say Brakes and Rotors need to be addressed. Observation is 4mm. How close is this? Yeah I know 4mm, mileage wise? Vehicle is not an everyday drive. I am planning a trip to New Orleans this weekend from ATL. Does this need to be addressed prior?
They also said Cabin and Air filters by next service (40000). Thx

Also had a problem with the back of passenger front seat separating. Thought it was a clip that came off. It was the seat bladder inflating more than it should. They are replacing.

I really doubt the rotors need replaced. Dealers can get overzealous with those. I bet just pads and you should go with Akebono for less dust on those 20's.
